Who Carries a .380 regularly?

[sportsballfan]

Lcp max currently with Underwood extreme defenders.

Second mag in left pocket with Neomag 2.0 brand magnetic magazine holster with deep pocket clip.

Works well for me and I train with pocket reloading regularly.

Dros'd a Bodyguard 2.0, yesterday. Felt great in my hands.

Who carries a .380 these days on a regular basis? If so, what gun are you using, and what ammo?

I just put money down on the comp'd Bodyguard 2.0, so I'm looking for good ammo suggestions.

I carry a Ruger LCP Max or a 1.0 M&P Bodyguard 380 at times. My carry ammo is the Precision One 90gr JHP or the Federal Hydra-Shok Deep.

Last stage of our Qual course is 2 rounds, 15 yards, 3 seconds. That last stage negates some less skilled shooters from carrying micro compacts with miniscule sights like the gen1 Ruger LCP.

I'd love to carry my P238 but my IA (CC County) won't allow single action guns.

Anyone have a Bersa?

Yes. Bersa 380 Thunder. Don't listen to the price tag. Rock solid straight shooter. A little snappy in some hands.

If you haven't seen it before, Lucky Gunner did a huge comparison of calibers and ammo brands.

Carried my Walther PPK/S, both on, and off duty, for 28 years. Still carry to this day, on the occasions Im shooting it at the range.

Beretta 80x.
Flat nose FMJ. no point in spending money on expensive JHP's. None of them reliably expand out of micro/compact barrels.

I want to get the Bodyguard comp 2.0 for a boot gun, but my IA has chosen to have us do the hardest CCW qual in the entire state, so im kinda on the fence about it.
I need to get my hands on 1 and shoot it for awhile before I make a definite decision.
Would be cool for Nevada where you pass with any 1 gun you want, and carry whatever you want.

What is the qual?

 

[cali_jazz]

Adding the BG2.0 Comp to my CCW as renewal is coming up and it's summertime. I have a couple of different self-defense rounds, Hornady Critical Defense being one of them.

What is the qual?

The Alameda Police Department utilizes the live-fire shooting qualification course established by the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office.
-2-Yard Line: 10 rounds total (5 shots drawn from holster in 10 seconds, 5 shots from low ready in 10 seconds)
-5-Yard Line: 10 rounds total (5 shots drawn from holster in 12 seconds, 5 shots from low ready in 10 seconds)
-7-Yard Line: 10 rounds total (5 shots drawn from holster in 15 seconds, 5 shots from low ready in 12 seconds)
-15-Yard Line: 10 rounds total (5 shots drawn from holster in 20 seconds, 5 shots from low ready in 15 seconds)
-25-Yard Line: 10 rounds total (5 shots drawn from holster in 30 seconds, 5 shots from low ready in 15 seconds)

 

[Title1guy]

Picking up and intend to qualify soon with a BG 2.0 Carry Comp. Past was an LCP Max (sold) and a Sig P238. IMHO, .380s and a P32 are perfect for summer EDCing. YMMV.

Those are beautiful guns! Wish we could get those on roster.
