Mine said they weren't keeping a waiting list, that I would just have to keep calling.

We had a new member here read about the LCP, decided that he wanted one, went to Academy and bought one, and six hours later had given us a range report. He had no idea that they were scarce. Some folks have al the luck.

I've called all of the Academys within reasonable driving distance to hear reports of "we've only had two all year" and "we have no idea if we'll get any". A person would have to call at least three times a week since I'm told they get deliveries then.

When I called last, I was told that their distribution center had four. I asked if I could prepay one and was told that they were not available.

Anyone who finds one at Academy should go straight to a store and buy a lottery ticket.

At the same show that Alan sold out of the LCP's @ $335, Schramm's was trying to charge $419.

At the last Pasadena show prior to this, Alan was selling the LCP for $335. I've been told the dealer cost is around $220.

Came close to a Ruger LCP this weekend at Pasadena.

I walked in early Saturday and immediately went straight to AJC and Schramm's to look for any LCP's.

AJC had none and Schramm's was still wanting $399, down from their ridiculous $419 at the previous show.

I went about walking through the rest of the show until I saw one sitting on a table marked $295. I got to pick it up and fondle it briefly before the dealer snatched it from my hands. Seems there was a customer already filling out his 4473.

So don't give up hope for finding one at a price that is at least reasonable, if not cheap.
