What Pistol do you carry daily?
#841
I've fallen in love with my Bersa 380. matched with the IWB hybrid Old Faithful holster. I can carry wearing a slim fit polo and it barely prints. As for the Bersa... It's just as they say. It's not a cheap pistol it's an inexpensive one. 1000 rounds through it so far and not one FTF, jam or double feed.

For several reasons detailed in most reviews I think the S&W Bodyguard .380 is better than the LCP. Notably the sights and the extra finger grip on the magazine, plus the slide locks back when empty. Thats my summer carry in a Remora holster, and winter time is a CZ-75B full frame 9mm in an Uncle Mike's.

the problem I had with the bodyguard was the safety was hit or miss for me. So small I couldn't be sure that, if I was under stress, I could move it. I ended up with a P238 and Im trying to learn to carry it. Otherwise its still a seecamp .32 on me

I leave it off when I carry with this gun.... The trigger pull is so long (true DAO double strike etc) that you don't need the safety at all even if you thought about it.

It is absolutely day and night difference between the two. Lower recoil, smoother trigger (~7 pounds, crisp), great sights that don't need rear illumination, and night sights.

Sig SP2022 but I think I am going to go with a smaller framed pistol. The 2022 is pretty much at the extreme for my build (5'10" and 180lb) to carry comfortably. I hate to change because I can drive nails with it and rounds on target is the most important factor in choosing a weapon.

I think the Bodyguard looks nicer, kinda like a mini 1911.
The LCP will cut into your trigger finger after 50 or so rounds, at least thats what happens to my father.
THe Bodyguard is easier to aim and relatively accurate up to 10 yards. THe LCP is not as accurate.
I like the laser pressure switch better on the LCP than the Bodyguard. You cant help but activate it on the LCP but under a life or death situation, the Bodyguard switch may not activate as easy.
I didnt like the long trigger pull on either. I have however got used to it and appreciate why its double action only.
The LCP is more expensive and selling faster from what I understand. I hear the Bodyguard had some issues early on.
