Pocket rockets and mouse guns

[thughes]

I was recently asked my opinion on the BG380 and how I carry it. It is one of my favorite guns, made even better after a few mods. Galloway Precision makes some great performance parts, I have added their trigger kit and installed the MagGuts kit in all my mags (+1 round simply by changing the internals...gives me 8 rounds of .380 in a TINY gun). I've run several hundred rounds through the mags and gun since the mods and it has been 100% reliable, It is my main warm weather carry gun so I need to be confident that it is reliable. Talon grips round out the package.

Carry is either pocket carry in an Alabama Holsters front pocket rig (http://www.alabamaholster.com/produc...cket-holsters/) or AIWB in a On Your 6 Designs rig (https://onyour6designs.com/firearm-holsters/)


The Alabama rig:

Nice setup thug. I'll be checking out everyone's mouse setups. I definitely need one.

Can you provide a bit more detail on how the Galloway trigger kit improved things?

It doesn't decrease the effort but is does shorten the pull from 1 mile down to about 1/2 mile (anybody that owns one knows exactly what I'm talking about). The stock trigger is puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuull...and then break right before it hits the rear of the trigger guard, The kit takes it to puuuuuuuuull...break (with an adjustable stop to eliminate over-travel).

I used a Galloway trigger kit in a Ruger LC9 and it is night and day difference over factory trigger. Shorter pull, clean break and definite reset are some of the things that make it better. Problem with me is I won't carry the gun for SD now that I modified it. Whether it is true or not, I'm more comfortable with my carry guns being left 100% stock for potential liability reasons in the event I'd ever need it in a SD scenario. I know there are TONS of opinions about this on both sides of the fence so no need to argue about it here

Same thing with the LC9 kit.

Warfab, you're a member at GCL correct? If you and/or your FiL want to try it, let me know and I'd be happy to meet you guys there to run some rounds through it.

PSA has a screaming deal on a BG380 in FDE through tomorrow at $270 + delivery (and transfer). Best deal I see elsewhere is around $380.

LCP in front pocket for me, holster similar to "alabama rig", I'm always checking to see if it's still there.

Anyone who uses one of these gun carry it on the ankle? With my work attire I have a hard time concealing a gun and I think all I have left is ankle carry. If one of these little guys could disappear there I would be very interested.
