The effective range of the .380 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) cartridge typically falls between 25 to 50 yards for self-defense purposes. In practice, most shooters find it effective at closer distances, usually within 7 to 15 yards, where its stopping power and accuracy are most reliable. The .380 ACP is primarily designed for short-range use, making it a popular choice for compact and concealed carry firearms.

I personally don't make 380 handguns, never have, BUT, the 380ACP round was very popular in the early to mid 20th Century, especially in South America and Europe, where citizens were limited to handguns of .380ACP (or 9mm short), or smaller. There has been a resurgence of the .380ACP's popularity in the early 2000's. Although it is not as powerful as a 9mm Parabellum, it is still adequate for personal protection. These weapons can be made very small and lightweight, which appeal to some owners. Due to this popularity, almost all gun manufacturers have designed modern pistols that fire the .380ACP.
