The CA-380 uses a fixed, pinned steel barrel in a simple blowback system, delivering a straightforward operating setup in a micro-size package. The striker-fired, single-action mechanism pairs with a manual safety, and the safety lever also locks the magazine catch during magazine removal.
This chrome-finished variant has a chrome slide and frame with rear slide serrations and black textured grips featuring the "CE" medallion. The sights are fixed, providing a low-profile sight picture.
Dimensions are compact: a 2.8-inch barrel, 5.4-inch overall length, and 4.0-inch height. Capacity is 5+1 rounds in .380 ACP, and the included factory magazine is marked "Cobra Enterprises / UTAH / 380/32," indicating the shared magazine pattern with the CA-32.
Manufacturer markings on the slide read "COBRA ENT. OF UTAH INC." over "SALT LAKE CITY, UT, U.S.A." The serial number is located on the backstrap/heel. The model traces its lineage to the Davis P-380 design and has been discontinued, adding clarity to its production context.
