I took my new Ruger LCP 380 with crimson trace laser to the range yesterday. I found the trigger pull hard and rough. The recoil was much more than my Glocks (19, 34) and difficult to hold with two hands. The CT Laser beam didn't work consistently--maybe due to the small grip. My SIG P238 is a much better carry weapon and much lighter recoil. I'd return the LCP if I could. Also not having a safety is another negative for CC. >>>>>Impact Guns note: We will buy your used Ruger LCP for cash or trade. Please contact us for details.

A good gun but i got large hands and was hard for me to operate the slide because so. But the grip was great and the aims "pointability"

early review with only 50 rounds of walmart federal and a few Hornady critical defense. wish i could afford more ammo. functioned flawlessly accuracy is amazing! carry it everyday while delivering pizza and would hardly notice it throughout the day. better have small hands like i do.

The LCP380 Rocks!!!!

By Buckshot1911 from North West Florida

This pistol is awesome, the perfect light-weight carry guy. Took mine to the range to break it in, put 150 rounds down range without a single issue, perfect function, and smooth firing with very managable recoil. Very long trigger pull which takes some getting used to, overall im very pleased with this ruger ! even though the sights are super small.

This is just an excellent little pistol. I do not actually own one, but have borrowed one and have put about 300 rounds through it. Very accurate for such a small gun, and conceals well in a pocket holster. Ruger makes an excellent product!

Its small, its light, and its in .380. With the exception of that last part thats what I love about the LCP, true ruger could have made it a 9mm but with that caliber comes the need for more material to reinforce and with that addition of material brings a larger size, so kudos to Ruger for keeping the LCP in .380. Some of you may ask why its a "must have" for anyone who ccws. There are times when I must part with my standard CCW a tweener sub/normal compact sized 9mm and dress in clothing that isn't CCW friendly. My normal carry would print in a heartbeat in certain clothing (IE dress clothing) so I switch over to my LCP in a wallet holster. Granted it takes a bit of time to find dress pants with a large/wide enough front pocket to allow me to front pocket carry but after I did the rest is pure comfort. My LCP sits inside a wallet holster in my front pocket, I have no worries of it printing for if the holster prints it just looks like I have a large wallet in my pocket. I can walk around and forget that I even have a CCW on me because I'm not worrying about printing and the weight of the LCP is practically nothing. Now granted some people will use the LCP as a B.U.G and for that it works excellent. Again the little .380 is a bit of a hurdle to get past but once you accept its limitations and find a good load many of those worries go away. But sadly the LCP isn't without issues, many people will tell you about the design being copied from Keltec. Having shot both a Keltec P3AT and the Ruger LCP right out of the box I can say the Ruger just feels a tad bit more "polished" when it comes to shooting right out of the box. They are both great guns, but the ruger just looks and feels a bit more polished out of the box and I'm quite happy with it. The big issue I've had is that certain brands of ammo have caused the LCP to be a jam factory, yet others will run as smooth as silk with it. If you purchase a LCP make sure you run a 100 rounds through it before you start CCW'ing it just to workout any issues it may have and to nail down what carry ammo you should use. Overall I rated it a 4 as its a damn good gun and at a good price, but there are competitors that do the same for less or around the same price. Also its availability in the past (ruger being caught off guard on how popular its been) does knock the rating down slightly.

I just purchased one of these & this is easily the best pocket 380 out right now. It is very small & easily concealable. Ruger also has a excellent customer service record as well which is another major selling point in my opinion. I find the stock checkering to bite into the hand a little too much. Everyone with a ruger lcp (or other small guns) should check out traction grips. I ordered a pair of those for the lcp & the gun feels much better in hand & control is better as well.

I am very happy with my LCP with the Crimson Trace laser. I only wish I had found it here at this lower price before I purchased it for more from another source.

By Mad Dog from Northern California

The gun makes an excellent choice for a conceal weapon. The gun is small and light weight. Some of the best features of the gun are accuracy and powerfulness. When the gun is carried at plain view most people would not notice it because of its small size. I recommend considering this gun on your next purchase.

I just bought one last week. It fits in my pocket easily and is surprisingly accurate.
