About the Gun

The original Bodyguard 380 has been reworked as the M&P Bodyguard to give it a sleeker profile designed to make it easier to holster and draw. The integrated laser is now a variant option. Features include the M&P scalloped slide serrations, stainless steel slide and barrel, external takedown lever and slide stop and stainless steel drift adjustable sights.

About the Cartridge

Designed by John Browning and introduced by Fabrique Nationale of Belgium, this cartridge has achieved world-wide acceptance and has even been adopted as the standard pistol cartridge by several governments. One reason for the round's success is that it is the largest practical cartridge that can be easily adapted to small automatic pocket pistols. Ballistics fall far short of even the 9mm Luger, but still prove adequate for most self-defense situations. The round has established quite a niche position in this role, often being chosen over more traditional small calibers such as the .25 and .32 Autos.
