Just a hair smaller than my .45 XDS...why .380 and not 9mm

[Phil_Osophy]

Is this one going to be availablr to the public here in the us? Or just le?

[mtchbrian]

Silly Europeans. They forget we fat Americans like thin guns, LOL!

Exactly. Nice job wasting new tooling for this. Sign me on as your business advisor and we will both be a lot better off.

Oh, I thought you meant me.

Is it 380 in general you want to go away or the idea of a 380 Glock?

Why is the availability of .380 the way it is? Not to mention the price tag on a box is out of this world.

Haha no not you! Just not a 380 Glock. I am not interested in any but I can see how some like them. If you can carry a .380 then you can carry a 9mm. 9 is cheaper, more available, more powerful and in different load outs.

Already talks of a 9mm conversion coming soon.

For some reason I've read plenty of people saying they wish they could get the 380 glocks. Now one is available and nobody cares. Even a pocket 9mm not sure it's the best platform to build from

Well, for one it's not THAT small. It's way bigger than it needs to be for a .380.

.380 = The Ghey

It's says Glock on the slide, they're sell a ton of them. Anyway I'm thinking a lot of women may buy it who want something a little softer shooting than 9x19. and I would imagine the spring will be weaker making it easier for them to rack the slide.

Exactly why I lack any interest. Unless it can outperform my PPK, why?

I've yet to have a single female under my instruction...

1. Not love the G19 (9mm)
2. Not be able to rack the slide after proper methods were taught.
3. Not realize they are fully capable of shooting something more than a .22 or a bullshit .38 revolver... or in this case a .380

Most women's fear of recoil is superficial and spurred on by their male counter part. Anyway, that's a whole different topic, so back to the one at hand.

Fail enough I've taught a few myself and most just need proper instruction.
But I would bet the typical women under your instruction is but a small percentage of the ones walking into a gun shop maybe for the first time.

Exactly why we need to see more women at the range training. I just have to teach a small percentage that can then teach a larger percentage and so on and so forth.

I hate that women get suckered into buying .22s, .25s, .380, and .38s. Especially by a bullshit salesman at a gun shop. We had two older ladies that attended one of our CCDW courses that were fooled into buying revolvers they didn't need. Then hated to shoot as well cause it hurt there hands with +p HD loads.

Anyway, sorry I'm in a ranting mood this morning... not enough coffee yet I guess.

Angie would be interested in participating in a womens class if you all chose to do one. I am sure some of her friends would be willing to take the class as well
