I get a kick out the people who don't think a BG380 is capable of killing a bad person, it will do the job just fine. It is my pocket gun of choice for everyday CC. It is not likely your going to end up in a multiple magazine shoot out if you do it right it will be 2 shots and the bad guy hitting the floor. I am going to check out the new XD S for a in the truck console back up to the 380. when it starts showing up in stores since I don't enjoy using Kimber Pro Carry II for CC.
