The Diamondback DB380 Gen4 delivers reliable concealed carry performance in an ultra-compact package. This micro pistol combines a 2-inch stainless steel barrel with a lightweight polymer frame for consistent accuracy and all-day comfort.
What Makes This Different
The Gen4 upgrades include an enhanced beavertail grip design that reduces recoil bite and improves control during rapid fire. The black oxide serrated slide features laser-etched Diamondback logo and provides secure manipulation even with wet hands. Unlike basic pocket pistols, this model incorporates a stainless steel barrel rated for +P ammunition and maintains sub-3-inch groups at 7 yards.

Field testing demonstrates consistent cycling with both ball and hollow-point ammunition across temperature ranges from 20°F to 110°F. The trigger breaks cleanly at approximately 6 pounds with minimal overtravel. Law enforcement agencies have adopted this platform for backup duty applications, while competitive shooters appreciate the consistent lockup and barrel-to-slide fit that maintains accuracy through extended shooting sessions.
