• LCP Max

    From JIMMY ANDERSON@VERT/OTHETA to ALL on Thursday, July 08, 2021 22:06:00

    Just saw something about this today... Seems Ruger has
    updated their LCP to a generation 3 and call it the MAX.

    My wife has an LCP II .380 with a laser I bought for her.
    She uses it as a backup weapon in a sicky holster. After
    getting the SIG and transitioning to it as a backup, I
    really like the full setup, so was thinking of something
    similar. Right now, I don't have an actual 'backup' and
    if I don't have my holster on me I just drop my .40 in
    my back pocket... Not ideal at all...

    So, they have announced a new one. I've seen some
    things online about it, but THIS video is probably
    the best one so far, and I like Roy too. :-)

    Off-topic, but that pistol in particular just really reminds me of the one in the game Team Fortress 2. Maybe the way the back of the grip bends, I dunno.

    No idea - never played that one. :-)

    Carry first generation LCP .380 as a backup, or if deep conceal is an issue as primary. Always able to manage a pair of mags to go with it. Picked up an LCR in .22 WMR for my wife (she's quite recoil averse), and a LCR in .38 SP for myself. Like the shrouded hammer on it, but could use a more full-size grip (as on my Rossi M-68).

    I have a buddy that likes the look of the first gen better, and it can
    still be found around here at a good price...

    I like the idea of two mags as backup... I have my pistol in a holster
    on my right hip and two mag holsters on the left. I wear a shirt to cover
    it all. If I do get a Ruger (or something, anyway) as backup I will
    definately want backup mags too. At least for the times that that is
    my, as you say, deep cover primary carry.
