    Thanks for the info. I'm really surprised that anyone nowadays is willing to design a new .380 with larger dimensions than a modern 9mm.

    I'm actually a fan of the .380 cartridge and think it can be an effective defensive round with properly designed expanding ammo. But the whole point of carrying a smaller round is to pair it with a smaller, more concealable, pistol. Kahr and Ruger seem to understand this, Glock apparently does not. I'm hoping that this is just a stepping stone to the near term introduction of a single stack 9mm with similar dimensions.

    Roughly PPK sized. Wonder if it's locked breech or blowback. A 13 oz locked breech the same dimensions as a PPK should be easier to shoot than the micro .380s, looking on the bright side.

    Look on the bright side, at least it has a factory grip reduction and no finger grooves!

    Well, if this thing is really going to be a .380, then I call it a FAIL. I'm sure the hardcore kool-aid drinkers will be all over it though, just because it's one of Gaston's products.

    Said a guy with "kurtz" in his screen name... that's excellent.

    (and also, I agree)
