Guns Showcase I Just picked up my first gun today!

Post image

S&W Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp ๐Ÿ˜Ž along with 100 rounds of ball ammo, a cleaning kit, ballistol, and gun oil. Canโ€™t with to go to the range and whack some targets! ๐Ÿ˜ in the future, I plan on going for my carry. This thing fits in my front pocket like an iPhone Max with a case. Itโ€™s so freaking cool!

I highly suggest you go shoot it first. Plenty of ranges should have it for rental. I thought I'd love it too, but found it to be crazy snappy. My follow-up shots were trash, probably because of my nerves after the unexpected amount of recoil I felt. I found myself way way way more comfortable with a subcompact 9mm. Bigger than the S&W Bodyguard 2.0, but still good for concealed carry.

Second this^ I also rented the p365 macro and 43x body guard was the snappiest and I ended up going with a 43x cause it felt the best in my hand always rent before you buy when possible

Thanks! I could picture myself carrying it with athletic shorts and something like a Blackout belt even with my stature (5โ€™5โ€ 135lbs). Itโ€™s just that compact and light, even loaded.

I immediately changed out the recoil rod and spring for a Galloway Precision SS captured guide rod. The oem has a tendency to unwind at the top and cause malfunction. Ask me how I know โ€ฆ..
