Wow! The idea of needing to defend yourself from a trigger pull makes me even happier with my choice of a Security 380. I never pocket carry so I my gun spares me injury.

If it is the same size, you can substitute. However, that might be problematic. The tension of the two springs is different. 380 generally has a lighter tension than 9mm. I went from a Sec 9 Compact to a Sec 380 because I could no longer reliably rack the 9mm. Now I can rack the 380 with 2...
