I think the improved stopping power and "always loaded" mode of the 38 spl has me rethinking my decision to go with a Makarov (very similar to the .380). Yeah, you give up a couple of rounds - but you HAVE to be more accurate with your .380 shot placement, anyway...so you might be better off winging someone with a serious hole...rather than seriously aggravating someone with those little .380 holes...
Just my two cents!
