New Ruger LCP Max

[Deputydave]

Yeah but GrabaGun doesn’t have any.

Yep, heard on another forum they've already sold out the 'limited' supply they had.

I can see this taking the 380 world by storm the way the P365 took the micro 9mm world.

I would like to see this new pistol laid up against a P365 and a Glock 42 for comparisons.

It was a great gun when it was the grendel. First saw it in a pawn shop in Davie Florida in 1996

In my view, the LCP II is as big as it's worth going for a .380. One makes some compromises for easy pocketability. The slight step up in size puts it too close to a micro 9. I wouldn't trade my pm9 for it. I have an lcp II, which is what I throw in my pocket for a quick run to Publix, less than a mile away. Anything more, and the PM9 comes with me, instead.

Just do some of the overlays on handgunhero. In a lot of trousers/jeans the longer grip can be a problem. Anything looser, wider pocket top, and you can take more gun. BTW, I'd take Dave's figures on weight over those on hh.

If you guys haven't seen the video yet, it's a good one. And the part starting at the 5 minute mark where he tries to limp wrist is hilarious

I normally only carry the LCP 2 around the house/neighborhood or if I am dressed up for something like a wedding and a larger pistol isn't feasible. I decided to simply pocket carry yesterday at the family BBQ rather than strapping on the normal P365. I forgot I was carrying which is the real charm of this type of pistol. Had my P365 in the car of course. But for just pure comfort, yet still having a pistol the LCP/2 is the way to go.

So that really has me more and more interested in the Max. Basically an almost identical sized pistol to the LCP 2 and in the 12-round configuration it's only 2 1/2 ounces more in weight for an additional 5 rounds. I'd also see how the 10-round configuration feels and it still provides an additional 3 rounds.

Seems like the going street price right now is sub-$400.

I also compared the LCP Max to a Glock G42 which my wife carries sometimes. The Max is lighter, more compact/discreet, and carries more rounds. Now if only they are to be found
