    BG380, What am I doing wrong?

    I have used mostly Federal ammo. I too break the gun down after each use and give it a good cleaning. I have not pulled the mag apart but will do that later today. No, I don't use WD-40 on any of my guns and follow the S&W direction on oiling. Thanks for the advice.

    BG380, What am I doing wrong?

    No, I only have the one mag. They are, so far, hard to find. I did notice oil on top of the mag where the first round sits when I first loaded the gun on Friday. I need to strip it down and give it a good cleaning. I also noticed that the recoil spring fits either way and I wonder if that...

    BG380, What am I doing wrong?

    I own a EAF series BG380 that I purchased new back in January 2011. Thus far, I have put about 450 rounds through it. The last two times I have fired the gun I have noticed an increase, one out of six rounds failing to load. The gun fires, ejects normally and the new round hangs up. I tap...

    Sigma trigger pull and travel length

    I have had a Sigma 9mm for 4 months now and I love the gun. I also own a BG380. These guns have two distinct purposes. For the pure joy of just shooting the Sigma is tops. For me it's as different as driving a Chevy Chevette (BG380) and then moving up to a Cadillac. going from a Chevy Chevette

    Bodyguard 380 Fireing Problem

    I have had my BP380 less than a month. I have fired 150 rounds through it and not one FTF. I used Federal Premium and Federal Eagle that I purchased at my local WalMart. I did have about 5 falure to loads where the gun fired, ejected the shell casing and then the new round hung up.

    Bodyguard 380

    FYI, I took my Bodyguard 380 to the range this morning for the first time and shot 150 rounds of FMJ, 95 grain ammo. I shot a box of Federal American Eagle, Federal Champion and Speer Lawman. It was cold at the range in the high 20's. During the ninety minutes I was there I had six jams where...

    Bodyguard 380

    If you think it's hard to take out wait until you try to put it back in the first time ;-) I have a EAF and it came out ok but it took me a half-hour the first time to get it back in. Follow the instructions to the letter. When you go to put it back in hold the gun barrel down so that it is...

    Cabelas lists new .380 bodyguard $349

    I too saw the ad and wrote Cabella's on Monday to check on the BG 380's availability as I was going to drive the 100 miles to the store to pick one up. They responded yesterday that it was not in stock. Last night I was able to purchase the gun for $349 at my local sporting goods store in...

    Anyone in the Northeast PA area?

    Snubb, I live in Mountaintop. Right now I use the state firing rage off of Routes 29 and 118. I am still looking to join a more local range/gun club if you know of any. I bought my Sigma 9mm this past October and thus far I am enjoying it. Last night I bought the S/W Bodyguard pistol in...
