The newer personal defense loads from Hornady and Speer show similar penetration in gel to .380s.
With that in mind, 5 rounds from a nearly infallible platform such as a single action revolver compared to a 6 round .380 auto.......well there is some real appeal there for many folks including myself.

I guess it depends how large one's hands are and what kind of dexterity they have in their hands. There's no way in hell that I can pump rounds from a NAA single action mini revolver in the same time as I can a LCP, P3AT, or P32. That's not even comparing the power difference between the rounds. Finally, it's 5 rounds versus 6+1 rounds. BTW, I carry a NAA in the office and a P32 outside of the office/home. I only carry a NAA when there is absolutely no other option.
Oh, and this is the other part - from those kind of short barrels (1 1/8, 1 7/8), a 25ACP performs as well.
