Carry Smarter: Inside the New S&W Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp Lineup
Smith & Wesson has redefined the micro-compact handgun experience with the new Performance Center Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp series. Built for concealed carry, this release combines recoil management, sleek design, and premium features. It delivers comfort, control, and confidence for everyday users.
A New Standard in Micro Carry Pistols
The Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp focuses on enhanced performance without losing concealability. At its core is the Carry Comp Power Port™. This port redirects gas upward, which reduces recoil and muzzle flip. Because of this feature, you get faster follow-up shots and better accuracy, especially during rapid fire.
Additionally, the slim, textured grip and improved ergonomics offer excellent control and a secure hold. The aggressive slide design provides more surface area. As a result, racking the slide is easier—whether you’re under stress or wearing gloves.
Enhanced Features Across the Lineup
Each Carry Comp model is chambered in .380 Auto. They all include a 3.1-inch ported stainless steel barrel with an Armornite® finish. The stainless steel slides feature a Performance Center Grey Armornite® finish. This adds durability and gives the pistol a modern look.
Furthermore, the flat-face trigger offers a crisp, clean break. Ameriglo® night sights come standard. These sights pair a LumiGreen front sight with a blacked-out square notch rear sight. As a result, you’ll get quick target acquisition in both daylight and low-light conditions.
