Last week I ,through a stroke of luck, was standing in my local dealers shop talking to the owner when the UPS truck made its daily delivery. As he opened the box the distributor had included one of these new J frames.

I can tell you after 40 years of owning various J frames that this is the best improved weapon I have owned. The cylinder latch is on top rather than on the side and the laser is built in and easy to operate. It is light and well balanced and easily fits into a side pant pocket. Shoots true and mild for a seasoned shooter.

Comes in a very nice fabric case similar the the Ruger LCR but is packaged in a cardboard box like those of old and not the plastic blue locking case.

Cannot wait for the bodyguard .380 to appear.
