Well, I said it seemed to function flawlessly....until the first 30 rounds through it. I am experienced failures to feed with the new barrel they replaced on the recall with multiple types of ammo. The issues I asked them to address with the finish are also appearing again. Several places the the finish seem to be flaking off like a cheap satuday night special. The engraving of the diamond to signify that the recall had been done has caused additional finish issues. Once I had my little LCP back and started to carry in a crossbreed minituck holster, I left the gun overnight in the holster and was shocked to see significant surface rust spots on the new slide lock, around the LCP engraving and near the muzzle. I take very good care of my guns! I'm the type that cleans regularly when carrying and everytime I shoot. I even wipe my carry guns down on a daily basis. This is just not holding up to the riggors of a daily carry. So.....Sold the whole package holsters and all at the last market hall show and broke even on the money. Back to square one and using my Glock 23 or 19 for daily carry. Maybe time to spend the money for a wishlist item. (Kahr PM9, Glock 26-27, or maybe a walk to the dark side and I'll buy a Springfield EMP) I sincerely hope your experience with the LCP is better than mine.

Just a follow up- Recieved my LCP back after a full month. Ruger did address the issues I requested in addition to the recall and returned it with ONE extension on the new magazine. Everything seems to function flawlessly.

Just and update on my recall experience. Ruger received my LCP on 2/17. I asked them to look at an issue with the finish on the slide as well. I guess if you ask for additional work to be completed you can expect to wait! After several weeks of calling and little to no help or estimate as to when my LCP would be completed, I finally got an answer on Friday. They said it should be range tested on Wednesday and in my hands by Friday. Over a month to turn this around! Not impressed Ruger. I guess I would be a little less frustrated if the people on the phone could just give you an accurate update instead of just telling you....Sir, I don't know where your gun is in the process. I will say that everyone I have talked to has been extreemly pleasant to speak with, just not very helpful.

I signed up on the website over 3 weeks ago and I finally received my return materials in the mail today. I have been very happy with my LCP until the last trip to the range. I noticed that the finish is flaking off around the recess of the hammer. I included an additional note to Ruger to see if they will take care of finish issue along with the recall. After hearing about some of your experiences with Ruger, I do not have high expectations that this issue will be resolved even though it is very apparent in the area that the diamond marking is applied to indicate the recall service has been performed. I will post again when my pistol is returned. For now, I'll keep my fingers crossed.
