Compared to other .380s on the market, its pretty big, BUT, it is slim. The ergonomics are really cool, well balanced. Trigger, meh, but then again, its a .380, not a target gun. The P22 probably, IMHO, had a better trigger.
I have not fired one yet, probably won't. Not my cup of tea, but could maybe be a real boon to purse carriers (women, weirdos like me, etc...  ) |
It does have a bit of a cheap feel to it. The P22 is tighter and rattles less when shaken, but it does feel good to hold. I've only put a handful of rounds through it so far and it does seem to shoot well. Time will tell though.
The P22 does have a better trigger feel, but the PK380 will probably improve with break in. I don't have a gauge, but I'd guess the 380 is a pound or two heavier than the P22. The P22 has around 800 rounds through it by now though and that is a pistol that got much better as the round count climbed.
When disassembled, they are very close to each other in build quality with the PK380 having a slight edge in construction. Assembled, the PK380 is a bit more loose than the P22 is though.
