Colt mustang
Anyone carry the little 380 Colt mustang?
Do you still carry it cocked & Locked like a 1911 even though it doesn't have the 1911's added grip safety?
What type holster do you recommend?
If you ever had to use a 380 in self defense... where would you aim?First shot center mass?

I can't comment on how to safely carry a Colt Mustang, but I would like to comment on shooting.

My initial reaction is to shoot center mass and continue shooting there until the "target" falls...

absolutely i do, but mine has been sort or modified with a lapped barrel, fitteed front, adjustable sights decent grips etc. etc. so its not a fair comparison to a stock one if you want a stock one that works well go get a new sig 238

Shoot center mass until you can hit the head
every shot during rapid fire at 7 yards.

Carry it cocked and locked.

The Colt Mustang is small enough to use an OWB holster imo.

Holsters are very much a personal preference thing.
