I picked it up this evening. I field stripped it and gave it a quick clean.

Even though it's small, it feels good in the hand. I loaded up a few snap caps and dry fired it. The DA trigger pull felt long with a predictable break. It wasn't light or hard, it felt just right.

I'm going to the range on Friday. I'll find out how snappy the LCP is. How bad can it be? I've survived .357 Mag out of a KLCR.

On a side note...

I've noticed here and elsewhere on the net that pictures of firearms are staged with a folding knife. I don't have a folding "tactical" knife, so I did the best I could...

I give to you the Ruger LCP with my tactical butter knife. :rofl:

Sweet knife. Is that the new SOG 154CM X-Butter?

I love my LCP. I think the recoil is exaggerated, I can do 100-200 rounds no problem. Around 200 it doesn't especially feel pleasant, though.

I carry 102-grain Remington Golden Sabers. Good round, heavy for caliber, narrower hollowpoint for good feeding.

Mine is 700 rounds, 1 failure. Failure was a weird one. Casing of a fired PMC Bronze .380 stuck in the barrel after firing. I do NOT blame the gun for this. I was stress testing it. Took it three range trips with zero cleaning and zero lube to do that, and not cleaning/lubing is NEVER something you should do with a pocket pistol.

Congrats on the new LCP. That fixed blade might be a little long for carry in some jurisdictions.

 

[GrandPaGuns]

Sweet carry. I don't know if it would work for me. I have big hands. I can see why you like it though. Sweet knife!

 

[efman]

congrats,I love my lcp. carrying it is a lot easier then carrying my full size glock. and between the 2 I hardly ever go out unarmed.

 

[crsuribe]

Love the knife dude!

And grats on the pistol.

Where can I get a knife like that? I have been thinking about a LCP myself.

 

[cloudbuster]

Those knives are awesome. I have a Cutco in the same design. Spreader, spatula, sandwich cutter, they do it all. When I'm in the field and need a serious, tactical sandwich knife, that's what I carry.

I've heard that's the knife the Navy Seals used when fixing up some celebratory ham sandwiches after downing bin Laden.

I can't wait to read the range report.I'm carrying a kel-tec p32 but am considering a Ruger LCP next.Get yourself a real pocket knife and loose the sissy cream cheese spreader.tom.:supergrin:

Awesome bullet nipples!

I picked up an LCP about 2 months ago. I am very pleased with it. The compact size and very light weight means it goes with me just about everywhere. I can almost forget it's tucked into a pocket of my shorts. Yeah, it's a bit whippy on the range, but I didn't get it for punching paper targets. Enjoy yours.

 

[09crue]

congrats on the new lcp,best .380 pocket pistol available IMO...

 

[WarEagle32]

I love my LCP too! I got it right when they came out and never plan on getting rid of it. I find it is more dependable without the pinky extension on the magazine. That's just my experience.

As you can probably tell from the thread I started the LCP is on my Very Short List of guns to get.
Glad to hear they work well. Now I just need to get off my butt and put my 92F Compact up for sale.:crying:
Then I can get the LCP and see about a full size Ruger semi for HD with the funds I get from the sale of the Beretta.

Congrats on the LCP!!
I really like your knife, too!:supergrin:


A bunch of my shooting friends have bought the LCP. I tried it. I really wanted to like it.
I've got "Ham Hands", and my fingers are just too long for that little pistol, plus, I can only get my middle finger on the gripframe.
My ring finger and little finger are just clutched under this dimunitive little pistol.

Oh well. That's why they make chocolate, vanilla, strawberry. . . and chocolate chip cookie dough!!!!
There's something for everyone!!

Just save a bit longer. You'll regret giving up a 92 Compact

Too funny. One followed me home a week ago. I couldn't pass up a lightly used model with CrimsonTrace already installed.
