Hello all, my first post. I just picked up a new P380 to replace my LCP. Took it out to the range twice last week and have about 200 rounds through it now. I have had very few issues, all where failure to feed with the 7 round mag. I am quite impressed with this gun, it is much more pleasant to shoot than the LCP.
Here is a picture I took of my first target. They were all shot from about 15 feet. The gun is certainly capable of doing better, but not terrible for the first time shooting it. My second range trip had slightly better groupings.

All in all for a close encounter pistol and your first outing those groups aren't half bad and will certainly get the job done. I have one and really like it...in fact I'm carrying it on me today...almost forget its there. These are nice little pieces.
Looks pertty good to me. I found mine settled in some and got more accurate as round count went up also, although it could be me.
I only have 6 rounders, but I have seen on here where others have had issues with the 7 round mags too. You might want to poke around and see what you can find on them.

I have not done any real testing with it, but it seems like if I put more pressure/torque on mag extension part I was more likely to get a FTF. Not sure if that was just a coincidence or something more.
I don't plan to use the 7 round mag for anything other than target shooting so I'm not too concerned about it. I am planning on picking up a second 6 round mag in the future to use as a spare carry mag.

That's two today that have 7 round mags. Is this the new thing?
