Does the Smith and Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 live up to the hype?

   If you are here, you are aware that Smith & Wesson has released the Bodyguard 2.0. I want to know if the new pistol addresses the downfalls of the original M&P Bodyguard released in 2014.

   I also want to know if the Bodyguard 2.0 will de-throne the Ruger LCP Max that has what I think to be the current top spot for a pocket carry .380 ACP Pistol in this price range. 

I am going to use five metrics to determine a winner 

1. Ergonomics

2. Magazine capacity

3. Trigger pull

4. Accuracy at 7 yards

5. Reliability 

Some videos of our initial review can be found by visiting us on Instagram. You may be surprised by what we discovered in the shop, before even hitting the range.  

 Of course, we have Inside Waistband Holsters available now, they can be found HERE. 

We are going to update this article as we receive more information.

8-23-24 Update:

One of the issues we are having without Bodyguard 2.0 is it does no lock back on an empty magazine after the las round fired. 

Tim at Military Arms Channel is having ejection issues with his. The video recap can be found on X HERE.
