Put 200 rounds through it at my local range without a single malfunction. Accuracy was decent at 7 yards for a subcompact. My only nitpick is the trigger – it’s heavier than I expected, which took some getting used to during rapid fire drills. Still, it’s become my regular carry piece around Tampa.

Carried this for a month around St. Pete and it concealed perfectly under a t-shirt. The bi-tone finish looks sharp and shows less wear than I anticipated. My minor complaint is about ammunition – it occasionally fails to lock back on empty with certain budget .380 brands. Still functions flawlessly with defensive rounds though.

Took it straight from the box to the range and ran multiple magazines of various .380 loads. Not a single failure across all 500 rounds. The subcompact size made rapid target transitions smooth during my training session. Recoil spring felt just right – not too stiff for easy racking but solid enough to handle +P.

I carried this all summer in Orlando and barely noticed it. The .380 Auto caliber was plenty for my needs, and the bi-tone finish held up well despite the humidity. Disassembly for cleaning was straightforward after my first range trip. It fit perfectly in my pocket holster without printing.

The slim profile made this incredibly comfortable for concealed carry. I ran three different brands of .380 ammunition through it last weekend and had zero feeding issues. Recoil was manageable even with +P loads. Sights were easy to pick up quickly during timed drills.
