The ProMag SMI21 extends the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 380's standard capacity with a reliable 10-round configuration. This blued steel magazine addresses the common need for additional rounds without compromising the pistol's compact profile.
What Makes This Different
The SMI21 features an extended baseplate that provides improved grip purchase while maintaining the Bodyguard's concealability. Unlike flush-fit alternatives, this magazine offers 4 additional rounds over the factory 6-round capacity. The blued steel construction resists corrosion better than standard finishes, ensuring consistent feeding through extended use.
