This M&P Bodyguard 380 is a micro .380 ACP within the M&P family, built around a double-action-only, hammer-fired system with second-strike capability. It incorporates a manual thumb safety, a push-button magazine release, and a visual loaded-chamber viewport. The frame is marked to indicate it is designed to fire with the magazine removed.
The pistol uses a stainless steel slide and barrel treated with a black nitride/Melonite-type finish for durability. The polymer frame reduces weight while the molded textured grip panels with S&W crests provide secure purchase. Rear fish-scale slide serrations aid manipulation.
Fixed sights include a low-profile front blade and a fixed rear notch. The compact 2.8 in barrel, approximately 5.25 in overall length, and about 11.85 oz unloaded weight keep the profile slim and carry-friendly.
Capacity is 6+1 rounds. The slide is marked "M&P BODYGUARD 380," and the barrel is marked "380 AUTO" / "BG 380." This model is made in the United States.
