People say that when they see my little .380 LCP. Then I say let me shoot you in the leg with it. That usually changes their tune.

My grandmother had a Barrett a 25. It was perfectly safe as long as you stood in front of it.

Off to the side it was 50/50

I don't think Stacy has a purse that big lol

380's are great. I carry a little Bodyguard in my pocket all the time and you cant tell. A true conceal weapon. And yes I have a LOT of other firearms I could carry. I bought my wife a Sig P238 Red Lady for her carry as well. And if a .22 can kill or injure so will a 380.

They probably wouldn't volunteer to be shot with a slingshot either.

No doubt! Has anyone on here been actually shot with a bullet into their body? I bet it fucking hurts and would gawdamm make you think twice about continuing with what you were doing to get shot in the first place. Only Suge Night gets shot and walks away...:rolleyes

Been shot in the as bare naked. Was running from a friend with benefits bedroom. Mom and dad came home early. That shit stung.

My only advice is if its for the wife shoot it before you buy it. The Bodyguard has the most god awful trigger pull of anything I have ever shot. I wouldn't have bought it if I shot it first. And def not for my wife.

You'd be surprised what adrenaline will do. Not saying they don't know they've been shot but they don't realize how bad they've been shot, which is dangerous if they're armed too.

Unless you lights out ten ring the bastard they're still very capable.

Isn't there a story about using a .25 caliber to escape a bear attack? The couple was out for a walk and when the bear lunged forward, she pulled her .25 and promptly shot her husband in the leg.....

She got away without a scratch...........the husband.....not so much...

Fuck out running the bear. I just have to outrun your fat ass.[emoji1]

So much for living in happy ol Lake Havasu!

Man you guys got a lot to say... Do you think she should be walking around with a bazooka? It is a purse gun.. Not to take down bears..

Now about that nickel plated stainless shotgun.. Still want it. Lol. Because if you want to blow a soccer ball sized hole in someone.. Ya might as well do it with style.

.380 is just fine for a purse gun. My only worry about purse guns is the kids getting it. I had to lock mine in my glove box because my 5 year old son is into everything.

That is a legit concern.. I bought her a purse that goes with it that has a pouch on the side just for the gun. Technically you could even fire the gun straight out the side of the purse if you had too. Either way Stacy didn't like the looks of the purse so I took it back and traded it for a bunch more ammo etc..

She is looking online for other options.. I am curious how better to child proof the program. Other then of course not racking the gun and a few other steps to make it very difficult for a child to actually chamber a round.

A purse is not the best place to carry a gun. Too much shit gets piled in them to effectively retrieve the weapon. It's also not a very good place for the reasons you mentioned... the kids.

Maybe she could try a waist holster like an inside the pants kind?

Very true, same with my program. How the f am I gonna unlock the glove box and chamber a round if I need it but I have like 1 in a million chances of needing to use the gun and 100% chance my kid will find it. No question he gets his hands on it if it's not locked up.

Also, Some people don't want to carry. I am very pro gun but I wear shorts, tshirt and flip flops 90% of the time so I never carry. I like the little .380s because I can throw it in my pocket in certain situations and the rest of the time it's locked up.

Agreed. I always kept a round in the chamber until I had kids. No way my kid can chamber a round but even the thought of the gun accidentally ending up in his hands makes me sick to my stomach.

It's a tough situation. If you're going to carry for the specific reason of defense you might as well leave the weapon at home in your situation. It's more likely your vehicle being stolen than you being able to effectively utilize the gun in an emergency.

I'm being sarcastic but I think you get my point. If there's no other alternative than your current program then I'd say practice your ass off the way you currently store it.

There's a saying about kids and guns. "It's better to gun proof your kids than it is to kid proof your guns." You need to have a variation of both.

Can't fault you for being a responsible gun owning parent. It will get better as your little ones get older. I'm in your same situation.

Not that I'm a fan of guns in pockets but you could always carry with something hammerless. Like a Ruger SP101 or equivalent. Maybe something a little lighter than the Ruger?

I've got a handgun for just about any type of clothing. But you're on your own if wearing a speedo is your thing

Look at the Sig P938 also

Dave he's right about the Bodyguard the Trigger Pull SUCKS. That's why I have two of the LCP .380. One has Lazer and exstended finger grip, and the other has just the exstended finger grip. You can take Stacy shooting with one of mine to see if she likes it. And you can go shoot my Shotgun again if you remember that one i have with the Pistol Grip. I'll have to show you the New Baby I just got yesterday and it dose have a silencer on it.:rolleyes

A .380 is a 9mm Kurz or short. Plenty of stop and these are close range personal protection rounds anyway. With a short like most .380's it's 10' or under in distance anyway. I have Hydra's sitting in the clip. Its not for target practice.

The purses are designed to conceal carry guns. They have their own compartment for the gun etc..

Might be good for someone that doesn't shoot all the time, especially in a stressful situation.

There is a lot of truth to this statement. I haven't been shot.. thankfully.. but have been very near gunfire when and where it's not expected, and I've talked to more than a couple of my partners who have been shot. ALL of the small caliber victims said the same thing... It sounded like firecrackers, didn't know they were hit until the adrenaline subsided and they felt the pain or saw the blood.

If you can't stop something with a 380, you need more time at the range so you can hit the damn target! :rolleyes

I like the shotgun a lot! Been wanting a nice trap gun to shoot off the porch. Shooting clay never gets old. :thumbup:
