    Would It Be Wise to WAIT to Buy a Bodyguard 2.0?

    You make some good points. I have this gun in the rotation as it's a very easy pocket carry, weighs very little and its very small. Sometimes I want that. And it's got a pretty good ammo capacity. I am well aware of the limitations and accept them. Including the fact that it's a .380. However...

    Would It Be Wise to WAIT to Buy a Bodyguard 2.0?

    I think it seems like there are a lot of problems...because all you see here is people coming in to report an issue - and ask for help because they have an issue. People with zero issues don't post much. I have not seen any stats on what percent have issues. So no way to be 100% sure, but if...

    Why are people more cautious carrying a chambered bodyguard 2.0?

    I got mine with the safety. It was a little stiff to operate at first but it's fine now after a little use. In my view if you are carrying for defense, you need to have one in the chamber. A lot of others will tell you the same. Things can happen very fast and you may not have time (or be in a...

    Bodyguard 2.0 buying guide

    Based on a problem I had with a new one in roughly the same timeframe, check the trigger pull carefully. Pull it real slow as if you are very carefully aiming and want to eliminate any jerking...the trigger on mine was fine on a regular amount of trigger force but when I did it real slow, it...

    Bodyguard 2 trigger question

    I was not happy with a pistol that had a substantial trigger issue right out of the box. I contacted S&W and they said to send it in. The sight wasn’t right either so I asked them to align it. They replaced the trigger bar, that fixed the trigger issue. . And they aligned the sights. Gotta love...

    Bodyguard 2 trigger question

    I talked to S&W about the issue, they wanted me to send it in. It's in TN now, will update once I get it back. Also my pistol had the sight alignment issue so I asked them to address that as well. Thanks for the replies folks

    Bodyguard 2 trigger question

    When I pull the trigger slowly the striker does not fire. Not until I pull a bit more after the trigger is already hard back against the stop. I can hear the spring and the snap of the striker at that point.

    Bodyguard 2 trigger question

    Thanks for the reply - that is not the issue here. When I pull the trigger just a bit more briskly, it functions correctly every time. That is what happened when I tested it before buying. But when I pull it slowly as you would when carefully aiming, I feel and hear a click that almost sounds...

    Bodyguard 2 trigger question

    New bodyguard 2, testing the trigger, dry fire it - when pulled slowly the trigger snaps and you would expect it to fire, but the striker does not fire - the trigger is full back against the stop....I have to apply more pressure after the snap to get the striker to fire. Its feels like its a...
