The P380 AWESOME pocket pistol!

IMHO These are the smallest, coolest, quality, precise, accurate & reliable lil' pocket pistols in the world!:D .... and at the close ranges they are designed for .... Deadly! Add Hornady Critical Defense ammo, ... Winner, winner, chicken dinner!" ;) I've got the black slide, tritium nite sights model along with the other PM models ... this one, because of it's small size and light weight, always goes with me when the others can't. :cool:

I bought a two-tone P380 on 8/19/2009. In the first 200rds I had (1) light strike and the slide failed to lock back (6) times. It wouldn't feed Golden Sabers at all. Sent it off to Kahr on 8/27/2009 on their dime. On 9/10/2009 I got my P380 back with a throated barrel, polished feed ramp, new slide stop, and they replaced the followers in both magazines. I put another 170rds of assorted FMJ and hollow points thru it without a glitch. It ran so smooth that I was able to sling shot the Golden Sabers effortlessly. After the DLC P380 hit the market I was looking for an excuse to get rid of it because I wanted the black slide. So when I saw a 686-4 7-shot 2.5" off went my P380. I'll replace it one day but for now I'm enjoying my PM9.

Wow, Kahr sure tuned that thing up for ya!:cool:
If you get the black P380 in the future, try the "pointy" shaped Hornady Critical Defense stuff for your carry load. The lil Kahrs eat it like candy!:D

I'll get one eventually, every arsenal needs a niche gun. The DLC P380 looks very cool especially with the Mepros. I ran some Hornady Critical Defense thru my P380 when I had it, good stuff. It was just so easy to pocket carry.

Just got one and put 200 rounds through it yesterday with zero failures. I bought it to replace my LCP and it is so much of a better shooter than the LCP. A real quaility firearm and an absolute pleasure to shoot (given that its a 10 oz. .380.

I totally understand your excitement. I feel the same way
about my P380. For it's size, it's the real deal. I carry
mine, when my P40 Covert, and now my PM9, stay home
for one reason or another. It's a great option to have !

heard that kahr is now throating their P380 better to accept all ammo types. Mine would not touch golden sabres due to slide lock issues but one trip back and it was solved and it has been flawless for over 1000 rounds. Nice gun, realy a shooter to. Haven't shotmine in months as no ammo aorund my area and when it is, it cost an arm and a leg.:yo:
