That Remington, if its in good condition, would be quite a prize. Not only in a collector's sense but as a practical carry piece if 380 is powerful enough for you.

.45 Colt, Thanks! that will help alot, the gun is fine as the inner workings go, but the finish is a little on the rough side, I might get it re blued.

RIKA, the 380 is a mouse gun to me, this is for my wife as a bed side gun, but a question just came to mind, what would be a good defence round in 380? :shrugs:

I've carried both Hydrashoks and Corbons in my 380 cal. Mauser HsC.
