"If we see something so entirely unexpected like this, or a guy walking into a restaurant with a gun, are we prepared to make a public spectacle of epic proportions? If you saw something awry, would you, without hesitation, do something like break through a door or window where you “weren’t allowed to go” to escape before something bad started? I’d postulate that our brains are so strongly wired not to do crazy stuff like that in public that it would be a big mental hurdle to overcome in a split second." [food for thought,bb]

I couldn't remember the model of the .380 I had (Mustang) and had to look it up.
Ran across this info on the "21' rule" while I was searching.

Colt Mustangs had the distinction of utilizing a locked-breech action which was fairly uncommon as most .380s were full-blowback operated

A friend of mine asked for my opinion on getting a gun for his wife for protection
He was thinking of getting a Makarov and I told him that the Makarov was crude and hard-edged, the recoil spring was particularly stiff
and his wife cried at the sight of roadkilled squirrels which gave rise to my questioning her ability to shoot another human
