        No threaded barrel is the deal breaker. All guns should have threaded barrels for the sake of compatibility with suppressors and compensators.

          Please shut the frick up. My carry gun doesn't need a red dot. My carry gun doesn't need compensator. My carry gun doesn't need a weapon light.

          It just needs to be small, light, and shoot reliably inside of 10 yards. That's it. Enough with all of these ridiculous "requirements".

            >need a red dot
            Correct. A RDS just adds bulk to your gun. It's a snag hazard during draw and you don't need them for most self defense senarios. People can shoot pretty far with pistol irons, too.

            >doesn't need compensator
            It DOES need a threaded barrel, though, so you can put on a suppressor when you need to be quiet. Ideally, you carry a detached suppressor separately with your CCW. A micro compensator is just a thread protector for when you aren't using the suppressor.

            >doesn't need a weapon light.
            Depends entirely on the time of day you are carrying the gun. Personally I'd rather carry a separate light that I can use without pointing a gun at people.

              Such a shame you have to choose.
              Maybe if you weren't carrying that suppressor around everywhere, you could have a flashlight AND have a light on the gun?

                I hold a light and a gun at the same time. It's actually better than a fixed light on the pistol, because you can point the light at potential threats without committing aggravated assault and going to jail for 7 years.

                Some guy banned you from his twitch stream because you said the n word in chat. You bought a VPN, then found someone in a shady discord who's willing to dox this streamer in exchange for 400 doge coins. You case their house with google maps, crowbar the back door during one of their late night streams and force them to say the n word on stream repeatedly, until their stream gets auto banned by Twitch's censor bot.

                The suppressor in this instance shows that you mean business. It tells them that you were willing to go all the way to this point and you've prepared to go one step further if they don't do what you want.

                .380 is naturally subsonic which automatically makes it a good suppressor host.

                .380's are also often straight blowback, fixed barrels, which isnt great for sound suppression, however it does allow you to hold on to the can as if it were a grip if you wanted to,or bumping/pushing the can into something while firing wont cause malfunction.

                Beautiful setup.

                But yeah the higher % of straight blowback is a lot of the reason people have lower opinions of 380 (though fixed barrel is good not bad for suppression, also means no need for piston).

                I heard straight blowback was bad for it, but wasnt sure why, if its actually good then obv i love 380's even more now. It alongside makarov are about as much power as you can practically get out of blowback pistol, i like them for being simple, reliable and accurate.
                Coming with a threaded barrel though i really think they should have a slidelock too, the kind that lets you fire without cycling the gun, for when you really want to be quiet.

                Straight blowback not good but fixed barrel has no inherent connection to that. Maxim 9 for thread example is fixed barrel gas delayed blowback.

                >that _every_ pistol needs a threaded barrel
                nta but another suppressor anon, and I think it's about price anon that's it. I would argue that pretty much every modern semiauto defense pistol that's $900 or more SHOULD have one, even if it's not "needed", in the same way they should have nice triggers at that price even though you can do perfectly fine with some heavy trigger as far as basic defense. It's simply not much of an ask at that point anon. There is a huge (and in fact far far far bigger) market for more reasonably priced non-gucci pistols and that's fine, people can have a barrel threaded or modify triggers or whatever else at that point and still end up with something cheaper. But if someone is buying a NICE pistol in 2023 I feel like those should all be gimmes from the factory, along with quality materials etc.

                Although also, "modern semiauto defense" used deliberately, I have no problem with fancy new makes of historic models and revolvers and so on. Some of those may specifically be going for a more classic look/feel and that's fine too. But a modern semiauto defense focused brand new gun at gucci pricing should be ready for other accessories imo. Not a total deal breaker but I do think it's kind of lazy not to and worthy of criticism.

                For 9mm aurora 2 is 3.5" long and viable for carry, for 380 dunno but if it can be done for 9mm probably something for 380.
                >If you're so butthurt over factory guns not coming pre threaded you obviously cant afford a suppressor for it.
                Imagine sucking baretta corp dick so hard you will excuse having to do extra bullshit on a $1k gun.

                And my normal EDC is an open carried Maxim 9 in a shoulder holster. I also have a Hyperion for my br. I have no problem with paying decent change for good items, and I also am fine excusing cheaper stuff that is also not fancy. But IF something costs a lot, then part of what should be getting paid for is minimal bs. If a $250-400 saturday night special doesn't come with threading or cut slide or whatever sure understandable, and likely buyers don't care. If a $1k+ gun doesn't that is laziness/greed.

                >Absolutely based, do you carry in the short config or the full config?
                Full. It's cool it can go shorter, but it's a sizable hg regardless (though actually compact for HG+can I guess) and an extra inch or whatever doesn't really change the (lack of) CC factor imo, so might as well just get full suppression out of it. Balance is also really nice, it's a great gun to shoot. Pity they stopped production, wish I'd grabbed like 3 of them when they were $900 instead of just the one.

                The real ideal next step per this thread would be the same basic design (maybe these days with 3D print improvements on top) but in 380 and thus significant smaller. That'd be a rad addition. But probably will never happen so long as suppressors are on the NFA. No matter how good they are, the market for integral guns seems to be too small.

            target acquisition is objectively faster with a red dot over irons, and that could very well make a difference in a self defense situation.

          I understand why you would want a factory threaded barrel for a suppressor, given your concern about protecting your hearing. However, I think you should take a step back and look at how niche your personal desire is, and consider that instead of wanting all barrels to be threaded to satisfy your wishes, maybe it should be up to you to just hit the aftermarket.

          Also, all of your gun publications and their "formula of enthusiasm" had to eat their hats when they all shilled the Colt All American 2000 as being the best thing ever in the early 1990's.

          TFB are shills.

              Everything that I have told you is true and is the factual reason why I no longer have confidence in TFB as an organization. I'm not a big Patrick fan but go and look up the series of events that resulted in his ousting from TFB.

              Shotgun News (now Firearm News) was also a big promoter of the Honor Guard pistol.

                It's not true. I know because I've seen the videos myself and they're what I said they are, which is enthusiastic reviews of the guns. Patrick smacktick. I'm not hung up on something in the past.

                It is true and they are paid to be enthusiastic even if the product is unsafe as was demonstrated with TFB's promotion of both the RAS47 and Honor Guard pistol back in 2017.

                James Reeves at TFB seems to be a nice enough guy, but you only get his real opinion on something when he isnt being paid to promote it. For example, when James makes a video on his own volition about the AK47 just to meet his TFB TV video quota he makes it quite clear that he doesnt like the AK47 very much, but when he is (presumably) paid to tour the Zastava import facility in the USA where they do their 922(r) conversions, then all of a sudden James appreciates the AK47 and all of the work that goes into it.

                If you enjoy watching TFB TV or reading their blog then that is fine, just remember though that these people are paid to be excited about everything even if that excitement isnt justified.

      But there's never been any shortage of compact-to-fullsize, metal frame, blowback .380s at any point in the past century.
      Most people asking for "fullsize .380" were really wanting a modern, short-recoil pistol, to do for the standard carry pistol what the P3AT and its clones did for the pocket pistol, and many would prefer it to be polymer-frame and striker-fired too.
      So the 80x is an answer to a question very few people were asking.

      That said, 90% of everybody who ever said "I wish they made X, I'd buy one" wouldn't actually buy one even if you made it to precisely embody their specific conception of X and put a cherry on top. So I'm sure you're not wrong.

    Also, this is probably the best .380 ever made. Am I going to carry this over a 9mm? Doubt it. Am I going to carry this over an LCP MAX if I'm running to the bodega for a sixer of rainbow can bud light, also no. I was a little disappointed when Beretta emailed me after the video ran to say that wienered and locked should NOT be done because they can't guarantee that the safety will work in that condition, gotta say. Even so, name a better .380. And don't say the Mustang either. Cool gun, doesn't work.

We don't need to convince pro-gun viewers that they are right, we need anti- or gun-neutral viewers/readers to consider that they might not be. Also I'm too dumb to talk about politics.

    Its not about convincing anybody its about keeping people informed on the current gun law legal landscape. What we need is updates about the current gun control enviroment and info on who to support in order to thwart said gun control, but since TFB refuses to talk about "politics" in order to make their blog an advertiser safe space I have to go to The Truth About Guns in order to get all the latest updates on the legal front.

    >He covered the RAS47 and he covered (favorably!) the Honor Guard line of pistols, which I wouldn't touch. So if Patrick is the basis of your criticisms, thank you for validating his termination (which I had no say in, btw, I was not an editor at the time).

    You actually just proved my point. Of course Patrick covered those products favorably, because that is what he was paid to do by TFB. The problems started, and Patrick got fired, when Patrick's conscience kicked in and he told everyone "Actually these products are garbage and TFB wouldn't let me tell you that."

    Again, I'm not a Patrick fan boy and I have no idea where he even is now, but he got railroaded by TFB for telling the truth even when the truth was harmful to the reputation of the product TFB is being paid to promote and TFB fired him for it.

    By the way, which editor are you (allegedly)?

      It's funny how you act like you know the things you want to be true, which come from, of course, Patrick, but you don't know the things you do want to be true.
      Patrick basically did what he wanted to do in addition to what TFB asked him to do, so it's hard to separate fact from fiction. He's also the least credible person I've ever met. He told TFB he wanted to be promoted to editor or he'd quit, somehow not realizing that he was perhaps the least important and most unliked person at TFB and only got a job because of Alex. They said "ok, bye." He then asked for pay for a bunch of unfinished work he did since he was being fired. TFB said "you weren't fired, you quit." So he fricked himself with a rake there which was pretty funny. I also remember the Honor Guard thing coming up because after Tuohy discovered the P320 drop test, Patrick hit ever gun in his house with a hammer. No one asked him to do that. He made the P320 go off with a hammer (but not really - Yankee Marshall ROASTED him - and TFB, even though it was only Patrick - for that, and it destroyed our relationship with Sig, but you can find that story on TYM's channel). He finds out the Honor Guard does the same thing and then calls their CEO himself to tell him he's going to run a story on it. TFB tells him to stop mainly because Patrick built the very gun he bashed with a hammer and TFB wanted to make sure Patrick was correct, but he turned that into TFB protecting Honor Guard, who had no relationship with TFB whatsoever.
      I'm not privy to what was discussed between Patrick and our bosses at the time (all of whom have been gone for ~5 years), but I have never been asked to favorably cover one thing or another in 10 years. Cf. Hop. Couple that with Patrick having a shit reputation for honesty & a vendetta against TFB and there you go.

          Also, you are not helping your argument by inserting your own opinions and calling people "walking third trimester abortions". Is that the kind of journalistic integrity that the people over at TFB adhere to?

          I'm not inclined to take anything Patrick says as true, but like I already pointed out with the article from TTAG, Patricks claims about the Honor Guard pistol have been verified as true by others. That fact wont change no matter what kind of crude names you use to refer to Patrick or Alex.

    Why can't Beretta make a mini 92, like M1951 sized with a modern 1.5 stack magazine? Sure whatever, 380 can be viable. But the P365 is the standard. No reason to carry a larger 380. So make a 9mm.

      Beretta locking block designs make the slides thicker than the grip, so I'm not sure a 1.5 stack would get them anywhere. Closest thing would be a 92X Compact, probably.

        the 80 series was designed in the 1970s and it was absolutely meant as a carry gun. There are agencies that actually use this as a duty pistol (in like fricking Asian countries where the average height is 4'9" but still)

        There’s this thing called a “magazine”, anon. And a Makarov’s “magazine”, being single stack, is very convenient to slip into a pocket.

        BTW, Maks hold 9, 8 in the mag and one in the chamber.

        As for grips being “dick shaped”, if you ever urinated standing up, you might find that making a “dick shaped” grip makes for a rather intuitive hold for a normal man.

        Soviets and Bugmen were always more realistic about why officers are given pistols…it’s not meant for action against the enemy, but rather for against their own troops to induce THEM to take action against the enemy.

        If you need more than a side arm, you have a discipline problem, and then you need to call up the NKVD formations to help you restore discipline and revolutionary zeal and fighting spirit among your men.
