    Depends on the gun, some of the tiny 380’s don’t feed flat nose well or at all.

    More info please

      Glad to hear you really like it.
      I carried a Kahr P380 for years but never felt confident that it would perform every time, along with super long trigger, so I got rid of it. Then I switched to Glock platform (have 7 now) and have a 43 but just not really pocketable for me.
      I heard the LCP II trigger is sorta similar to glock, has that been your experience?

        Regarding some of the tiny .380's, my ex Kahr P380 did not tolerate flat nose.

          I've found great Euro .380acp, 9x17mm, ammo on 'Don't-Want-Anymore' tables at the local gun show at great prices.
          Berdan brass always. These deals never come around when you are looking for them.

          Western Europe ammunition of any kind is supposed to pass some kind of EU inspection.
          They don't have to suffer idiotic lawyer rules and they load the small pistol calibers stout.

          Remember: .380acp is the most worthless caliber we all still love to shoot. Have fun everybody.

            It’s got an internal hammer so doesn’t really fell like a striker fire gun, more like a decent single action pull but not too light.

            I’m heavily invested in Glocks also and have a 43, but sometimes it is just a little big like you said. I looked at the G42 but it is not all that much smaller then the G43. When I got my hands on the LCP II it is the perfect size for a BUG and really like the trigger, after shooting it I was sold.

            I had a PM9 for a long time, only sold it after the G43 came out. Mine functioned great and I shot it well, it was just that long reset that bothered me.

            By the way the reload bullets I use are flat point bullets, the LCP II functions great with flat point or hollow point. Haven’t found a round yet it doesn’t like.

              Anything that’s cheap..... my G42 and Colt Mustangs eat everything labeled “380.”

                Same for my LCP 2. Whatever is cheapest, most often from Wally World.
