I'll tell you, don't get a .380acp.
It's small, the factory self defense rounds are expensive & may be hard to find, the semi auto pistol may jam or misfire, and it's power level is low compared to 9x19mm, .40, .357sig, .38spl +P.

Many US gun owners like the .380acp but it's not a good pick for home defense. Don't let 007 movies fool ya,
