Smith & Wesson’s Performance Center has taken the popular Bodyguard platform and elevated it with a built-in compensator, refined trigger, and premium features that set this model apart from standard .380 pistols. The result is a highly controllable, accurate, and reliable concealed carry handgun that is easy to shoot even for those sensitive to recoil.
Performance Center Carry Comp Technology
The standout feature of this Bodyguard 2.0 is the factory-ported barrel. The integrated compensator vents gases upward to counteract muzzle rise, allowing for faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy during rapid fire. This Carry Comp system makes the pistol noticeably softer shooting than traditional .380 models, giving shooters better control without the need for aftermarket modifications. The 3.1-inch barrel length strikes an ideal balance between concealability and ballistic performance, delivering reliable expansion from quality defensive ammunition.
