Short answer: Yes. Yes it does.
Longer answer: Well, you will have to watch the video for that. The author compares three pistols with varying barrel lengths: the 2.75" Kimber Micro .380, the 3.25" Glock G42, and the 3.81" Beretta 84, shooting Federal 95 grain FMJ and Hornady 90 grain Critical Defense. The half inch difference between the Kimber and the Glock was negligible but the longer barrel of the Beretta made a significant difference versus the Kimber and Glock: 60 fps faster with the Winchester ammo and 80 and 60 fps faster than the Kimber and Glock, respectively, using the Hornady.
