The latest is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guns.com\/firearms\/handguns\/semi-auto\/smith-&amp;-wesson-bodyguard-2-0-nms-380-acp-striker-12-rounds-2-75-barrel-new?p=1339529\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">.380 ACP Bodyguard 2.0<\/a>. The original <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guns.com\/firearms\/handguns\/semi-auto\/smith-&amp;-wesson-bodyguard-380-380-acp-semi-auto-6-rounds-2-75-barrel-used?p=1305088\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bodyguard<\/a> was released back in 2010 and was similar in size and capacity to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guns.com\/firearms\/handguns\/semi-auto\/ruger-lcp-380-acp-double-action-6-rounds-2-75-barrel-new?p=1172256\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ruger LCP<\/a>. The new Bodyguard 2.0 looks to be a whole different creature with a different frame and slide design and a double-stack magazine accommodating 10- or 12-round magazines. Its styling is consistent with more recent M&amp;P releases. It looks to be comparable in size to Ruger\u2019s LCP Max and will likely go toe to toe with it in the higher capacity micro-compact market. The Bodyguard 2.0 has an overall height of 4 inches, is a bit under 1-inch wide and only weighs 9.8 ounces unloaded.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-547704\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-560x700.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-560x700.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-150x188.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-696x870.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-1068x1335.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13927-sw-Pistol-lifestyle_0247-336x420.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Bodyguard 2.0 is striker fired with a flat-faced trigger and has a more ergonomic grip and slide serrations than its older brother the Bodyguard. It still uses a polymer frame and stainless steel slide and barrel with black Armornite finish. It comes with a black U-notch rear sight and a tritium-insert front sight. Being a micro compact it does not come optics ready or with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.silencershop.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">threaded barrel for a suppressor,<\/a> but at the rate Smith &amp; Wesson is going with new releases, give it time, that may come. It comes in either a standard model or the TS model with a manual thumb safety.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-547702 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-700x614.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-700x614.png 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-300x263.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-768x674.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1536x1348.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-2048x1798.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-150x132.png 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-696x611.png 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1068x937.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1920x1685.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-478x420.png 478w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-560x492.png 560w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 696px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 696\/610;\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-547702\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-700x614.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-700x614.png 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-300x263.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-768x674.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1536x1348.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-2048x1798.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-150x132.png 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-696x611.png 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1068x937.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-1920x1685.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-478x420.png 478w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/13926-sw-Pistol-OnWhite-3Q-Left-560x492.png 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tech Specs:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Caliber: .380 ACP<br \/>Size: Micro Compact<br \/>Width: 0.75 in.<br \/>Length: 5.25 in.<br \/>Height: 4.1 in.<br \/>Weight: 9.8 oz.<br \/>Capacity: 10,12<br \/>Action: Striker Fired<br \/>Barrel Length: 2.75 in.<br \/>Grip: Polymer<br \/>Sights: Black<br \/>Color\/Finish: Black<br \/>Barrel material: Stainless Steel<br \/>Frame: Polymer<br \/>Number of magazines: 2<br \/>MSRP: $449<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><em>Your gun is hungry.
