Re: Ruger LCP - First Range Visit

When I first got the LCP, it jammed with various ammo. 380 ammo was nonexistant at the time so I had to try whatever I could get my hands on. Magtech (fail), Buffalo bore (fail) also killed my hand trying to shoot it. I didnt even finish the box since I was concerned it was killing my barrel along with my hand. Finally got some carry ammo (JHP's) about 3 months later. Hornady 90gr XTP (fail), Rem GSabres 102gr (fail). All the fails were failure to feed/cycle.

Ran accross some Fioucchi 95gr FMJ's and they cycled no jams. Got my hands on some Speer 90gr Gold-dot HP and they were 100%. I have about 500 rounds thru her now. Mostly shoot reloads at the range now except when I rotate my carry mag.

Not my most accurate gun but at close range <7yds it will hit what I aim at.

My main carry is my G27 and sometimes G17, but this LCP can really HIDE!! It's not my favorite gun but for now I wouldnt trade it now that I found reliable ammo. Actually, I would love to test a Kahr 380.
