This pistol is interesting in that it is simply adequate for a variety of uses.
Small and light weight, but not too small and light for a fighting pistol.
Simple blow-back design.
8+1 capacity w/ the inexpensive Mec-Gar mags.
The 3.5" Bbl. makes the most out of the minimalist .380 ACP SD rounds.
Flat-nosed FMJ make for an adequate trail round.
Comfortable to shoot precisely, even by inexperienced shooters.
Did I mention the "cool" factor?

All that is kinda the way I feel about my Sig P238 .380 pistol. It gets carried a lot. Rock solid reliable. Seven round mags. I can shoot it damned well, and it handles great. And .380 ACP, with the right loads, can do the job.
