Which compact 380 has the least recoil?

CZ 83

I would think these guys are pretty good with recoil all things considered. Full steel frame that's all CNC machined. Plus these guys are local. The manufacturing HQ is in Carrollton.

Out of the ones you mentioned the Taurus TCP. The Smith Bodyguard is terrible and the LCP isn't much better, in terms of recoil.

I have 2 LCP's his and her's, her's is accessorized with a laser. It does jump a little but both have been very reliable and due to the weight and no print they are always with us.

All the little .380s are compromise guns, no one shoots them for fun. If you find a deal on a decent one buy it. Run a few mags of whatever ammo you'll carry to make sure it feeds, then carry and hope you never need it. If you do need it you'll wish you had some thing bigger, but a LCP in your pocket is much better than a G19 in your nightstand.

Don't buy a Keltec.

Sig P230/2. Best .380 ever made. Not a pocket gun, of course, but very concealable. Accurate, recoil isn't bad, and it will always go bang.

Bersa 380 has very little recoil. Its inexpensive and reliable too except it doesn't like TulAmmo 380 (which most 380's don't).

Sig P238 is my favorite -
Also like the colt mustang but the sig has been a better gun, just no problems. Have fed it all kinds of factory and reloads and it has shot them all. GL!

I'll echo the others, Sig P238.
