Description
The Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 .380 ACP 2.75in Black No Thumb Safety is a micro-compact, striker-fired handgun built for everyday carry and discreet personal protection. Chambered in .380 ACP, it uses a 2.75-inch stainless steel barrel inside a polymer frame to keep weight low while the black slide finish stands up to daily use. The grip texture and flat-face trigger help you shoot consistently, and the tritium front sight gives you a clear aiming reference in low light.
