[QUOTE="ldp4570, post: 1019541, member: 5168"] The .380 like the .32 are designed to work well with a barrel of at least 3.9" to 4". Once you start shortening the barrel you loose alot quick. Evaluating the LCP to a S&W J-frame, the S&W is going to win hands down. Granted it may not hold as many bullets as an LCP or some of the other small pocket rockets, but it makes up for it with its ability to throw a heavier projectile, different bullet shapes i.e. WC, SWC, SJHP. I would suggest you read up on Jim Cirillo, and the gunfights he has been in an on the ammunition used, and his conclussions of projectile configurations that worked, where others failed. [/QUOTE]
