I owned 2 of the original BG-380s when they came out many years back and hated them. What came close to being a decent little DAO gun was a train wreck of snapped firing pins and cheap laser that was useless. Even to this day new shooters come into our shop looking for them and I have to bite my lip. This week we received two of these newly redesigned BG 2.0 guns that customers have been asking about.
DAMN, I am somewhat skeptical but impressed. I feel a tiny click in the pretravel of the trigger safety but over all feel is pretty awesome. It comes with orange front tritium sights and the mags hold 10+1 and 12+1. It fits in my pocket with a sticky sleeve very nicely this could be a Glock 42 replacement for some. I took it down and looks like a Glock style DA action where the trigger press completes the cocking of the striker with a rearward motion then eventually reaches the sear separation. I could be wrong but that would be super smart design. I think the safety aspects of a Glock DA are lost on most people.
This particular gun doesn't have a thumb safety or grip safety and that's a cause for celebration to me. I give lessons 7 days a week and have countless stories about the theories behind grip and thumb safeties compared to reality. I think the brilliance of the Glock double action is lost on most people.
This is the same price as a Ruger LCP or max and far better gun. One customer bought and tried, claims best shooting 380 ever, I look forward to getting one in the rental pool to try. I'm not an early adopter due to bad experiences but this complete redesign of the bodyguard with 10+1 & 12+1 mags could be a winner. Video is less than 1m long.
