Yes, a friend of mine purchased one (from Hero-Gear) not long ago. He loves it.

I tried to shoot it, but being used to longer barrels, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. He is a much better shot with it.

Makes a great muzzle flash when it's getting dark.

He's still looking for a holster. Can't seem to find one. Fits well in his pocket, though.

Very good piece. Customer had one at a gun shop and let me handle it. I've heard good things but have never shot one. I own a Baby Eagle II .40 and love it.

Kinda steep for a pocket pistol. You can get a G19 OTD cheaper than that. They are cool guns though. I got to handle 1. Very compact. Would love to shoot 1.

Steep indeed. They are cool little guns and I'd like to shoot one soon. They're fairly thin and slide right into your pocket, especially if you're wearing khakis or dress pants, and won't really stick out once in your pocket.

I haven't seen one in an actual store yet so I don't know what they are going for or if there's much markup/discount.

South Clinton Pawn Shop NIB $499

WD Sporting Goods $550 and thats with one extra mag.

High price for a .380 if you ask me, but I like the way it feels and looks.

Kinda like the differance between a big legg'd woman and a skinny chick,, guess it's what you want and how much your willing to pay.

I guess as far a "practical" I'd be better off with a M&P or an XD

GFA had 1 yesterday for 539.00. I didn't like the way it dealt in my hand but you can tell it's well built & very solid.

Make sure you check the clearance for your hand so the slide doesn't eat up your hand when it comes back. I have relatively fat hands and when I checked it out at H-G it would have eaten my hand up.....my $.02.

That was one of the first things I look'd at,,,,,,all I can say very close.

My wife has a baby desert Eagle in .45 caliber...great pistol..same problem..if you want a decent holster you'll have to have one made..or you're reduced to using an uncle mikes.
