This video by Nutnfancy critically examines the .380 ACP cartridge, arguing that it is generally an underpowered and often poor choice for defensive concealed carry compared to 9mm options. While acknowledging its utility in specific niche applications requiring extreme concealability, the reviewer highlights that for a slight increase in weight, sub-compact 9mm pistols offer superior ergonomics, power, firepower, and economy. The video recommends careful consideration before selecting a .380 as a primary self-defense firearm, suggesting that it might be a surprisingly underperforming and expensive handicap for many users.
