I'd hate to be the guy on the receiving end of any of those groups.

 

What do you do, sleep with them? Great shooting!

 

Picked up the pistol on Tuesday, made it to the range today. Put 100 rounds of FMJ through it; mixture of WWB, Fiocchi and Magtech. It functioned flawlessly. Rate of fire was one round per second. Accuracy is very good. Recoil was light but noticeably more than my G42 and P365 .380, probably due to the lighter weight of the BG 2.0. IMO, the sights are not as good as those on the Glock or Sig. Trigger pull is crisp but heavier than the other pistols. Positive over the G42 is capacity. Positive over the Sig is weight.

All in all, a good day at the range. Although IMO the BG 2.0 is no better or worse than the Glock or Sig, it is indeed a great little pistol. View attachment 1314983 View attachment 1314984 View attachment 1314985

Very nice. Good shooting for such pistols. I have a Bodyguard 2.0 as well and carry it often. It’s smaller than both the 365 and 42. It’s a trade off as the other two are slightly easier to shoot well.

Y’all gotta stop or I’m gonna have to buy one. 😡

Thanks for making that post.

I really love my Glock 42, and I have a +2 Taran Tactical mag extension on mine - so, it has more capacity.

So, I keep asking myself if this Bodyguard 2.0 is worth it. I can't get it now - but maybe in the future.

I had a feeling the recoil would have to be more on the Bodyguard 2.0 compared to the Glock. I am surprised to hear that the trigger is heavier than the G42 trigger, though... Everyone keeps talking about the sub 4lb trigger on the youtube channels.

It’s worth having a true pocket .380 if one doesn’t have one. The Bodyguard is basically the size of the LCP, slightly fatter. G42 is more shooteable yet larger. Primary trade off. Same capacity which for me is a disappointment. I still want a 42 one day tho

 

I want to grab one to see if it will replace my Max. The $350 online vendors are out of stock. Booooooooooooooo!!!

 

Nice shooting

 

Nice report. Your sniper 380acp skills rating = legendary .

 

I would like to see some 25 yard targets.

 

My original Bodyguard performs reasonably out to 25y.

Including keeping up with a P365 and a 4" Shield .45 with a red dot.

So, if the tiny 1.0, hammer-fired version can keep up at 25 yards, I presume the larger, striker-fired model should do just fine.

 

Very nice groups! I miss my 42.
That Bodyguard is also a great tool

 

I'm sure its a fine little gun, but Ill stick with my 9's and my 42 for deep carry.

I have XXL hands so I wouldn'l feel comfortable with such a short barrel.

 

What happened with the two nines at 10 yards? Did you call them at the time? Did your body feel different in posture or your breathing?

 

Thanks for the post, mist. I, too, would be comparing the BG2 to the Glock 42 and Sig P365-380. I thought that the weight of the BG2 could make it more difficult to shoot than both of the other two, but thought that, maybe, the ergonomics could get it close enough. Your post is encouraging. I probably will buy the first one I get my hands on, then compare all 3 using a timer and shooting a plate rack. Good shooting, by the way!

 

I’ve got my BG in my pocket as we speak with a Desantis pocket holster. Only gun I have easier to carry is a Keltec p32. In the summer there’s a reason I carry it. The step up in size including subcompacts such as 365s or Shields and even snubbies is much harder to conceal in all summer clothes, such as the shorts I’m wearing with smallish pockets.

 

They're .380s, NOT a defensive caliber. Get a 9mm in the same size package , with 9mm +P+ ammo, and STACK THE DECK IN YOUR FAVOR! Hammer
