Analysis

This .380 Auto pistol offers a solid option for concealed carry and personal defense. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at typical self-defense ranges of 7 to 15 yards. The ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip for most hand sizes, aiding in control during rapid fire. Reliability is a strong point, with the firearm cycling smoothly through various ammunition types during testing. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, as disassembly requires careful attention to detail, which may frustrate less experienced users. Availability of replacement parts is another concern, potentially leading to delays in repairs. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5.5 pounds in single action, providing a predictable break. Felt recoil is moderate for the caliber, manageable for most shooters, though those sensitive to kick might find follow-up shots challenging without practice. Overall, it’s a practical choice with some limitations.
