Default BODYGUARD 380 TRIGGER

Does anyone have a M&P bodyguard 380 trigger upgrade that you really like?

Galloway Precision makes a lot of aftermarket stuff for the Bodyguard. But messing with this particular trigger is not a good idea. Some people have reported loss of reliability, particularly light strikes. The Bodyguard is a close up, self defense pistol. I put them all on a paper plate easily at 15 yards with mine. Up close point and shoot distances the group is smaller than my fist. Good enough for me.

Yeah. I did buy their improved metal magazine catch. With the factory plastic and then metal, the magazine would fall out under recoil. It wasn’t me hitting the mag release. The Galloway part solved that, although you do have to press the mag release as you insert the mag, but once it’s in it ain’t coming out until you want it to.

It's made with a heavy DAO trigger for a reason. Leave it alone.
