Taurus Curve .380

Not the prettiest looking but innovative and functional:

- curved frame (to contour the body)
- built in light and laser
- built in belt clip

I'm a little curious if the lack of a holster is a good idea or not. It comes with a trigger protector for pocket carry but I wonder if it's meant to be used when clipped to the belt. What do you think of this?

interesting difference in the two linked websites
one is definitely female oriented

another thing "bore axis sighting system"
is this AKA "looking down the top of the gun"?

Maybe I should have posted this in the Drunken Posting thread.  The guy who made the frame mold may have been at that time.

Interesting concept.
I'd like to try one, I don't think I would buy one.
Possible troubles I see:
1- It is tucked in the waistband pretty deep. Almost nothing to grab hold of when drawing. I predict some fumbling on the draw.
2- Belt clip retainer is loosey goosey. It might allow the gun to rotate such that there is no exposed butt to grab on to. Again more fumbling.
3- It appears like you can only grip the pistol with 2 fingers. I think it would be hard to press a DA only trigger with only 2  finger grip.

That's my WAG
