M&P Bodyguard 380
The smallest M&P handgun, this pocket pistol comes with a Crimson Trace laser integrated right into its frame. At an astoundingly light 12.3 ounces (unloaded), it’s significantly lighter than even the Shield, all while still packing the punch of a modern centerfire caliber. Pair it with .380 ACP ammunition designed for short barrels to fully unlock its potential.

M&P9c
The double-stack, slightly larger cousin to the Shield, the M&P9c is the smallest M&P that will take the same magazines as the larger models, which is crucial for those who carry the M&P9c as backup to a larger M&P in the same caliber. It offers interchangeable backstraps and the same ergonomics of the larger models.

• Caliber: 9mm
• Barrel: 3.5 inches
• OA Length: 6.7 inches
• Weight: 21.7 ounces (empty)

M&P Bodyguard 38
Rated for +P loads, this modern adaptation of the classic snub-nosed revolver comes with a Crimson Trace laser built right into the right side of the frame. The single-piece, aluminum-alloy upper frame helps save weight, while the stainless steel barrel provides accuracy and durability. Designed for a snag-free draw from your pocket or other deep-concealment location, the hammer is internal and there’s nothing external to snag on clothing.

• Caliber: .38 Special
• Barrel: 1.9 inches
• OA Length: 6.6 inches
• Weight: 14.36 ounces (empty)
• Grip: Rubber
• Sights: Fixed, Crimson Trace laser

It provides the basic frame for the Chief’s Special, as well as the Centennial and the hammer-shrouded versions. Depicted here is the 10239 model, with a LaserMax unit that mounts under the barrel to augment your aiming with a bright dot downrange.

• Caliber: .38 Special
• Barrel: 1.875 inches

• Weight: 15.5 ounces (empty)
