DIAMONDBACK DB380 Gen IV | .380 ACP | 2.8″ DB380NB

The Diamondback DB380 Gen IV is a micro-compact pistol chambered in .380 ACP with a 2.8-inch barrel, a nickel boron finished serrated slide, and a black polymer frame designed for low weight and discreet carry. It features a double-action-only striker-fired trigger with a short reset and ships with a 6+1 magazine; unloaded weight is approximately 8.8 ounces. For a compact optic solution under $1,000, consider a Trijicon RMR, a widely used micro red-dot that supports rapid sight acquisition on similarly sized pistols.

Common applications for this platform include everyday carry (EDC) and concealed carry due to its small footprint and light weight.
