Oh, I didn't take "mousegun" as any serious criticism. I just thought it was funny and I thought of the pictures of P-easy's Desert Eagle. That's most definitely not a "mousegun!"
The reason I chose the .380 was because I could easily afford the gun and a .380 acp is much more powerful than a .22, which was my only other option.
Oh, welcome, Doc! The Yard is a great place!

Thanks for the welcome.... I never said Massad Ayoob "coined" the term...However... see: June 2009 Guns Magazine, page 20, Handguns column by Massad Ayoob... "Friends don't let friends carry mouseguns." I can't believe I even quoted the guy....I have been reading his stuff since he started writing...He has come a long way...He knew zip when he started...I used to laugh at his ramblings...but he has endured and gained respect in the knives and guns fraternity ...Good for him...I like perseverance...

Oh, welcome, Doc! The Yard is a great place! I took a Browning 380 to a last chance shoot...bowling pins, and the guys could not stop laughing and making fun...at least until I cleared the table and took second place. I was there with that gun to prove that its bullet placement and its not always about massive power. Welcome Doc Dumpster dan

My Bersa .380 is very accurate. The only pistol I have ever had in that size that was even close was my East German Makarov. My Kel-Tec .380 is the worst pistol I have for accuracy, but it seems reliable enough. My old Colt Gov't Model (mini-1911) is fairly accurate. Had a Walther PPK for while....well one range trip. What a POS that was. It was one of the Alabama made ones. I'd rather have a nickel plated Raven .32!

The Hi-Point carbine? I had one in 9mm. No complaints. It shot well and was stone reliable.

Thanks, my best gun for this type of shoot is an old Ruger 44 mag...loaded down of course. I have run more than 5,000 rounds through that gun so the action is very smooth and fast...for a single action. I do ok with autos by I dont usually miss with a revolver. The 454 Casual Raging Bull was a very accurate gun but that S&W 500 is amazing and it does not kick to talk about...that 454 wears you out after 20 rounds My favorite autos are a Baby Eagle 9mm (the best feeling handgun of all time), An older Wilson Combat 45...a one hole wonder. I carry my Keltch 32 cal everywhere...quite a little shooter and it fits in the palm of your hand and pocket. Dan
