but it has a "trench" instead of sights.
Doesn’t like jhp.
The P32 is small enough that I can pocket carry in some pants that my LCP is too bulky for. I would take a LCP over a P32 for the extra power of the 380... but sitting at a desk in work pants every day the P32 doesn't print as much as the LCP which is much better for my office enviroment.
I don't know what all the hubub about a micro 380 being hard to shoot is all about? If you have arthritus or very weak hands maybe but I can't imagine the LCP 380 recoil being much of a challenge for most... especially with a little practice.
The P32 is in the top row and grey. The LCP is next to it in black. They look very close in size when side by side but the P32 is noticable less bulky if you pick up both of them.
I gotta agree, when it comes to inexperienced new shooters looking for a carry gun, especially women, the brutish sales clerk will push for either a .38 snub or an LCP. The snub will be "too bulky", so the LCP it is. Off to the range for a test drive and a few shots later and it's being returned with the explanation it's "too much" but the guy working the counter will say it's either learn to live with that or get a rape whistle and a stun gun because anything less than .380 is only gonna piss the attacker off more.The LCP is very hard for some to shoot. I hated it the first time I shot one. Just a very unpleasant affair. And I am not recoil sensitive. Yes, I over came it with thousands of round shooting them, But even now when I go back from shooting others, the recoil and slap of the LCP is significant compared to others. Many folks are now looking for a milder alternative.
And any small 380 is NOT for everyone.

ppu hollow point work fine in my two. has to do with overall length so no rimlock. no advantage to them though they dont expand from what I've seen.Recoils less. Doesn’t like jhp. Hold open on last round.
Well placed .32, or bad breath distances, will do the job as well.
I don't get it either. I could shoot my LCP all day except my fingers start to hurt from loading the mags. I've even let my mother, who's shot about 2 guns in her life, put a few mags through my LCP and she loved it.
Back in 1968 importation of the small 22LR, 25acp and 32acp semis was not banned because they were cheap, unreliable or ineffective.
All of the little blowback .380s are snappy as all get out.
Still snappy as all get out.P3AT is locked-breech.
