They are on the shelves. I got to look at one in Michigan.
I just bought one here where I live and they only had the one but sure they will get more soon. Shoals Outdoor Sports, Muscle Shoals, ALQuote:

The local shop I use has one in stock for $499 so they are probably much easier to find now than they were when this thread started back in July.
Still HARD to find down here in Sunshine State. At two gun shows, over the last month, only saw one and they were stuck on LIST for it ($575) Not happening for me at that price!
Still hear a lot of problems being reported on forums for breakdown bolt comes out, trigger issue...hopefully S&W has/will address these.

My wife purchased a BG .380 about a month ago and has a few hundred rounds through it. She's not had any issues with the trigger or the bolt that you mentioned. I did read some articles that indicated that some of the early BG's did have trigger issues. For what it's worth (and it's not statistically significant) but the range/shop where my wife bought her BG has sold about a dozen or more of that model and they've not had a single one come back for repair or warranty work.Quote:

Speaking of which, spare mags are difficult to find. My wife has a few on back-order.
How many is "a lot"? :watching:Quote:
