I am sure that the Bodyguard has a firing pin block safety so unless you carry in a pocket or pocket holster I'd leave the safety off. I'm wishing now that I had ordered the 380 without the thumb safety. I use Testors Gold paint and paint the back of the front sight. As for the front sights on these small critters, I do the same as I do with my CAS Revolvers.
The thumb safety on the Bodyguard 380 is so stiff you have to be Magilla Gorilla just to get it off of safe. It's not all that much larger or heavier than the Ruger and the platform, while smaller than the 1911 style, is more familiar I can't comment of the Bodyguard, but I have a Ruger for sale. Might even take my wife's Charter Arms Undercover. I'm taking my old Star M-42 in 9mm, a 1903 Colt. A little more practice will improve the groups. All shooting was done at 2" x 4" wood scraps at a distance of 30 feet and all but one or two shots were within a 5"-6" circle. I had never fired the S&W before and the other two hadn't been fired in about five years. 398 S&W, even with the very narrow front sight and an almost invisible rear notch.
I fired it first and thought I had just lost my touch, but did much better than I expected (considering how long I had been away) with a Colt MK IV / Series 80 Government Model - 380 Auto, a Rock Island 1911A1. First time I shot in several years due to some medical issues. My only issue with the little gun is the size: my hands are so big I can't get a decent grip on the gun and was shooting all over the hillside. When returning an item, please add package tracking and adequate insurance.Went out yesterday with the new LCP that Santa brought me.
