Otis Nice Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I don't like them, but that's more of a personal preference in handling them. Not enough shoosting experience to comment there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Friend has one. I dislike 380 first off and second the trigger pull is awful. Other than that its tiny, tuckable and useable. She does carry it, but in a purse so that doesnt help. After shooting it I personally dislike them and wouldn't recommend it.

Mojoe Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I like the LCP better, after light modding on the feed angle. With the DB, a big turn off for me was the non spring assisted mag release. It just seemed hung up. It's a personal preferance really. I gave my LCP to a family member, because I was not 100% pleased. These are a purpose build type weapon. I really don't think somoene is going to get all they want out of one, without giving up something another one might have for a feature or function. These noisy cricket size guns are just a tough thing to find the perfect one, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small, comfortable for a small gun, reliable as all get out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackbar00 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I carry my DB9 often. Every bit as small as any .380 and its a 9mm. Trigger pull is just the same as all the other .380. (Bodyguard, DB.380, LCP, etc.). Figured if you can live with the trigger pull, why not carry a 9mm. That being said, I really want to try a M&P shield. Hear the trigger pull is awesome.

Otis Nice Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Check this little guy out: CLICKY :thumbup: KillJoy A few good points it seems but... Recoil was definitely noticeable even with standard velocity 9mm loads. A friend who was shooting with me and I both found that the grips which are smooth except for the Rohrbaugh logo which is textured had a tendency to shift in the hand when firing quickly. Pass. Rohrbaugh recommends replacing this spring every 500 rounds. Pass. $1,300? Pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Just read an article on the DB in "The Complete Book of Autopistols". Decent reviews, but had a FTF in the test. All in all they seemed to like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
