My 2 cents.. love the lcp for pocket carry when u cant get away with a real gun or need a backup, but at 9 oz it does kick. If u need that size without the recoil, kel still makes their .32... if your going to get something Bersa/ppk size, get another9...

I've owned both of the Ruger LCP's, and even though light, the LCP-II with the locked breech an single action hammer fired operation kicks a lot less compaired to her twin. I still have the LCP-II an use her as my BUG to anything else I carry, and as a primary when you can't carry a gun.

Went to Academy last week to handle some. The Bodyguard felt way too small. the shield felt similar in size and feel as my ruger SR22. Just need to find a place to rent some.

Browning mini 1911. Holds great and recoil is not much! Pistol is 75% the size of a full size. Has some polymer but weight is fine!

The little .380 can really pack a large recoil punch. the Bersa Thunder and all steel and in my opinion a little easier to shoot that the polymer .380s on the market. i like my glock 42. a little bigger and a little more grip to hold onto that some of the smaller .380 like the ruger.

My gal pal has a Sig P238. I really like it a lot! I can group as well with it as my G19. Only drawback is the cost of the .380 ammo! As stated above, light recoil and easy to pull slide. Hell, I still may talk myself into getting my own!

Best of luck in your decision!

(I'm also drawn to the Kimber Micro 380...….decisions, decisions.....)


Well, I effectively ended my search for a small 380 by buying a SIG P365 9mm....:doh:

Oh well, I tried.
