pete, as jessie stated i've been at home cuddling with my new LCP. fit and function seem flawless. between grandkids and rain i haven't been able to get out with it yet. i'm hoping to soon if it dries up enough where i go shoot. i really like the size and feel of it. already got a wallet holster for it and have been carrying it in that around the house to get used to it. lee

Just picked up one of these 3 days ago. Havent shot it yet, but i scrubbed all the cosmoline off of her today. Really like the size and feel of it, sights are a little small though. Need to find a decent IWB holster for it! Cant wait to put some rounds through it!

sights????? your's has sights? is that what those little bumps are? with my bifocals on, if i tilt my head back just right i can sort of see them. for a pocket .380 i don't think sights are even necessary. i'm thinking of a bright orange strip down the middle of the slide. lee

I carry S&B FMJ Ball in my LCP. I figure that with such a short barrel it won't expand and I'd rather have the reliability and penetration of FMJ.

I have had mine for well over a year now. I find it accurate for its intended purpose and easy to CCW. As others I have said, though, it is not a fun gun to shoot. While I carry it often, I probably only practice with it the bare minimum to maintain some level of proficiency. I carry with Gold Dots.

Just an update - I've already put this info on its own thread here earlier this week, but thought that it might be good to include it on this thread.
I tried some Buffalo Bore 95-grain FMJ flat-point .380 "+P" through the LCP. I now have an extra-power recoil spring on order from Wolff and so I thought I'd give it a try in the little locked-breech gun. (Note that there is no such thing as SAAMI-spec ".380 +P" - these rounds are just overpressure, pure and simple, and Ruger would advise against their use.)
They shot fine. I only shot five. Here are the velocities in FPS (5950'>sea level, 41°F, c. 15% humidity):
1066
1075
1112
1074
1133
M 1092
ES 66.98
SD 29.01
That's really cooking with gas - for any .380, but particularly out of a sub-3" tube. The rounds were decently accurate at ten yards - they'd all group into a heart at that range - but they were not the most accurate round from this gun. I think that the one to the upper left is my fault - they were really snappy and pretty darned unpleasant to shoot.
(Knife point is at point of aim)
It was really snappy and kicked noticeably hard. Primers looked fine (like that means anything) and gun functioned fine. Brass was thrown back about 20 feet. I stripped the gun afterward and examined every stress point I could think of under bright NM sunlight through a magnifying visor. I could find nothing at all out of the ordinary.
Apologies for my ****** cell-phone pictures - I didn't think to bring the camera.

Great post Erich, very useful data, I have one question - "ten yards," thirty feet? Please excuse the ignorance of my question.
When/why would I want to use my lcp for its intended purpose at such a distance?
Maybe it is just me, but most of my practice is at 15 feet and if I am shooting my lcp I move the target up to 9 or 10 feet. Please feel free to advise on a better plan.

I carry my LCP in my front pants pocket for about 2 years now. I am very comfortable with it and I have medium sized hands. I carry it with the little extended floor plate on the magazine. My Desantis pocket holster is very nice dont get me wrong, but I will change over to a IWB, as soon as I get a chance. Nothing wrong with the Desantis, I think I would feel more secure with a IWB. I am 100% satisfied with all aspects of the LCP. Hope you enjoy your also. 26

Ken, ten yards is as close in as we go at the lovely Albuquerque City Shooting Range Park. I'm pleased to see the LCP shoots decently well at such a distance, as I suspect it's beyond where I'm likely to use an LCP.

I don't have one bad thing to say about mine. I shoot and carry Winchester White Box ammo in it. I sometimes carry it OWB
Sometimes IWB
but mostly in my front pocket.
It isn't a target pistol, and I'm not that great a handgunner either, but I'm pleased with it for concealed carry.

I've had mine about 2 years now, and it can go anywhere, no doubt. If the elastic is good in your PJ's, and you've got pockets, it even works there!
I outfitted mine with the Pearce mag ext., CT laser, and an 11 lb. recoil spring from Wolff, which seems to be the best weight to run the BB 100 gr. that Erich referenced above. Recoil is noticeably harder with either the stock 9lb or the heavier Wolff springs. I also polished up the feed ramp with some 600 grit, and then the Dremel felt wheel, and I have had no FTF's with any ammo I've tried.
I would have to say I think it is the least pleasant gun I own in terms of shooting comfort. But, it fills a niche- when I am meeting clients or otherwise keeping a low CCW profile (or in my "loungwear"), it cannot be beat!

Considering getting one also - would it be worth to get the factory laser grips?

From my experience, I have found that, while the "mouse guns" are quite popular, they are also awkward/uncomfortable/punishing to shoot. So much so that most people simply will not train with them enough to become truly proficient with them. I can't tell you how many guys I've seen show up to take a training class who who say they normally carry some variety of "mouse gun" for daily carry, but then they get out their Glock, XD, or S&W revolver to take the class with. You ask them why, and they usually say something like, "I don't think I could spend a day training with that little gun".
While a number of skills can cross-over well from one pistol platform to the next, these type of guns are so small that they simply can't be handled and manipulated with the same dexterity-poor skills that one can deploy a larger handgun with. If we haven't addressed this size issue and the unique handling and presentation techniques that go with it in our training, it's not realistic to think we will be able to utilize the gun efficiently when we need it most. YMMV.

I understand what you are saying, but I also think of these little guns as similar to the donut size (or temporary) spare tires that come on some model cars. They aren't intended to be used for anything but an emergency. Guns like an LCP aren't intended as range guns, or for extended firing sessions like in training, etc. I see their purpose as only an emergency last resort, and while they do need to be fired enough to insure reliability and familiarity of operation, I can't imagine using one for anything else. Such is not their purpose, just like the donut spare tire.

I bought one with a Lasermax on it. It was only 50 bucks more for one with the laser than one without, so I figured why not. I pocket carry it in a Desantis Super Fly, sans the fly.
Installed the Hogue handall for the LC0, made it much easier for me to shoot. Liked it so well, I bought the LCPZ

I do agree with your post, Ken. That said, my point wasn't that these little guns can't be an effective "spare tire" in an emergency situation when we suffer a flat at just the wrong time. Rather, the point was that many folks are carrying these things around as a primary weapon and only practicing with it a very small amount due to the fact that they are uncomfortable and even difficult to train with to any large degree. It would be like installing 4 donut spares on your vehicle with the idea of using them as though they are full-sized, full-capacity tires, IMHO.
Now I am not saying that these little guns are useless and should never be used. While they are most certainly not something I believe should be carried a large percentage of the time as a primary weapon, there are times when they might be about the only type of handgun that could fill that role. You could conceivably conceal a LCP or P3AT (or other similar sized gun) while wearing nothing but a pair of swimming trunks and some flip-flops. There is no doubt that if ultimate concealment is your requirement, it's hard to beat the flat, compact design of some of these pocket pistols. I certainly wouldn't try to argue that point. However, that same attribute also changes the dynamics of the training one must utilize in order to learn how to "run the gun" efficiently. As has already been pointed out, it takes more dexterity to properly manipulate these smaller pistols than it does a larger gun.
It's just my opinion, but of the people I've met that actually carry these little guns, 95% of them do it purely as a matter of convenience - not out of necessity. And I've yet to meet anyone who actually trains to the point of being "fight ready" with one of these things.
I only hope the people who are still choosing to carry these guns and bet their lives on them each day will take the time to train with them as if their life depends on it - because it does.

I have had My LCP for a year or more & Carry it more often than any of My other "Carry" Guns for it's size it is plenty accurate & has always been reliable,I carry the Federal Hydra Shock's but would have went with Hornady's Critical Defense if it would have been available when I was trying out diferent ammo every place was sold out.

A bit of an update on the LCP. I've run about another 150 rounds through the the lil' thing and discovered that it was not happy with steel case ammo. Was trying out Monarch 95 grn FMJ, 95 grn FMJ steel case and 95 grn FMJ steel case. The steel case seemed to hang up on the feed ramp. Quick pop on the back of the slide and all was well. It happened about 5 times out of 1 box (50 rounds). Everything else cycled fine. Decided 95 grn FMJ is the way to go.
Picked up an IWB holster and have been tying it out this weekend.
It now travels almost everywhere I go now and usually close by when at home.

I'm not worried about lack of detailed sights on my LCP, being 'snag proof' is more important. For pocket carry(holstered) I'll also accept a heavier trigger. You'll have to want to pull it to fire. For what it is, it's fine. It's not ment to edge out your favorite 1911 at the range. I use Speer 90 grn GD's & Hornady CD also in 90 grn. That's when I'm not shooting my 100 grn RN reloads.

I have the LCP & it has functioned flawlessly with several different ammo types. It is a very small firearm, even in my smaller hands, but it is very convenient to carry & conceal , especially in hot Florida weather . In colder weather, [ yes, it gets cold here ] I carry a little larger 9mm, though.

I guess the LCP is an okay bug gun.. it can be had cheap but
is ammo sensitive and not recommended for the hot .380
loads, if there is such a thing.
I own a Kahr p380 and it digests any .380 ammo and is
accurate beyond expectations. Pricey but quality all the way..
IMHO, has to be the leader in this class of handguns

I have and carry the LCP as well. It's a great little pocket gun and it is what it is!
As stated elsewhere until it was broken in it was a bugger to rack the slide but the gun itself is improving with age and use.
I still prfer to carry my Glock 27 or my Model 36, but then again the LCP fits the need when the others just don't.

I've carried one for over a year but only when I'm wearing minimal attire. And since I'm in Florida that is often as I'm in shorts a lot. But haven't trained with it outside the holster in a looong time. I figured I should train with it as it will get used. This holster fits perfectly in my rear pocket, looks like a wallet even when you pull it out, well at least for a few seconds and hopefully that's all you'll need.

I don't have near the experience that most probably have on this forum. Personally, I find myself carrying my 638 over my LCP. It really comes down to what I trust. For me there is something "KISS" simple about revolvers. Just my logic, but I prefer my 638 over my LCP. Even though the LCP is easier to conceal.

My Ruger LCP 380
I've had mine for about 2 years. Great little "Last resort" piece. I shoot OK with it. Really wish the slide would "lock back" after the last round is fired.
I use usually will put about 20 rounds through it on range days. It gets a little frustrating at about 30 rounds. No problems with the LCP, it's just not a whole lot of fun to shoot for extended times. I got to admit though, it conceals extremely well, so well, I don't even feel I'm packing .

Isn't it amazing how many people have these little buggers? I love mine for summer carry. I added the Crimson Trace laser guard because as others have noted, the sights aren't the best, although they do work. Ammo is Hornady Critical Defense.
It's my impression this gun is meant for close up self defense and that's why I CC it. Don't expect great results for accuracy beyond 15 yards.

This holster fits perfectly in my rear pocket, looks like a wallet even when you pull it out, well at least for a few seconds and hopefully that's all you'll need.

Who makes that pocket holster?....and would it fit/do they make one for the P3AT?

Not sure who made it off the top of my head but I'll see if I still have the invoice. As I remember it he did have one for a KelTec

OMG, I forgot that's an old pic and you're correct. Things have changed and all my SD rounds are now Hornady CD

DeSantis holster.
The same model fits the Kel-Tec.

I checked the invoice and all it states is LCP wallet holster. The company I bought it from was/is called Concealment Concepts. However I looked at the DeSantis one from above and it looks the same and it's only $2 more than I paid 2 years ago so my guess is that's the same one.

Don't have a LCP but I purchased a LC9 last week and have put 100 rounds through it.
With Hornady FTP 124 grain shoots to POA and a 4" circle firing a round every 2 seconds at a measured 15 yds. Like the full 9 but understand why some carry the .380. The LC9 weights 20oz loaded and holds a total of 8 rounds.

I'm carrying two of them today, because I only own two of them.

You remind me, amigo, that I need another one. (So funny to see you posting under this handle - I'm so used to just talking to you.)
