New carry pistol...pocket rocket

i just recalled that i have yet another 380acp pocket rocket that is a keeper. yes, i know that a bond arms derringer is a pricey, heavy, single-action, untactical, niche piece… at least i don’t have a mag disconnect to complain about.

If you can find one, the Remington RM380 with its aluminum frame is another good choice….

I should have purchased another one when I had the chance. At one point in Remington's undoing, these were selling for under $200. I paid $330 for mine when they were first released. I carried it for a couple of years before retiring it. I liked it better than the LCP and Taurus TCP.

Yeah, I bought two at $170 each when they were close outs.
Also bought some extra mags on sale from CDNN a couple years later ($10 each).
Gifted them to my son and my grandson.
I recall Remington had bought out the Rohrbaugh R9 patents and made it into a .380.
Not quite as well finished, but a heckuva lot cheaper even though it was still a nice value pistol.
