Any recommendations for a laser cartridge compatible with a Bodyguard 2? There are several cartridges for 380s on Amazon however, in the reviews seems that many of them are not compatible with small 380s.

I had a laser cartridge that worked fine in my LCP Max but would not work in my Bodyguard 2.0. It fires all ammo just fine.
 
I have a couple of Quantum XG Laser Cartridges by G-Sight for 380ACP and 9mm applications. I had used the 380 in a 380EZ and it also works well in the Bodyguard 2.0. They also have a free app you can download for recording shot groups.

I think they're great for dry-fire practice and could help with POA/POI sight adjustments. Mine is serveral years old - came in a black box - but didn't see it on Amazon. Looks like it's still available directly from G-Sight.

I've got one for 380 that I got off E-bay. No idea the brand name but it came in a little black metal box with a couple extra batteries and another back (that has the cushion "firing primer) for about twenty bucks or so. I've got one for 380 and 9mm, and one for 45 acp around here somewhere.

The 380 works fine in my Bodyguard. I can't imagine why someone would say they don't except maybe it's a little long for the ejection port. I have to shake it a bit to get it to drop out or just let it drop out the magazine well. Going in is not a problem. Just push it in with a finger. Once it's in, there is NO chance of getting live ammo in there. A "Bic" type ink pin works as a rod to push it out of the chamber. A cleaning rod will work too, but the plastic pen might be easier on the laser bulb. The flat side, not the point of course.

NOTE! Make sure you don't get a laser boresighter. (I made that mistake once) Those send a continuous beam and are on/off. You want a training cartridge that shoots a burst of light when the hammer/striker falls. Different animals.

I use mine most every day. I'm looking for one in 30 Super Carry, but with no luck. I doubt anyone makes one.
