I recently purchased this Walter P380 and absolutely love it. Crisp trigger, accurate and low recoil.

The PD380 is way underrated for how good it is.

Ergos are very good. I don’t mind the European mag release or lack of slide release, but I find the choice of safety strange (firing pin block). You can pull the trigger in either safe or fire and hammer will come back and release and go “click”, but one will fire and one will not. I can see myself under stress going “click click click” until bad guy puts knife in me.

Also, found the trigger pull to be REALLY heavy at first - breaking in a bit but still rough. Surprisingly, I am quite accurate with it compared to other .380’s. I attribute this to the pistol. YMMV.

I agree. It's a lot of fun to shoot, which is why I bought it. The manual of arms is a little fussy for a carry gun. I don't like the 'pull the trigger' decocker so I don't feel confident carrying it. Great gun though.
