Analysis

This compact .380 Auto pistol offers a solid option for concealed carry with its lightweight design and ergonomic grip, fitting comfortably in most hands for extended use. Its accuracy proves reliable at close to mid-range distances, making it suitable for self-defense scenarios. The double-action-only trigger pull, while consistent at around 10 pounds, may feel heavy for some users, potentially affecting precision during rapid fire. Felt recoil is moderate for the caliber, manageable for most shooters with proper grip, though smaller-framed individuals might find it somewhat sharp. Reliability is a key asset, with consistent performance across various ammunition types during testing. However, maintenance can be cumbersome due to a less intuitive disassembly process, and sourcing replacement parts may pose challenges due to limited availability. Overall, it serves as a practical choice for everyday carry, provided users account for its specific handling characteristics.
