.380

[lmacrichter]

If you were going to buy a .380 what would you get and why?

 

[amd6547]

Beretta 84

 

[Ματθιας]

Colt Government 380.

 

[autogun]

Seecamp or Ruger Lcp--because very small, reasonably light and go bang when I squeeze w/o fail. YMMV

I must jump in here. I would buy another Taurus 738 / 380acp. Size, weight, price, dependability (for me and mine), smooooooooooooth clean-break trigger, last cartridge hold back on the rack. What is not to like!!!

Just my humble but most accurate opinion of course!!! LOL!!!

Thoughts?

CZ83 in 380 acp. I like the metal pistol plus it's double action on the first shot sold me on it.

 

[Adk.IBO]

Colt XSP. Ambi safety, rail for small light or laser, 1911 function which means SA only, sights that can be upgraded, and they're available.

Stay safe, John

 

[Rustyt1953]

I have a Bersa Thunder and an LCP.

Reliable, slim, compact and deadly.

 

[Model 52]

My Stainless, Colt Govt 380

[loknload]

I have the Ruger LCP and use it for pocket carry, also own a PPK as well.

 

[Shorty 45 MK2]

SIG P232. Because it is very accurate and slim.

Colt GM .380. Because low recoil and it's a baby 1911 and I'm not carring a C&L pistol in my pocket!

The main reason to carry a .380auto is for concealabilty, and nothing hides in your pocket like a Ruger LCP in a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster. Just sayin'.

 

[Dennis The B]

In this order:

• Colt Government Model .380
• Beretta Model 85FS
• CZ 83
• Sig/Sauer P232

They're all fine pistols. I tried the Walther PPK/S, but the hammer bite is bad. You may also want to consider a Browning BDA .380.

 

[shamuscull]

Kahr P380 very concealable long smooth trigger and nice finish....perfect pocket pistol.

 

[10mmauto]

Walther PPK.

Cachet.

 

[Marshwheeling]

CZ 83. I'd rather have an 82, but if not, the 83 is close enough.

 

[sheepdawg]

Ditto, CZ83

 

[Wishoot]

LCP.

Inexpensive
Reliable
Accurate
Easy to carry
Ruger service (if necessary)
