I voted no.
After a quick trip back to Ruger I think the gun is reliable now. They polished and throated the barrel extensively. If I shoot it carefully it has no problems. But, if I shoot it rapidly it will still stumble. Failing to eject, causing a jam that requires the magazine to be removed to clear it. Please note that I believe the jam is no longer caused by the gun, but by the way it fits (or doesn’t) my hands. So, for me it is not a good choice for a self defense gun. YMMV
I still have about 900 rounds of 380 left. So for now I think I will keep it as a range toy. It is a cute little bug.
