I bought a Lady Smith pistol for my wife in 380 it was a semi-auto compact stainless pistol. After buying 4 different brands of ammo for it and it jamming at least every time I shot it , it was quickly sold. I wouldn't buy a POS S&W again if my life depended on it.
if you want the closest you will ever get to a completely reliable gun get a revolver and use federal factory ammo.
