    So, a .32 ACP versus a .380 ACP?

    I would say that the .380 ACP is almost always the winner, provided it isn't a junk gun like a Jimenez or a Bryco or something like that.

    As for reliability, as Higgy Baby noted, just buy 100 rounds of one brand of ammo you're interested in using, and run that through the gun. If you have a malfunction (fail to eject, fail to feed, etc.) within 100 rounds, disqualify that brand and move on to the next one. If 100 rounds of the ammo function flawlessly, it's a contender for your carry ammunition.

    It's worth noting that .380 ACP is probably the least powerful cartridge you'll want to carry in a semi-auto unless you are particularly recoil-sensitive or you otherwise have a good reason. A .32 ACP cartridge is certainly better than .25 ACP or .22LR, but not by much, at least when you can get an excellent .380 ACP or 9mm Luger firearm that will provide much better overall performance.

    For what? I wouldn't pocket carry an LC380...but then again I wouldn't want to walk the streets of Detroit with a .32 ACP.

    Context, people. Context!

    I would carry the 380 over the 32 any day. If cost is the issue- look into the SCCY 9mm.

    Which fits your hand better? Thats a major factor. The lc380 is a much bigger gun. The P-32 is probably the more reliable gun.
