Analysis

This compact .380 Auto pistol offers a solid option for concealed carry with several notable attributes. Its accuracy is commendable for a firearm of this size, delivering consistent performance at close to moderate ranges. The ergonomics are well-suited for smaller hands, with a grip that facilitates a secure hold despite the diminutive frame. Reliability is generally dependable under standard conditions, provided regular maintenance is performed. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome due to the design of certain components, requiring patience and familiarity. Availability of replacement parts may pose a challenge, as they are not as widely stocked as those for more common models. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds, which aids in precision shooting. Felt recoil is moderate for the caliber, manageable for most users, though those sensitive to kick might find it slightly sharp during extended sessions.
