Expert review

The headline is capacity: 15+1 of .380 is rare in a gun this size, and the T.O.R.O. slide means you can mount a Holosun K-series dot straight from the box.

Mild .380 recoil plus a red dot is about the easiest recipe there is for accurate, repeatable hits under stress.

It suits everyday concealed carry, and the slim frame makes it just as comfortable appendix or on the hip.
