This is an interesting piece. It is the trendy new combination of polymer lower and steel upper, and fully bulky enough to be a .40 or .45 . . . but it's a .380. The ergonomics are good aside from the casting flash that cuts your hand, and the lack of a finger hold for your pinky. Other than those minor issues, I'ts a pretty neat little gun.
This is a clean example, with almost-no wear from handling or firing. The blue on the high points is still dark. The casting flash is still pronounced. The only real blemish on this example is in the checkering on the sides of the grip, and that is pretty minor
Euro-style heel release for the magazine, which is wide enough to be a double-stack but holds only 6 rounds
Wear? Where! The chamber is factory-textured, as finely-finished as the casting of the lower half (i.e., pretty rough), not worn from use. The breech has some brass on it, but the ejector looks new. The Barrel has a lack of streaking/rubbing as well. This was fired, but maybe a box or two only.
Grendel. I'd only heard of it as a cartridge (6.5 Grendel, which I like) or as a medieval monster (which I don't). Apparently it's a brand of guns, also. I'm a big fan of cheap guns (which this is), because poor people need the means of self-defense arguably more than rich folk.
