I don't think you are going to get much argument that the LCP in whatever iteration, is a pretty neat little pocket pistol. I've always wanted a small pistol like the LCP. Every time I went to the range and a buddy pulled out an LCP, a S&W bodyguard or what have you, I always longed for one. Now, considering they are in the $400 range, it's not like I would have to sweat too much to pick one up, but I didn't. Why?
I didn't because for me, a pocket gun should be able to go in the pocket in a pinch without a holster. I said in a pinch. None of those little .380's would ever fit that role. A DA revolver would, but they were too bulky for me in the summer months. But I still needed something small & light. I ended up getting a little G42, and I'll never regret that decision. I carry it IWB and it does everything I could want when light and thin is the call of the day.
But that was before the RM380 came out. Now here's a little .380 belly gun that's a true DA. The one I handled would easily fit the role of a pocket gun that you could throw into an empty blazer pocket sans holster. Again, I'm not advocating you do that, but it's nice knowing you can in a pinch. Moreover, i have read nothing but good things about the pistol short of those who still feel massive sights on a belly gun are needed.
Anyway, give it a look I say. It's a nice little pistol and I'll probably get one one day even though I have my G42. Here's a review that talks a little on the trigger if you are interested:
