Ruger LCP


I finally got to shoot my new LCP .380 a couple weekends ago. Nice little gun. Very accurate, and I am not a great shot. I sold my Beretta Tomcat .32 as a trade for the Ruger, and I am glad I did. It's much more thin. I can put it in my back pocket (in a little Uncle Mike's size 1 pocket holster) and I almost forget it's there. The Beretta was a tad bigger, heavier, much wider, less powerful, and you never knew where the round was going to hit. The Ruger is a lot more consistent. It came with a magazine with the grip extension that adds more room to grip at the bottom.

Overall, I am very impressed with this pocket pistol. It will get a lot of carry time this summer. Priced reasonably around $319 at Fin/Feather/Fur.
