Looking for a lightly used Ruger LCP. Anyone have one before I hit the gunshow? Prefer FTF in DFW area.

Did you get rid of the Sig P238?...

No, it's a keeper. I liked the size so much I also got a Colt Mustang. For some reason, the pocket 380's interest me, don't know why.

I picked up a new one at Bass Pro for $300. Their normal price is $330ish, but they will match Cabela's if you ask.

Academy has them for $319. I just looked at them yesterday, considering getting one for my wife as soon as she commits to getting her CHL.

Grayhawk, it's a disease. I have 15 or 16 pocket .380s at last count.

PM sent on an LCP or a P3AT

They go for $275-$280 at just about every table in the Gun Show. I'd just go ther and get a new one.

I think they're awful to shoot, but I recentely decided I would be picking up one for myself post CHL arrival. It's just too cool to have a gun that fits in your pocket to not have one.

I don't think it's bad at all to shoot... it's tamer than the Kel Tec P3AT. Put a rubber grip on it to help hold onto it and absorb shock and even better. Now it is NOT a fun range gun to be sure...about 50 rounds at a time is all I care to do. The Taurus TCP is even smoother in shooting in my opinion and the slide locks back in last round and is cheaper.

Better find one for your wife to shoot first. She may not like it.

My wife refuses to practice with her P3AT, so I put a couple of magazines through it about twice a year.

Anyone hit the gunshow today? Was wondering what they may be going for? Trying to decide if its worth admission, parking and cost of LCP.....

That's what I meant. When I shoot my Glock 19 or the Beretta, it's a couple hundred rounds. The LCP (when I get one) will be lucky to see an entire box when I do shoot it. Either way, the one I shot was reliable and the size of my knife. That's flippin' sweet in my book.

Apparently my quest has come to an end. Bought a Saiga instead. Don't reckon it will fit in a pocket holster???

Sounds like you still have a pocket that needs to be filled with a pocket gun. I think that's as good a reason as any for a gun purchase. Maybe it's because I'm not married and still have single money.
