Modern ballistics has made that a viable caliber for self defense purposes. However, it would make no sense to go with the .380acp if the 9mm alternative offers the same amount of recoil and control.

Solely to stir the pot (we need some excitement around here) and being a bit ignorant the day you see ole bawanna carrying a 380, he'll also be wearing a shirt that says sheep. I briefly considered getting a lightweight 9mm? 1911 due to all the heavy gun carrying talk around here and also in preparation for hand and wrist giving up the ghost at some point (although doing fine lately) but I let that go. When I can't carry and shoot my full size or commander 45's I'll just rely on other sheepdogs to watch over me.
I do belt carry the PM45 on days I'm feeling week or depending on my activities but no 380's for this misplaced Missouri dirt farmer.
