Customer Comments & Questions

My wife has arthritis in her thumbs and the 380 EZ worked well at the dealership to pull the slide and load the clip. The problem as it turns out after we purchased the 380 easy she found it very hard to get the grip safety to work in her hands. Because she cant' get a good solid grip releasing the grip safety it becomes difficult to fire and has a tendency to stove pipe the empty cartridge. We are in the process of replacing it with a Smith and Wesson air light 38 special revolver works much better for her hand. Just keep in mind, see if the user has enough thumb to release the grip safety.
I purchased this gun to replace a Kimber Micro 9 that had an aggressive kickback, and was hard for me to rack. This gun is easy to load, easy to rack and great to shoot. I ordered mine without the thumb safety. The grip safety is sufficient for me, although I had to put some rounds through her before the grip safety loosened up a bit. It shoots accurately and is easy to conceal. I love the indicator that shows when there’s a round chambered.
Bought this gun for my wife as a CCW because the slide was so easy for her 52, 105#. Pretty easy to load, very little kick for being so light. Highly recommend to any woman as a purse weapon with its slim profile.
It's much easier to conceal than my Ruger 9mm as well, so it would likely work as a IWB carry but I am personally not a fan of the grip safety.
Also, the gun has a tendancy to kick a round out of the breach unfired. Typically either the first or the last round of the clip.
This is my fourth handgun. Finally I have one that works for me. Easy to work the slide, easy to load the magazine and easy to shoot well. The S&W .380 EZ I bought does not have the thumb safety, my choice, but does have the grip safety which works well with proper grip. Love the grip size and the trigger has a short take up to a crisp break.
In my opinion this is perhaps the worst new handgun I have ever encountered. It does not feel like a gun it feels like a plastic toy. Maybe that was the point. The trigger itself is made of plastic with a sharp plastic ridge in the middle where the injection mold halves met`;` a discernibly spongy feel precedes the wall with between 1/16 and 1/8 of an inch of creep before the trigger breaks.
The plastic grip safety adds to the confusion and can prevent a quick shot. The grip itself feels awkward`;` too thin for my admittedly small hands. Perhaps they had children under 10 when they designed this grip. At least a few times the trigger emitted a plasticy snap at the beginning of its pull. The color of red rust appeared on a white cloth when rubbed hard against the rails of the slide. This seems to be a hallmark of every gun I buy from SOSS. Perhaps their storage facility is not temperature or humidity controlled. Good luck.
Great weapon. Accurate out of the box. EZ to clean.
I had the privilege of purchasing one of these beautiful handguns soon as they were released. I have put a thousand rounds through it; not one jam. Beautiful, beautiful firearm. There is no thumb safety but the grip safety was a beautiful invention.
