I'm seriously considering the new Smith & Wesson Bodyguard pistol for the times I need easy/deep conceal and carry. I currently have the little Beretta .32 but it's a lot heavier than it looks and obviously lacks some power. I was all set to buy a Ruger LCP but heard this new Smith & Wesson is coming out this month/May (you can check it out on the S&W website).
It looks like a lot more substantial gun than the LCP although it's a wee-bit heavier (unbelievably it's thinner, however). I'm sure it will probably cost a lot more money (some are saying $500-$550) but you need to add the price of laser grips to the LCP to compare apples to apples, since the S&W has it standard (with a much superior integrated solution I might add). So that will bring the prices better in-line but the S&W will undoubtedly still be a little more.
So what do you guys think? It looks like an ugly gun but I sort of like it in that bulldog sort of way. The LCP looks like more of a toy. I'm sure they all have pluses and minuses. Yes, I know these are mouseguns and I know .380 ammo is in short supply but that isn't the subject of this discussion. Anyone else waiting for this new gun or are you looking at other tiny .380s? :gun05:
