My bet is it's a combination of issues, differing from person-to-person and firearm.
The little .380's of today are too small for a lot of hands to properly grip. This, combimed with the fact that the .380 round is inherently a little "snappy", and you tend to get a lot of limp wrist caused issues.
My Bersa Thunder has not had a single problem, not matter who shoots it, but I did find my accuracy improved when I added the extended magazine butt plate. It gives my little finger something to hold onto, and I think this helps improve my control.
On the other hand, I had a little Taurus TCP .380 that I could not get to feed more than 3 consecutive rounds, no matter who shot it, or which ammo was used.
