bodyguard 380 range time

[CRJeff]

Second day at the range with the new bodyguard 380, now have 200+ rounds through it, American eagle, ultramax, federal, even ultramax lead, no light strikes or fail to fires whatsoever.
The trigger is fine no problems, when target shooting I take up 50% of the trigger length then fine tune the target and finish the shot. I polished the feed ramp like should be done with every new weapon. factory sights are coming off for XS big dots tonight.
With that said we were shooting 6" steel knockdowns at 16 yds and had no problems even with factory sights. Great little gun!

Is it my CZ SP 01 tacticle? NO! but I'm never comparing it to that, what it is is a great conceal pistol, small thin and shoots great and on target everytime. We even moved back to 22 yds and kept our groups within 8", That will get the job done. Stick with fed primers and you'll never have a light strike issue.

Looking forward to the enjoyment of carrying the bodyguard often especially in summer.

When you get the new sights show us a picture.I have over 1300 round thru mine not one hiccup.

 

[CRJeff]

I sure will, I have a Cooks trigger guard with belt clip holster coming, minimal and just the width of the bodyguard, I'm so tired of holsters and their added bulk, I've also used versacarry, this will be much like that but with the trigger covered, I'll post that photo also

XS big dots on, wow! what a difference to picking the sights up quickly

I have had a ton of 380 pocket guns over the years and as most of you guys know they can be very unpredictable. I still have many in the safe, keltec, kahr, Beretta pico and 2 Kimber micros back at the Kimber shop being "fixed". I picked up a Bodyguard about 6 months ago and have 500+ rounds through it with zero failures at all. So I got another, and then 2 more in FDE when Palmetto had them on sale for $239. All 4 of them function flawlessly. I have the fiber sights on one of them, a green laserguard on another and they are outstanding. The BG380 is a real winner.

Thanx Jeffhow much height do they add vs the old sights?

 

[CRJeff]

I measured about a 1/16" higher, really no difference just so visible now it's great, I chose not to go with the laser because of a possible failure and not having it. The tritium is very visible in the dark or very low light and the dot is extremely visible. very nice

I like the looks of the XS sights. I might have to consider those for mine.
