    Bodyguard 2.0 easier on older hands

    I'll be 83 next month and I found that after a couple hundred rounds, the recoil spring seemed to get a lot softer. The mags too have gotten easier to load, but the 12 rounder I don't think will ever be easy to load. Doesn't matter as I load one down iun the mags anyhow.

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    Yes, my reloads "plunk", they just don't want to run up the feed ramps into the chamber.

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    Good info skipperjb. I don't think the BG2's are throated enough and the bullet gets stuck in the rifling.

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    I would never use reloads for self defense carry, but I'm sure as hell not going to shoot high priced defensive ammo for plinking or range ammo.

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    Thank you WYO for your insight. I took the gun apart this morning to clean and found no problems that I could see. I removed the extractor to check it out and there were no nicks or damage to it. The loads were 3.0 grains and 3.3 grs of Win 231 with a Lyman 95 gr cast bullet. The extractor...

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    I ran 175 rounds of the same reloads thru it when I first got it wjth no problems. So what caused this 100 rds to be different?

    Problem with my new BG 2.0 extracting spent brass.

    I put another 100 rds of my reloads thru it today and on the second 50 rds, I started to have problems with it extracting. It would pull the empty about halve way out and then the extractor would jump off the case. this would cause the slide to jam with the round in the magazine trying to...

    Lee 358-105 SWC in the BG 2.0?

    Well, I got it to work. It has to be seated with the top band flush with the case mouth. I also had to size them .356 dia. for them to cycle. Still some playing around to do with them, but they will work.

    Lee 358-105 SWC in the BG 2.0?

    Anybody shooting this bullet in there S&W BG 2.0? I can't get them to chamber as they jam into the top of the barrel and seem to be trying to go in at a steep angle. Any help or suggestions would be great, Thanks.

    Cast in the S&W BG 2.0?

    Any body shooting cast bullets in the BG 2.0? I shot 50 rds of my .380 reloads the other day without a hitch. Gun was brand new. The load was 3.0 grs of Win 231 with a 95 gr Lyman 358242 bullet. After getting use to the gun, I was able to hit the 8" steel plate at about 8 yds. The load seemed a...

    Why does my recoil rod stick out so far on my BG 2.0?

    Do you have to register your gun with S&W before you contact them? I didn't see any forms or numbers to call in the box when I bought it.

    New BG 2.0

    The slide feels very gritty when you pull it back and forth. It will smooth out no doubt after some shooting.

    New BG 2.0

    Well I bought it a couple days ago and have been cleaning and polishing the fee ramps. It really feels gritty and it is very hard to rack. I got the 10 rd mag fully loaded but not the 12 rd. Could only get 11 in. It will be awhile before I get to shoot it as I have some other things going on...

    Cast in the BG 2.0

    I just use regular lube and water droped wheel weights and have shot them in my Ruger LCP 2 and never had leading. Just wanted to know if there's any problem with feeding or any other problems shooting cast. Thanks for the reply.

    Thinking of a new BG 2.0

    I'm close to a RK. Both RK and Dunham's have them in stock, but I'll wait awhile before I go look.

    Thinking of a new BG 2.0

    Yes Beju your right. I'm going to wait a couple of weeks and hope that newer ones that were made this year will be in stock as I'm sure they will.

    Thinking of a new BG 2.0
