I have heard on the INGO that .22 is the preferred round to shoot polar bears and grizzlies.I heard on INGO a 22 to the ear canal works just as good.

I worked a case where a guy killed himself with 22 with bird shot, to the temple. The bone is pretty thin there. The x-ray was quite impressive...There have been cases of people being killed by a BB gun. I think a .22 short may have just been flexing.
The only 380acp that got me excited was the Browning 1911 380acp I just bought for $238I think .380s will start seeing a decline in use. 9mms are getting smaller, softer shooting, without sacrificing the advantages of 9mm. The .380s on the market just don't really provide as much benefit in the caliber tradeoff, especially given that subcompact 9mms are now close to the size of non-micro .380s.
The most recent .380 that got me excited was the Beretta 80X Cheetah, but even that's close to the size and weight of some 9mms, so I probably wouldn't carry it.
You better get your ears checked.I have heard on the INGO that .22 is the preferred round to shoot polar bears and grizzlies.
Yes I think it was in the same post that detailed the demise of the lifetime carry option.I have heard on the INGO that .22 is the preferred round to shoot polar bears and grizzlies.
I used to carry a fistfull of quarters in a sock.People have been killed with fists. No need for a gun.
Would you trust your life or that of your loved one to a .380?
According to FBI stats, hands, fists, and feet are pretty deadly. But again, placement counts!People have been killed with fists. No need for a gun.
I'm in the same boat. I prefer my Shield+, but when I can't, I'm keeping the S&W Bodyguard on watch. I checked S&W for recalls on it... what did I miss?Once all the kinks and future recalls are out of the way on the new S&W Bodyguard 2.0 - I may invest in that.
12+ .380ACP sure beats 5 .38 Special wadcutters - in a lighter and more easily concealable platform, too.
I have no issues with a modern .380 stoked with modern ammo being a personal defensive firearm.
I also love my Shield +. It's my my main carry pistol - even though I have larger ones. But the Bodyguard 2.0 will easily fit into my pants pockets, the Shield+ won't.I'm in the same boat.

Shield+ is mine too. I know I want a full-size M&P, but I'm trying to talk myself out of the new ported PC one. All I hear anyone say about that is, "What if you have to shoot close and the port gas blasts you in the face?" It's more of a want than a need, but the Bodyguard is really tempting because there are deep conceal times I want. I'm guessing, as is traditional S&W, they'll have a PC one come out to get the previous buyers to buy new again. Maybe then the kinks will have surfaced.I also love my Shield +.

And there's no recall yet... But I'm a cynic and am almost never a beta-tester of brand new things (especially cars and firearms). It absolutely won't surprise me in the least if there's a recall down the road in a few months.
Recalls on brand new firearms happen so often it's kind of scary.
