A lot of people won't think it thru that far, but that's exactly what we did for my dad when he started having trouble with the recoil with his LC9 shooting 147gr. I got him a couple boxes of the Hornady 100gr Critical Defense, problem solved.I don't get the doublestack .380 thing, I mean, I get lower recoil, but if that's the desire there are 9mm loads out there that shoot a 100gr projectile and have the same recoil as .380.

A locked breech .380 that weighs just under 20oz unloaded. I'll bet the recoil on that thing feels almost like a .22. If they come out with a no-safety model, I'll buy it.
Wait, what? This isn't a blowback with a fixed barrel? That... this changes things.A locked breech .380 that weighs just under 20oz unloaded. I'll bet the recoil on that thing feels almost like a .22. If they come out with a no-safety model, I'll buy it.
Much shorter grip height and doesn't have that upside-down grip safety. I honestly don't understand why they did the grip safety like that.Capacity notwithstanding, I don’t see anything that would make this preferable to the EZ.

If they made a Shield Plus in .380, that would get my money.I wonder if S&W is gonna roll out with a Equalizer in 380 ACP ?

Now if only Ruger would stop being so mean to me they could make a .32 version and I'd be a happy boy this Christmas.
I must agree. If I'm wanting a .380, it's gonna be an original LCP or smaller- not something that could pass as a small belt gun.Ruger only seems interested in grabbing market share, so I've all but given up on them ever making anything in .32 for an autoloading pistol.

Call me crazy but I prefer a double action, hammer fired pistol, or better yet, a DA/SA hammer fired pistol over striker fired configuration for a concealed carry.

I saw that, it's the best Black Friday deal for a gun I've seen in a long timeOld thread…. But … 13 months after posting this I ordered a Ruger Security 380acp , KYGUNCO Black Friday deal $224 shipped… couldn’t pass it up .. It has been on my short list since its release..
You do realize these are the same thing?...I prefer a double action, hammer fired pistol, or better yet, a DA/SA hammer fired pistol...
Unless it is a DAO. I agree with the above statement yet to younger shooters that have mainly striker fired experience I also catch myself clarifying when 50 years ago there was no need.You do realize these are the same thing?
DA is the same thing as DA/SA.
The only difference is what the terms refer to - "DA" describes the trigger mechanism, and "DA/SA" describes mode of operation.
