Diamondback Firearms Gen 4 .380 ACP 2" Barrel 6+1 Capacity Black - DB0100E002

The Diamondback Firearms Gen 4 .380 ACP is a compact, lightweight pistol built for shooters who prioritize concealability and everyday carry without sacrificing reliability. At just 8.8 ounces unloaded and measuring 5.24 inches in length, this Gen 4 model delivers the slim profile and short barrel (2 inches) that make .380 ACP pistols popular for backup, off-duty, and personal defense roles. The black oxide slide pairs with a black polymer grip for a clean, professional look, while the all-steel construction—416 stainless steel slide and 410 stainless steel barrel—ensures durability in a package that won't weigh you down.

Built on a double-action-only trigger system with a short reset and 5.5-pound trigger pull, the Gen 4 points naturally and cycles predictably. The 3-dot Glock-compatible sight system is easy to acquire in low light, and the 4.51-inch sight radius—unusual for a compact .380—gives you more sight-line distance than many subcompacts, which can help with faster, more precise sight picture acquisition. The partially captured recoil system handles the mild .380 round efficiently, and the compact magazine holds 6 rounds plus 1 in the chamber for a total capacity of 6+1.

This is a straightforward, no-frills carry gun for someone who values simplicity and shootability in a very portable package. Whether you're looking for a summer pocket pistol, a backup for your duty gun, or a reliable nightstand option, the Gen 4 .380 ACP delivers dependable performance in a size that disappears in your holster or waistband.
