Smith & Wesson has announced the release of the Performance Center Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp.

When Smith & Wesson sought to redesign the original hammer-fired Bodyguard pistol, the goal was to deliver a new micro platform in a small and lightweight package. Key design enhancements of the Bodyguard 2.0 include improved ergonomics, increased capacity, and a crisp striker-fired trigger, all of which contributed to its recognition of various industry awards and its role in revolutionizing the micro-category. Now, staying committed to innovation, Smith & Wesson plans to build on the success of the Bodyguard 2.0 series, with the introduction of a Performance Center model.

The Performance Center Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp, chambered in 380 Auto, is built with a ported 3.1-inch barrel, has a 10+1 capacity using a flush-fit magazine, and 12+1 with the extended option. It ships with Ameriglo Protector Night Sights out of the box and is integrated with Carry Comp series features to enhance the overall shooting experience. The strategically designed Power-Port located at the end of the barrel, at the 12 o’clock position, diverts gas upwards, reducing felt recoil, which in turn improves overall control. The aggressive slide design includes increased serration coverage for easier manipulation, lightening cuts for weight reduction, and a sleek Performance Center Gray Armornite finish.

This micro pistol has an overall height of 4 inches, a width just under 1 inch, and weighs in at 11.8 oz. unloaded, making it ideal for an everyday carry option. A 10-round compliant variant is available, and users can also choose between manual thumb safety and non-thumb safety models.
