The RM380 is the first .380 pocket pistol from Remington in about a century. The little double-action-only is a point-and-shoot—no external safeties. Based on Rohrbaugh designs, it is America's oldest gun maker's attempt at a modern pocket pistol. Learn more in this video hosted by American Rifleman's Brian Sheetz.
