Smith & Wesson
Bodyguard 2.0
New Products - September/October 2024
The Bodyguard 380 caught the attention of many when it first launched at SHOT Show 2010. Since then, the series has offered various models with lasers, external safeties, and even engraved slide finishes. With this next generation of micro handguns, Smith & Wesson set out to deliver a pistol with unparalleled performance in a small and lightweight platform.
When compared to the original model, the Bodyguard 2.0 boasts a new profile, has a higher capacity, and includes modern design enhancements that make this the ultimate concealed-carry choice. Chambered in .380 Auto, the pistol ships with a flush-fit 10-round magazine and an extended 12-round magazine, giving the user substantially more capacity. All models will be available with or without a thumb safety.
The Bodyguard 2.0 has an overall height of 4 inches, a width just under 1 inch, and weighs in at 9.8 ounces unloaded, which provides the user with a more comfortable fit and improved control. It also includes a striker-fired design and new flat-face trigger for better consistency and more accurate shots. Out of the box, the pistol ships with a black u-notch rear sight and a bright tritium-insert front sight, both of which allow the user to rapidly acquire and stay on target. SRP: $449.
