This is one of 3 .380s that I would trust to carry.
I don't own a Colt, but I've heard decent things...I'm a Colt fan boy so I'll give them a nod.
I've put close to 1k rounds through my Kahr P380 and NEVER had a malfunction with the gun. Quality is pricey though, to get into a Kahr or an older sig will cost the same coin as a new glock...
If it costs $200 new....well...nm. I digress.
To answer the question of handling a .380, I think the fault can be the shooter, and it is exacerbated by poor quality firearms. I can shoot my Kahr at all angles and it will perform fine. Where I'm wowed is that my relatively inexperienced fiance can get the same result. Get a good platform and drill the fundamentals of grip, trigger press, trigger reset. (not to exclude sight picture, but that shouldn't effect malfunctions.
On gun talk a few months back they went into how compact pocket autos are advanced guns, and can be tricky.
