Love my P365-380. It’s definitely what I carry when I have to deep conceal (professional environments) and I love how easy it is for follow up shots. I have the CZ P10C and the P365XL that I’ll use in winter months or where I’m not as worried about printing. Great video!
Thank you. I purchased my 1st firearm which is a P365 380 recommended by my instructor...I appreciate this comparisony dad kinda suggested I made the wrong purchase yet he offered no real guidance any way I'm good
I was in the market for a p365 in 9mm, having tried it when my wife was getting her pistol certification, but my LGS had one in 380 at a great price and i had bunch of ammo for it anyway since I also own a Beretta 85bb. My wife has arthritis and has no problem racking the 365s slide. Its now my conceal carry.
Sig missed out with this one because the p365 9mm owners cannot buy a 380 slide and guide rod to interchange with their nines. Slight size differences in the slides.
10/10 for the clap. Great review by the way, and I bought the 365 9mm about a year ago from me posting this comment and I love it. definitely thinking about buying the .380 as well kinda like a jack and Jill for the collection. thank you !!!
And letting you know, this vid has convinced me to go 9mm for this model. Perfect explanation of features of both models. Great information and worth my 10 mins. Thank you.
I've seen so many men impressed with the P365 .380. I'm talking guys that would probably pocket-carry and S&W 500 if Uncle Mike made a pocket holster for it. What impressed them was the fact that it was instantly right back on target after each round fired, due to the low recoil. I currently own three versions of the P365 and I was hoping that the .380 would work for my wife. While she could manage the slide, she had to work at it. It's noticeable lighter for me than the 9mm version, but still a little too much for her.
@@antoniotula262 Thanks. I actually own several and they're a blast to shoot. I like them, but she's never been a fan of revolver triggers. She's dead-on accurate with her or my semi-autos, she just has trouble with some slides.
I rented one in Pittsburgh last month and really liked it. I found it pretty easy to shoot accurately with it, in no small part because the recoil was so manageable. This would make a nice EDC for a woman.
what I have learned throughout the years is that guns and calibers are just like your daily clothes of choice for the event of the day! going to the beach? flip flops and shorts, going skiing? winter clothes and ski equipment. what I mean is 9mm in the summertime when people are wearing light clothes like t-shirts, a 9mm round will have a higher probability of a pass-through, so my choice would be a 380 pistol for summertime use. Now in the winter months when people are wearing heavy clothing, Now is where a 9mm or better comes into play. so people around the world just need to figure out what type of barriers they will be facing more than anything else, that should be their deciding factor of weapon and caliber choice. unless they have some form of disability or strength issues.
The clap is enthusiastic determined and excited! I actually traded from my 380 Glock to p365. Easy carry and I like the features! By the way been drinking this coffee and love it , it stands by itself flavor it’s as almost believe that other coffees water theirs down and use a lot of fillers. Any way thanks for this info
I have both guns and they are great the 9 mm I have is the x macro and there is a good physical size difference and I modified the macro with the XS tridium night sights and the trigger and spring kit they shoot identical one being carry and one range gun
P365 is the absolute perfect platform for 380. The Sig P238 is also fantastic as well for 380. If you want to optimally shoot 9mm in a smaller sized pistol, the p320 XCompact is the way to go. Don’t listen to anybody else, just listen to me, I know best…haha!!!
I have all cals, and I love .380 and Im 210lb man. I just picked up my first Sig today 365-380 and i cant wait to shoot it. Now that ammo is back on the dang shelf. I need a few bricks to stick back in case that happens again, but yeah, 380 and 45 are my two favorites to shoot. But 380 is my favorite to carry. Theres nothing unmanly about it. Its still a 9mm just think of it as reduced recoil 9…
380 seems to be the sweet spot for the P365. I avoided ths gun because I do not like small snappy firearms. I considered purchasing a standard p365, adding a comp, and the Icarus frame; but that adds up quickly. Especially, since I can get what I want in a 365-380. No shame in John Wick’s game.
Yesterday I shot my 380 conversion and the 9mm X macro comp (same ammo) . I gotta be honest. The X macro comp in 9mm was such a softer shooter that the difference in recoil is negligible so why not shoot the cheaper more powerful 9mm ? I don't agree that the 380 shoots like a 22.
Not sure, my G42 sure is accurate and very manageable in recoil. ( My wife) likes it much better than the LCP’s, S&W’s and Kel -Tec’s. 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ I may give the Sig a try if I decide to get another .380
I'd be curious how the 9mm loaded with Hornady Critical Defense Lite (100 gr) feels compared to the 380 loaded with a 90 gr defensive round. That might make a better option if you don't want to add a new caliber.
@@TiberiousGibMy gunsmith sold me a used DPM recoil guide/spring for the 365 9mm. I didn't think it would make such a big difference in felt recoil, but it really transformed the pistol. I also bought 4 more mags from him ( used) and now I am burning through my 9mm. stash! Faster and smaller groups make it well worth the price ( the DPM guides are usually well over $100)
I wish SIg would sell the 380 slide complete so that anyone could swap it on and off their 9mm P365. If it were priced right I'd buy one just for the fun of it.
Have been looking for a gun for my wife. We went and shot the g42 and EZ shield in .380. She loved the shield, but they did not have the p365-380. I would love to see a direct comparison of the two! Nice video!
@@TiberiousGib its actually big enough to fit the bore? I thought they were tiny tiny but then again they are .380 and that's just about literally what a 9mm is are they just shorter or something?
@@niswii 380 and 9mm use the same diameter bullet: .355”. The 380 case is shorter and has a smaller case head. If you load a 380 in a 9mm, the extractor might hold the case against the breech face so that the firing pin will set it off., but it probably won’t cycle the gun.
How easy is it to swap out the 380 to the nine? Do they sell the whole slide with the barrel and spring and is that all it would take? Forgive me if my question sounds naïve, but I am still a newbie.
What does recoil-sensitive mean? sensitive to 9mm recoil? to .357 in a snub nose? .50 cal? When they make a small 9 that has .380 recoil, it will be the best selling gun of all time. Carry what you like and can shoot well.
I am a novice shooter who is in the market for a CCW. Which of these would be the better option? Is there a significant difference in ease of racking the slide?
I would go less recoil with the .380 version. Novice shooter to me means that you don't go to the range much, so the higher ammo costs for .380 wont be that big of a deal
Bersas are great. I have a 380 cc that has been flawless, but the recoil impulse feels sharper than my 9mm p365 and it weighs almost the same while carrying two less of a smaller round. My Bersa is mechanically more accurate than my p365, and has a better trigger than the p365. It just has no sights and 380 is too expensive to practice with compared to 9mm.
I have the regular Bersa Thunder. I bought it way before I bought the Sig p365. There's a big difference in weight and size, and I bet the weight difference would be even greater with the 15 round capacity. The Bersa is also longer than the P365 and much harder to pocket carry, which is my preferred method. I have the P365 in 360 which is even lighter than the 9mm version. So for me, it was a no brainer. The blow back design of the Bersa makes the recoil more apparent than the P365. That's probably why there are very few if any blowbacks in 9mm. The lower recoil makes it easier to do double taps.
I’m wanting a P365 but want something that is very light weight. I normally carry a full size Glock, so this will only be a pocket pistol for places where I normally could not carry. The 9mm P365 seems a little heavy to carry in a pocket. Is the 380 version a little bit lighter? I want the 380 because I already have a 380 and hoping it will be lighter weight for pocket carry.
hey was hoping if you can let me know if the model chambered in .380 function properly when firing, i have one and the gun store around the corner told me the mags weren’t compatible that the 9mm model was in fact bigger.
@@TiberiousGib most definitely for range use only but thanks for getting back to me it’s really appreciated got the sig P365-.380 as my first handgun for the reduced recoil for fast follow-up shots.
WOAH WOAH WOAH.. Can anyone else confirm that new (2023) P365-380's are shipping with the flat-face trigger (instead of the curved one)?? All the stock photos I see online (including Sig Sauer's) show it with the curved one.. If that's the case, then I just got the wrong firearm; I got the p365X because I prefer the flat trigger over the curved one and I'm not comfortable with the idea of a trigger swap/upgrade for my edc (even if it's done by a certified professional).
@@TiberiousGib, oh ok. Thanks for the response/info.. Yeah, I got the P365X and I plan on just gettin the 380 conversion kit. Problem is, the conversion kit is almost as expensive as gettin the whole firearm, but as stated, that curved trigger is a disqualifier for me.
Thank you for making this! Question, does a holster for the 9mm work for the .380 and vice versa? Ive been told by we the people holsters that the 9mm holster will work for the .380 however i am skeptical. any answers would be greatly appreciated!
I own the 380 & 365XL. It depends on the holster. The 9mm will not fit in a 380 holster IF it is actually molded for the 380 (2mm height difference). 380's will fit in 9mm holsters but fit can vary. Sig sells their 9mm holster for the 380 and says it fits with no issue (I emailed asking them about it). I have a T1-M for the 9mm and the 380 has a bit of shift due to the slide height difference. It is still very secure.
I love my P365-380. The only downside is the price of .380 ammo which obviously isn't the gun's fault. Now if they make a P365-380 XL then I'll be in heaven.
Hey Tiberius, does someone make those plug in the mags that can be installed on a 9mm version? Also can you use the 380 slide and drop in a 9mm barrel and 9mm spring assembly? Thanks
4:12 " The barrel is bigger because it shots a bigger round" WRONG its the same caliber. I cant understand how somone couldnt recognize this even so he handle both guns and both rounds. The 9mm it thicker because it has much more pressure. The slides are alos not the same. The 9mm slide has more mass.
Making that comment make you feel good? I can feel your insecurity. When I said bigger barrel I didn’t mean the caliber, I meant the mass. I could’ve explained it better but you need to better when you drop comments. Iron sharpens iron my brother
@@TiberiousGib But even that is wrong again. The barrel isnt "bigger" because the 9mm bullets have more mass its because 9mm have much more pressure! 380 is around 21,000 psi while 9mm is around 35-38,000psi. And yes I feel good about my comment.
Well it makes you look like childish. I invite you to block my channel and never watch or comment again. I will pray that you realize the value of constructive criticism and how to act like a man on and off the internet. Once again, iron sharpens iron.
Thanks for the video. Which one do you like better ? The 9 mm or 380? I’m a carpenter, so I’m used to hanging onto tools/lumber all day, so I’m not that concerned about the recoil but I’m wondering if this would be a more accurate then a 9mm.
I used to own a 9mm 365 and it was great until I tried to shoot it with any speed in defensive drills. Me and the gun just never got along. I had to go to the bigger Glock 26 to get any kind of effectiveness. But during my “training” I discovered the relative ease in which I could effectively run drills with my 22 TX Taurus. I attribute this to the lack of recoil and my limited grip strength. I plan on renting the 380 as the 365 makes a great pocket pistol! I’m very interested indeed in this gun. Thanks for the review.
The 380 and 9 mm and the 357 magnum and the 38 are all the same size round. .355 The difference is the weight 380 is usually a Shorter 90g with a slightly smaller powder charge and shorter cartridge. The 9 mm is exact same diameter only taller usually a 125g with a taller cartridge and slightly larger powder charge but all in all the same size round. Different pressures and lengths. During the ammo crunch I used 38 special hollow points loaded them in 9 mm brass the only difference is the nose of the round is a soft hollow tip lead which may fall up under multiple use but these rounds function flawlessly through my P 80 and I would do it again no problem probably wouldn’t send him through my Glock though lol OL
9mm and 380 auto are .355” in diameter. 357 magnum and 38 special are .357” in diameter. They are not the same. Depending on the bullet, using a .357 jacketed bullet in a .355 bore can potentially cause a pressure spike.
If the two pistols are the exact same size in dimensions with the exception of the 9 mm being a few ounces heavier, then its a no brainer the gun you want to save your life in a last resort fight to the death. the 9mm capacity is 12+1 the .380 acp is 10+1 so theres another teson to get the 9 mm. Frankly your making a bad choice buying the .380 acp. Why if the 9mm is the exact same size? They are both concealable . And what your doing is choosing a caliber of lower velocity lower energy lower capacity, lower stopping power. Even with the 9 mm you loose velocity in a smaller barrel. Remember winchester 115 grn silvertip was so much so of an under rated performer in the mami dade shoot out 1986 that Matix was shot 12 times and still fought and injured FBI agents before he finaly stopped. 12 " penetration became the FBI standard. The 9mm is a better stopper.
What is someone can’t accurately shoot the 9mm but they’re comfortable with the 380? For me, I’ll take the 9mm lol But what about smaller folks like many women, older folks, newer shooters, etc.
.380 is the perfect CCW caliber. Enough to get the job done without over penetration. People who CC have to remember there’s an attorney attached to every round that comes out of the barrel, you’re not in warzone, you’ll most likely be in public with who knows what as a backdrop and you won’t have qualified immunity like the police.
Now with everything having so much capacity in 9mm I don’t see why I would personally carry the 380 over a 9mm. I am not recoil sensitive. 9mm would be the lowest I would go.
@@TiberiousGib the gun you are able to shoot well and willing to carry every day is the gun you should go for. I carry the 365 9mm but would take a 380 over a sharp stick anyday...
The 380 is smooth and shoots like a 22LR.
I’m 6’3 300lbs and I’d pocket carry it in a heartbeat
Agreed
find that hard to believe that the larger 380 shoots like a smaller 22LR with less than half the grain and less than half the gun powder
Love my P365-380. It’s definitely what I carry when I have to deep conceal (professional environments) and I love how easy it is for follow up shots. I have the CZ P10C and the P365XL that I’ll use in winter months or where I’m not as worried about printing. Great video!

They lightly did that on purpose is my guess

recoil force in a 380 vs 9mm, how much of a difference are we talking ?
Hard to put a percentage on it, 20-30% if I had to guess.

So, wonder if you could put a p365 upper on the 380 lower????
I think so
The 380 P365 is a locked breach instead of a blow-back design. Might be why it's much softer shooting than maybe another 380?

I'd be curious how the 9mm loaded with Hornady Critical Defense Lite (100 gr) feels compared to the 380 loaded with a 90 gr defensive round. That might make a better option if you don't want to add a new caliber.
Good question, I’ll try to get my hands on some
@@TiberiousGibMy gunsmith sold me a used DPM recoil guide/spring for the 365 9mm.

Faster and smaller groups make it well worth the price ( the DPM guides are usually well over $100)
Could you put the .380 spring in the 9mm configuration?
I’m
Not sure, I will try next time I go to the elite indoor range
I’m curious about that as well. It would be interesting to load some 380 level rounds for the 9mm.
I wish SIg would sell the 380 slide complete so that anyone could swap it on and off their 9mm P365. If it were priced right I'd buy one just for the fun of it.
I think they might once the demand for the 380 slows down a bit
Ya I’m with you on that. The conversation kit and mags add up
Need both with manual safety....hw much?
No clue, gotta Google it bro
Why would u want a smaller caliber that holds less?just curious
Not for me but lots of folks are recoil sensitive
Because California laws. No guns with more than 10 round magazine 😂😂😂😂😂
Good one. Thx!
Thank you
Great video
Thanks 🙏
Are you more accurate with one over the other?
Maybe the 380 a little bit more because there is less felt recoil
Are you in the north east? Philly, NJ, NYC? You know why I'm asking. haha
Yup 😂 I am in RI
@@TiberiousGib I lived in NJ, so, yeah. Heheh
Can I use my regular 365 9mm and put 380 rounds to be used on the 380? And vice versa?
Nope, need to switch out at least the barrel and possibly the slide
Will iron sites made for the 9mm also fit on the 380 ?

380 is cool but 9mm will always be the best in my opinion.

..Depends what and where it's needed ..
Sig needs to make the p365XL in 380 and not lose the rear sight too when an optic is on it
You can put the p365 380 FCU into an XL grip but I don’t think they make mags
Idk if 380 uses the same extractor as a 9mm but if it does then they shoud sell a conversion barrel for the p365xl and make 380 12 rnd mags too
For the 380.
The 15 rounder as a back up would be nice
The 12rd mags work great I have seen videos of people using the 9mm 15rd mags with the 380. military arms channel did but have not tried it myself
I am a novice shooter who is in the market for a CCW. Which of these would be the better option? Is there a significant difference in ease of racking the slide?
The 380 is slightly easier to rack but much softer shooting, try to get one in your hands before you decide
I would go less recoil with the .380 version. Novice shooter to me means that you don't go to the range much, so the higher ammo costs for .380 wont be that big of a deal
Everybody that compares 380s always leave out the Bersa plus 15+1 380 for one with less capacity. Por que ? 🤨
Cause it’s a Bersa

Ruger LCP Max might fit your needs nicely
Can you put the 9mm barrel recoil spring in the .380 slide and it work?
It would likely fit but not run well.
Agreed, the recoil weight on the 380 is lighter, for a lighter bullet. Softer recoil.@@TiberiousGib
hey was hoping if you can let me know if the model chambered in .380 function properly when firing, i have one and the gun store around the corner told me the mags weren’t compatible that the 9mm model was in fact bigger.
The 380 was flawless even with the 9mm mags but I do NOT recommend you carry the 380 with 9mm mags
@@TiberiousGib most definitely for range use only but thanks for getting back to me it’s really appreciated got the sig P365-.380 as my first handgun for the reduced recoil for fast follow-up shots.
Don’t know if someone has already corrected the info on time 2:08… that’s NOT the 380, but the 9mm!!! i love the 380…
BTW… EXCELLENT VIDEO!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Pretty sure that was the 9mm with the curved trigger but anything is possible
WOAH WOAH WOAH.. Can anyone else confirm that new (2023) P365-380's are shipping with the flat-face trigger (instead of the curved one)?? All the stock photos I see online (including Sig Sauer's) show it with the curved one.. If that's the case, then I just got the wrong firearm; I got the p365X because I prefer the flat trigger over the curved one and I'm not comfortable with the idea of a trigger swap/upgrade for my edc (even if it's done by a certified professional).
They are not, this one was swapped at the LGS I got it from
@@TiberiousGib, oh ok. Thanks for the response/info.. Yeah, I got the P365X and I plan on just gettin the 380 conversion kit. Problem is, the conversion kit is almost as expensive as gettin the whole firearm, but as stated, that curved trigger is a disqualifier for me.
Hi ,you put a good video out on the sig 365 -380 ,EZ rack ,EZ to shoot,I am older and I have compromise hand strength , Very soft shooter🔫
Thank you 🙏
Are the magazines swappable between 9 and 380?
Kinda, you can use the 9mm mags in the 380
But I don’t recommend it. I don’t think they will feed reliably
@@TiberiousGib thank you.
I'm just here for your algorithm
You are appreciated 🙌

Thank you for making this! Question, does a holster for the 9mm work for the .380 and vice versa? Ive been told by we the people holsters that the 9mm holster will work for the .380 however i am skeptical. any answers would be greatly appreciated!
I believe they will, they are pretty much identical in size
Yes the 380 can fit in the 9mm holsters perfectly no problem
I own the 380 & 365XL. It depends on the holster. The 9mm will not fit in a 380 holster IF it is actually molded for the 380 (2mm height difference). 380's will fit in 9mm holsters but fit can vary. Sig sells their 9mm holster for the 380 and says it fits with no issue (I emailed asking them about it). I have a T1-M for the 9mm and the 380 has a bit of shift due to the slide height difference. It is still very secure.
i like your sense of humor(hot loads) lol i subbed
That’s greatly appreciated
@@TiberiousGib how about a review of the red dot for 380 i'm seriously thinking about one
I love my P365-380. The only downside is the price of .380 ammo which obviously isn't the gun's fault. Now if they make a P365-380 XL then I'll be in heaven.
The oh can switch the grip but do they make larger 380
Mags?
Bersa has a 15+1 380.
i was just chillin on the sofa the other night and my sig jumped up and shot me, right in the fuckin shoulder. Got my lawyer on tha phone fa real.
Damnit Sig 🤣
Hey Tiberius, does someone make those plug in the mags that can be installed on a 9mm version?
Also can you use the 380 slide and drop in a 9mm barrel and 9mm spring assembly?
Thanks
I don’t think anyone
Makes the plugs for the 9mm mags to run 380
can you use the 380 slide and drop in a 9mm barrel and 9mm spring assembly?
I understand that the slide on the 380 is a couple of oz. lighter.@@jaysondamian1117
4:12 " The barrel is bigger because it shots a bigger round" WRONG its the same caliber. I cant understand how somone couldnt recognize this even so he handle both guns and both rounds. The 9mm it thicker because it has much more pressure. The slides are alos not the same. The 9mm slide has more mass.
Making that comment make you feel good? I can feel your insecurity.
When I said bigger barrel I didn’t mean the caliber, I meant the mass. I could’ve explained it better but you need to better when you drop comments. Iron sharpens iron my brother
@@TiberiousGib But even that is wrong again. The barrel isnt "bigger" because the 9mm bullets have more mass its because 9mm have much more pressure! 380 is around 21,000 psi while 9mm is around 35-38,000psi. And yes I feel good about my comment.
Well it makes you look like childish.
I invite you to block my channel and never watch or comment again. I will pray that you realize the value of constructive criticism and how to act like a man on and off the internet. Once again, iron sharpens iron.
@@TiberiousGib Tss learn how to take criticism like man and grow up boy !
The use of the term recoil sensitive is group think in action. Baa people, say baa.
What????
Thanks for the video. Which one do you like better ? The 9 mm or 380? I’m a carpenter, so I’m used to hanging onto tools/lumber all day, so I’m not that concerned about the recoil but I’m wondering if this would be a more accurate then a 9mm.
I recommend 9mm unless the pistol is for someone who is recoil sensitive
Thanks . I appreciate it
@@TiberiousGib what about the weight?
Sorry you have the clap. Great review though
Time for penicillin?
Clap was a 3
Damn, I gotta work on that
Who doesn’t love a hotta load? LOL
Exactly 😬🙌
I used to own a 9mm 365 and it was great until I tried to shoot it with any speed in defensive drills. Me and the gun just never got along. I had to go to the bigger Glock 26 to get any kind of effectiveness. But during my “training” I discovered the relative ease in which I could effectively run drills with my 22 TX Taurus. I attribute this to the lack of recoil and my limited grip strength. I plan on renting the 380 as the 365 makes a great pocket pistol! I’m very interested indeed in this gun. Thanks for the review.
Finding the gun that works for you and your hands is very important. Those really small guns are difficult to shoot
The 380 and 9 mm and the 357 magnum and the 38 are all the same size round. .355 The difference is the weight 380 is usually a Shorter 90g with a slightly smaller powder charge and shorter cartridge. The 9 mm is exact same diameter only taller usually a 125g with a taller cartridge and slightly larger powder charge but all in all the same size round. Different pressures and lengths. During the ammo crunch I used 38 special hollow points loaded them in 9 mm brass the only difference is the nose of the round is a soft hollow tip lead which may fall up under multiple use but these rounds function flawlessly through my P 80 and I would do it again no problem probably wouldn’t send him through my Glock though lol OL
Very true
9mm and 380 auto are .355” in diameter. 357 magnum and 38 special are .357” in diameter. They are not the same. Depending on the bullet, using a .357 jacketed bullet in a .355 bore can potentially cause a pressure spike.
2.5
I need to step it up
@@TiberiousGib LMAO, just screwing with you
If the two pistols are the exact same size in dimensions with the exception of the 9 mm being a few ounces heavier, then its a no brainer the gun you want to save your life in a last resort fight to the death. the 9mm capacity is 12+1 the .380 acp is 10+1 so theres another teson to get the 9 mm. Frankly your making a bad choice buying the .380 acp. Why if the 9mm is the exact same size? They are both concealable . And what your doing is choosing a caliber of lower velocity lower energy lower capacity, lower stopping power. Even with the 9 mm you loose velocity in a smaller barrel. Remember winchester 115 grn silvertip was so much so of an under rated performer in the mami dade shoot out 1986 that Matix was shot 12 times and still fought and injured FBI agents before he finaly stopped. 12 " penetration became the FBI standard. The 9mm is a better stopper.
What is someone can’t accurately shoot the 9mm but they’re comfortable with the 380? For me, I’ll take the 9mm lol
But what about smaller folks like many women, older folks, newer shooters, etc.
.380 is the perfect CCW caliber. Enough to get the job done without over penetration. People who CC have to remember there’s an attorney attached to every round that comes out of the barrel, you’re not in warzone, you’ll most likely be in public with who knows what as a backdrop and you won’t have qualified immunity like the police.
Not sure about perfect, if I have the choice I’ll take 9mm but I like options
Thanks for the review! Hot loads🤣
Thanks for watching 😁
11... Great review as always.. you should really do a bad review to prove you are human 😆 🇮🇪 ☘
I try to stay away from junk but I have a crappy product review coming
Now with everything having so much capacity in 9mm I don’t see why I would personally carry the 380 over a 9mm. I am not recoil sensitive. 9mm would be the lowest I would go.
The 380 wouldn’t be my first choice but it’s not a bad choice
@@TiberiousGib the gun you are able to shoot well and willing to carry every day is the gun you should go for. I carry the 365 9mm but would take a 380 over a sharp stick anyday...
@@TiberiousGib think they'll make it in 30sc?
