Sorry sheep; I came over reading not like I meant to sound. Limits of text.

Nice. Kick ass MM. Still love my P3AT .380 with the crimson trace on it though.

Thanks, but .380 is just a little too light in the biscuits for my taste. My auto pistols are .40 S&W and 9mm... With LEO ammo (Winchester Ranger). I live and work in a lot of hot and humid places (like you would expect a monkey to do) and IWB can be rather uncomfortable even with a horse CBST. The Bodyguard gives me a pocket option that an auto can't... Sure, you can put your Kel-Tec in your pocket, but you can't reliably fire from it... A pocket draw is a tricky critter at best, and it can be reassuring if you don't have to clear your trousers to get a shot off...

I'm a bit off the reservation on ammo, I'm using Double Tap's 125gr hollow point +P ammo. they claim it's made for short barrel revolvers and that they can squeeze max velocity out of the short pipe. My chronometer will tell tale...

MM, the .380 is great - prints like a wallet. The modified Uncle Mike's pocket holster holds it perfectly in the pocket. Seven shots of Speer golddots will bring down a rhino. When the weather is cool enough, I load up my Sig 229 .40, but I love this little P3AT.

You still have to clear the beast to get a shot off... The wheelie is not so encumbered...

It's a matter of taste and YMMV...
