    I love S&W products and I am a Glock guy... I like your videos but telling people " you have a gun or then brandish it" is a very bad idea....My background is a retired long time street cop...bad advice but enjoy your videos..

      What are you talking about? I can’t speak facts? The facts are when there is a threat and people are in fear for their lives. 78% of the time they have to draw it or mention it without firing. The other 22% of the time the person had to fire. THESE ARE STATISTICS FROM A GEORGETOWN STUDY

    • @oklahomahank2378
      @oklahomahank2378 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +22

      Brandishing means displaying the gun when you are not justified in using deadly force. That makes it aggravated assault. If you draw the gun when you are in danger that is not brandishing. If the bad guy runs off when you draw the gun that is legal and not brandishing.

      First , relax I am NOT attacking you
      but I if you are quoting Dr English his work is not fully accepted...Second, When you say "tell them you are armed or show them the gun" it should be phrased pulled the gun because you were in fear...Show is not a good word to use, that implies brandishing..... I like your content just not that particular advice.....All good just trying to help..

    @ifly64s 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Just purchased two bodyguard 2.0's. One for me and one for my wife. One works perfectly with hundreds of rounds. The other one will not fire at all because the unfired round jams in the chamber locking the slide forward slightly out of battery. I had to push the slide against the range table to finally get the cartridge out. Did this with PMC Bronze FMJ and Remington Hollow Points. Did it with both the 10 round and 12 round mags from both guns. It is off to S&W for warranty. I figure that the chamber is out of spec. I tried putting a round into the chamber with the barrel out of the gun. It was very difficult to remove the cartridge. Did the same with the good gun and the cartridge would fall out on its own. Love, love, love the gun. I just got a bad one and a good one.

    My experience with LCP, LCP2, LCP Max, Bodyguard, Glock 42 - never had any issues. I still think the micro compact, 6+1 guns have their place, but there are fewer and fewer instances when they make sense over the LCP Max (and now the Bodyguard 2.0). I'll be picking up a 2.0 at the soonest because I think it will be taking the primary place as my pocket-size option.

    Need a Kahr cw380. Smaller than Glock and nicer than Ruger. Never understood why they aren’t more popular. It was striker fired when literally every other 380 was hammer fired. I shot it next to the Bodyguard 2.0 last week, it’s still a great option if you’re ok with 6+1.

  • @1776REIGNS
    @1776REIGNS 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Kahr P380 and CW380 capacity is 6+1 (7+1 with MagGuts), are +P rated, have a phenomenal trigger and are only .75" thick which is .02" thicker than the Beretta Pico but the Kahr's are smaller overall. Granted, they have a long pull, but it's butter smooth... like a very good double action revolver. It'll be hard to unseat it as my pocket carry but I'm going to give the Bodyguard 2.0 a chance to do so. Surprised you don't have one on the table as they're very nice in every way. Yeah... I'm biased for now. Nice video!

    Spn! How does it compare in size for the reflex? I have yet to find any local stores with the Bg 2.0 in stock and am curious how it sizes up with the reflex. The reflex is my smallest handgun but am really looking for a pocket carry and the price on this thing seems to seal the deal.

    I love the Bodyguard in all facets. It's a tremendous pistol for its niche. I just have one question...
    What are your thoughts about the two-part feed ramp that it has?
    Do you have problems chambering hollow or flat points? Mine seems to have that Failure to Feed with such rounds...

  • @LatestHour
    @LatestHour 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The Glock 42 is one of my favorite pistols to shoot at the range. Most small .380s can't fill that role. But if the BG 2.0 shoots as well as you say it does, then it has a real contender as a multi-role pistol.

  • @lifeofmike556
    @lifeofmike556 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I have a Diamondback DB9 that I use specifically for pocket carry however one thing I dislike about it is how it doesn’t have any type of safety on it whatsoever. The trigger is also quite light. It’s the smallest 9mm pistol you can buy but I think I’m okay with going down to .380 ACP for the M&P 2.0

    Good neighborhood argument makes no sense. Criminals travel to commit crime. I grew up in a town with lots of poverty, drug crime, and gang crime, so im not stranger to violence. Now that I've grown up I've moved into the middle class suburbs without much crime. However, the crime here is from people from a nearby town traveling here to vommit crime (lot more expensive stuff to steal here than there). Just because we aren't commiting crimes in our communities does mean someone else wont enter them and do so. So yeah, a living in a nice place doesn't mean anything. Can't count the stories of people in nice suburbs being killed. When you buy a handgun you're not just buying it to be prepared at a sketchy gas station you're buying it to be prepared at all times.

    I will be honest, I have no need for a pocket pistol, but I wanted this little pistol as soon as I held it. So of course it came home with me immediately after that.👊 I have not had much time with it, I've only put 5 mags down range to make sure it functions. Plus I didn't have any .380 ammo as this is my only .380, I had to go get some. The only other S&W I have is the Equalizer, and they are very similar pistols and they shoot very similarly, obviously the Boduguard 2.0 is smaller, but it is like the shrank the Equalizer into the Bodyguard 2.0👊

Otw to shoot at my range I found two videos (others must have been 3+ months old) and they talked about BG 2.0 and how it’s the cremè de la cremè, same capacity. I was getting anxious thinking how I basically spent the same money not knowing this was even a thing. Got to the range and was disappointed in myself because they had both as a rental. I decided to shoot my ruger. 100rd later I tried their BG 2.0. Phew, on all levels.

I checked out the new Bodyguard 380 at the store and the pistol grip felt like it was gonna feel as UNCOMFORTABLE as the original....

      What?
      How can you hold the Ruger or the old bodyguard and then say the new bodyguard is uncomfortable?
      BG2.0 is the absolute most comfortable and ergonomic pocket pistol I have ever held.
      I held it sxs with my current pocket carry lcp and it's time to sell the lcp and get the BG2.

      @@preston1614 I said I held it but have NOT shot it and simply based on such a narrow gun it reminds me why the original Bodyguard was uncomfortable because it was snappy and the narrow pistol grip hurt the web of the hand. As I hear from many other videos, they addressed the snappiness so issue of hurting the web of the hand may no longer be the issue.....
      In regard to the ergonomics, YES they are BETTER and I like the pistol grip angle, typical M&P. I am a BIG M&P 2.0 fan. I will wait for Academy to offer the 10% Veteran Discount in the fall. BTW, the Bodyguard 2.0 that I held has an external safety...

    8:19 There are people who don't pocket carry these guns, instead they do IWB or OWB with these. That's why the SIG P365 quickly made their gun optic ready, and most of the followers (S&W and Ruger included) are doing it for the same reason. One can choose to pocket carry, and not installed a red dot, but other can stick it in the waist band and choose to put a red dot on it, and optic readiness makes more people choose the way that works for them :)

    • @Amaterasu-wh6xj
      @Amaterasu-wh6xj 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      i think a big reason why pocket pistols aren't optics ready is that no one makes optics small enough to fit them. i've never owned a pocket pistol, but to my knowledge, most of them are an inch or less in width, and most of the optics i've handled, the mounting screws would be too far apart to mount to something that small. i'd be intrigued if someone came out with something small enough for a pocket pistol though

    • @spnfirearms

      Slide literally isn't wide enough. If you want an optic, get an optic ready pistol and carry this in addition to our in lieu of the optic cut pistol. That's my use case for it. I will always carry my MC9 with holosun EPS Carry and default to it unless I literally can't and I have use cases when I can't.
