A reliable spare magazine is one of the simplest, highest-value upgrades you can make to a concealed carry or compact defensive pistol. Proper materials, a durable spring, and a follower that feeds consistently are the difference between confidence on the range and failure when it matters most.

PROMAG S&W BODYGUARD

Build and materials that matter

This PROMAG S&W BODYGUARD replacement magazine is built for the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard chambered in 380 ACP. The body is constructed from heat-treated blued steel for dimensional stability and corrosion resistance under normal carry conditions. That steel body helps maintain feedlip geometry after repeated loading and unloading cycles — a simple but critical reliability factor.

Polymer components and spring quality

The follower, lockplate, and baseplate are molded from a DuPont Zytel-based black polymer. That choice gives a low-friction, impact-resistant interface that reduces follower hangups and tolerates daily carry. The spring is wound from chromesilicon wire and heat-treated for strength and longevity, which preserves consistent feed pressure and helps prevent failures to feed over time.

Why 380 ACP? Practical advantages

The 380 ACP is compact, controllable, and common in pocket pistols like the Bodyguard. While it sacrifices some ballistic energy versus larger calibers, it enables smaller, lighter pistols that are easier to carry daily. A dependable magazine for 380 ACP ensures consistent cycling with common defensive loads and reliable function from a compact platform.

Compatibility and pickup tips

This magazine is designed specifically for the SW Bodyguard pistol family and is produced under Promag’s parts lineup (Model: Various). When swapping magazines, inspect feedlip alignment and test function with inert ammunition before relying on it for carry. Keep spare mags in a dedicated pouch or holster to avoid dirt and deformation.

For a modest investment, the PROMAG S&W BODYGUARD offers heat-treated blued steel construction, DuPont Zytel polymer components, and a chromesilicon heat-treated spring — all focused on consistent feeding and long-term durability.
