S & W Bodyguard .38

[RyneB]

Im looking at purchasing a S & W bodyguard .38 with the built in laser. Most of my pistols are S & W, so i want to stick with what i have confidence in. Has anyone had first hand experience with this little revolver? I have never shot a hammerless revolver, or a pistol this small for that matter. It will be used for Concealed Carry in the future, if laws prohibit. I have handled the gun, I just havent had the opportunity to fire. If I am satisfied with this gun, my wife will most likely have one also. Any info and input would be appreciated.

I to have been eyeballing this pistol my wifes pushing me to get my permit because of all the break ins, muggings, and stabbings by illegal immigrants she wants me to be packing. She's probably gonna get one as well just the pink model. My cousin has one and she loves it but that's the only input I have on the gun.

They are good reliable gun. More of a stick it in their belly to get the bad guy off of you than a long range target pistol. The trigger pull is a little long and hard, but for this type of carry gun it works out well. The resale value is always good with a S&W.

The laser is cool at first, but after awhile you won't even keep it turned on.

Nice pistol. Good luck and have fun.

I didnt buy the .38. I got myself a S & W 22a and my 4th AK 47. Maybe next time.
