I have had my LCP for about a month. Probably 200+ rounds through it. Monarch FMJ, WWB, Fiocchi, and Independence Factory Reloads. The Independence jammed every 3-5 shots. These were the second box that I bought. I started to have second thoughts about the LCP. Knowing that they were reloads, I decided to give the benefit of doubt to the ammo and not the firearm. Thoroughly cleaned the gun and tried the additional brands of ammunition. Never had another FTF or FTE. Felt much better about buying the LCP, by the way $299 at the Real Gun Show. Also from a post on another thread on this forum, purchased a pocket holster and Crimsnon Trace Laser trigger guard. http://www.pocketholsters.com. Excellent products and service.40 bucks for Independence ammo!! What a rip off. In fact I remember when I had to qualify for my last chl class and the stuff jammed every other round in my bersa .380. The instructor said we had to use a well established brand for shooting. I brought black hills but he said I should use the federals. After the 4th jam I told him I had Black Hills ammo and he told me to try it. I didn't have any ftf after that. IMO black hills is the best quality ammo for the price. Certain guns don't like certain brands of ammo and Black hills has always feed well through my firearms. Also I have had little problems with Magtech but blazer and especially Fiocchi I have have bad batches(boxes) that only 50% fired. Of course most local places don't carry black hills and you have to order it online. Try the black hills when ever the online companies have some in stock. It is well worth it.
