Guess I need to share a pic of my latest recently acquired .380... Enjoy shooting it so much I ordered .380 dies and bullets today too... so... another new phase.
It's an 8+1 85 FS Beretta Cheetah. Fits my hand very nicely and it's so Italio purdy my soul allows for the premium $ spent.

 
One of my dream guns, on the long-term wish list. In my opinion, the nickel Cheetah with wood grips could start and end a thread about .380s.
 
My current and only .380 ACP. Sig P250 SC

Ah, Taurus' "pale and leprous" color scheme. :D (Sorry. Pale white plastic just doesn't do it for me, on a handgun. Now, their bumblebee yellow and black gun, that I might get.)
 
djon... It reminds me of a shark!... Glad to hear it's shooting well.
6mm... Nice bulls-eyes!
lee... Makarovs are nice... I kinda miss the one I had once...
 
Wow, a .380 Sphinx... Now that there is a rarely seen bird... They're all very nice and tending towards the exotic. This thread is broadening my appreciation for the slightly mysterious .380 genre. Thanks for sharing.
 
I carry a well worn 5-year-old LCP and boy does it look clunky next to some of these pretty things.

Though to its credit I can carry it literally anytime.
 
Some beauties here. I am a sucker for the lines of Berettas, and that P232 has a different look that is very nice, too.

My only .380 is a Sig P238, the version with rosewood grips and black frame and slide. Very nice looking pistol in a simple understated way, but the only pictures I have are the mug shots that I keep on file as inventory records. My wife carries it regularly, and I have to say it is the nicest shooting of any of the little pocket .380s I have encountered.
 
I have had a few different 380's over the years and have narrowed the collection down to a Colt Mustang Plus II, Colt Pony, Beretta 84 (X2 Him & Her), Cobray M12 380, Ruger LCP W/lazer for her. I will have to get a family pic together.
 
My Bersa Thunder 380 and Taurus 738 TCP have both been reliable pistols and see quite a bit concealed carry time too.

Here are mine. Love the 84F it has become part of my EDC rotation. The Pico I pocket carry most days. I removed one of the hammer springs and it's a nice little gun for what it is (a pocket gun). I looking real hard at a Bersa thunder as my next .380

Mine aren't fancy. Beretta 84, Russian Makarov, Colt Government Model, Kel-Tec P3AT. All of them work well. I got the Berretta used for $240 or so. I got the Mak brand-new in 1990 or so for $149. I got the Colt used last year for around $450. The Kel-Tec was around $225 new. The Mak is the most accurate.
