What's your favorite 380?

Factory fmj load, don’t remember the brand, just left me with a bad impression about the round.

Remember what distances were you shooting?

I just got the LCP max a few weeks ago. It's my favorite (and only) .380 for concealed carry. I never owned the original LCP, but I've shot them before and thought the trigger was 💩and the grip was too small / slippery. LCP max has a better trigger, slightly wider grip, and much better grip texture. Overall I shoot it much better. The rattling slide is annoying though... I guess just keep it loaded.

Walther PPK is more fun at the range.

LCP Max….is the trigger pain free? At least as compared to the finger pain my old LCP delivers?

I noticed a little bit of a pinch a couple times, but it hasn't been an issue for me. I also don't shoot hundreds of rounds at a time with this one, maybe if I did I would have a different opinion.
 
I decided the 380 round was a bit too stout for my delicate and waif like self, so I got myself a Beretta Tomcat in 32acp instead....

I do love a Beretta pocket pistol with a tilt barrel. I need to get another 22lr and 25 and have the set.

Got this for my wife. She didn't like it. Kept it because I paid too much for it. It's actually all stainless, including the frame, on the other side is a big 'HD" on the slide. Yes, a little heavy for its size, but such a sweet shooter with that 1911 style trigger (wish. this one was a lighter pull). So small you hardly know it's there in an IWB.

When my ruger lcp in 380 would bounce bullets back at me when I shot it (target on a plywood board) I sold it and anything in 380…

My son bought the Ruger and we were at DCWC shooting in two adjacent lanes. He was at 7 yards sighting it in and I felt something hit me in the arm. A ricochet off a 1x2 that didn't even bruise me. He then bought a .45 XDS.
 
The worst part of this is that it's a gateway drug. I've always been able to resist a Vz61 because 32 is expensive, you don't have anything else that shoots it.

Found myself browsing gunbroker, just to look.

While it may be heavy, I bet she shoot really nice because of that stainless steel frame.
