The Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 delivers enhanced concealed carry performance with its threaded barrel configuration and integrated red dot optics compatibility. This striker-fired pistol addresses the demand for a compact .380 ACP platform that accommodates modern accessories without sacrificing reliability.
What Makes This Different
The Bodyguard 2.0 features a factory-threaded barrel specifically designed for suppressor compatibility, setting it apart from standard pocket pistols. The integrated optics mounting system accepts micro red dot sights directly without requiring aftermarket modifications. Smith & Wesson redesigned the trigger mechanism to deliver a consistent 5.5-pound pull weight, significantly improving over previous generations.

Field testing demonstrates reliable cycling with both standard and subsonic .380 ACP ammunition.
