I think you will like the LCP Max. I want to hear your review.

For me, a big factor in the little 380’s being pleasant to shoot is the width of the grip side to side. The original LCP was very thin and I always thought it stung the hand. While my brothers carried the LCP, I carried the TCP which had a wider grip and was easier to shoot, among other things that I thought was wrong with the LCP.

Ruger fixed all the shortcomings of the LCP with the LCP II, and I went to the Elsea Pea Dos as my primary pocket carry. My guess is the LCP Max is going to be the cream of the crop, not just for capacity, but for manageability as well.

I had my LCP Max on the display case starting to fill out the papers when I realized that the slide would not lock to the rear. There was not another in the case and I just never got around to buying one. The Micro 9 craze got in the way.

You'll just have to wait for the LCP Max II to come out. I'm sure it's already in development.

I do like the 380 cartridge. And I have it in a couple of pocket pistols, the Ruger and a a KAHR. To me though, the 380 is nothing more than a baby 45. It started with a Colt 1908 and a Star Model D. My Favorite 380 pistols today are the Browning Black Label closely followed by the Beretta 85. The ubiquitous pocket pistol to me really means a 22 rimfire my favorite today being the Taurus Poly, the LCP II Lite Rack, and the NAA Mini.

All that said, I am looking forward to the LCP Max II you speak of. Details of what you think it will be please.

But I’m getting to the point where I’m going to get what I want, regardless. Greg is wearing off on me, I guess.😂

Yes, I thought I wanted the best to play with after I retired. Retirement BTW, was supposed to be past June, the helicopter ride and 5 months hospitalization quashed that.

The problem is that I am still using the old stuff for the most part. Example, the $50 get home bag is still in the trunk of my car while the $175 bag I bought to replace it still has the tags on it.
