I know everyone will probably disagree, but I like my S&W Sigma 380 just fine. Never has had a problam firing - 2000 rounds over 3 years. Not real accurate, but then again I don't know of a pocket gun that is. In fact, I took mine out last Friday to check its accuracy and handling as I had not shot it in awhile and was pleasantly surprised to find I was hitting 6" groups from 7 yds. Think this is bad? Consider that most gun fights occur at distances of less then 10 yds, and with a 6" group I have no problem hitting a BG. The kick is very manageable, the knockdown power of a .380, while puny compared to a .40 or .45 ACP, is infinitely better than a .32. Finally, as a selling point, a new S&W 380 will run about $240 or less.
