    nice man. I got a set in 2024 also. Not as nice specs as yours but can still see in the dark ha. I’ve been hearing a lot about the night shoots at university rifle. You do any night shooting yet?

    I am not sure what university rifle is. I have been doing night shoots at my range up at Pemi, my buddy organizes them. We had one last night, it was freezing but totally worth getting stick time under nods

    Found plenty of 9mm available at Cabelas, but no bargains. Picked up this box of 250 rounds for $100. IMG_4351.jpg

    My last purchase was 1k rounds of 9mm for 300. Nothing super quality. Just something to use at the range. Should last me a few years lol. I need to bring my revolver somewhere. I thought cleaning it fixed it, but it still jams after 3 or 4 shots

    I suggest you contact Smith & Wesson customer service. Their gunsmiths are very good.

    Purchased a S&W Bodyguard 2.0. It’s more like a
    baby Shield than being like the original Bodyguard. It’s just slightly larger than the original.

    Fits in the same pocket holster as the original. IMG_4397.jpg

    I’m looking forward to a range session with it. IMG_4399.jpg

    It has the same action as all its big brother M&P’s: striker fired.

    I guess it's a MIM part,so there is a small raised portion on the feed ramp...some have it and some were polished..i guess they caught it at some point of production.Its the lower ramp,not the barrel

    Ran first 100 rounds through the Bodyguard 2.0 at my club’s 50 foot indoor range. Club rules require targets to be set at the full 50 feet.
    The little pistol did pretty well. The flyers are all me. IMG_4408.jpg IMG_4405.jpg

    Pretty respectable for a short little .380 at that range.

    Thanks.
    The pistol has decent sights and the trigger is pretty good. The range has excellent lighting, which also helps. The shooting pace was mostly slow and deliberate, but there were a few magazines where the front sight was coming back into position in a nice, crisp rhythm, so I let it rip a bit.

    It’s very light and is a little snappy, but not too bad. Fairly comfortable to shoot.
