I might buy one at half that price.

Not long back, Smith 360's were priced around $400-450 after rebate. Five shot, 13.3 ounces. Same steel cylinder. Solid framed. Ruger gets another $100 for no trigger??? It's a clever design. But it's a $400 gun at best up against any Smith J frame.

Yup,.........another plastic gun for those that want them.........

BTW the link in the OP is no good!

I'll stick with my S&W J-Frames, 1911's and Kahr K9. Oh, and my Browning Hi-Power!

At the Houston Gun Show today Gun Zone had them for sale for 649! After seeing it in person I guess I was surprised at the size, think the SW Airlight might be nicer and cheaper.

Ouch!

Saw one at Bullettrap in Plano today. They have it priced around $450 i think but looks like there's already a wait list. Honestly I wasn't all that impressed with it.

Why pay more for plastic?

I bought one at the Houston Gun Show Sunday for $400. Too much but I got one. I went to the show with the intent of buying one.

I took it out and shot it and love it! Bulls eye first shot! I didn't have many after that but very accurate. I ordered a Crimson Trace for it and put it on today! Very cool for sure!

Why pay more for plastic?

Lighter weight
More modern design
easily modified with hand tools
more comfortable against skin
Doesn't rust
Keeps the petro chemical industries which ultimatly pays may wages.
Liberals and Greenies think plastic is evil therefore it must be good.
Metal detectors cant see it
Plastic is the closest thing to Rearden Metal that guns are made of.
Plastic can be made of black through and through.
Plastic is Storm Surge proof
Not much steel comes from Texas. Lots of plastic comes from Taxas.
Plastic is "organic"

The plastic is, but all the springs and screws are not...Unfortunately I have proof

I got mine today!

Was hoping for $450 or less, but gave in to the temptation at a little higher . (I can resist anything but temptation!) It had only been on display 10 minutes, and was the only one in stock. I had to wait a long time to get my LCP, and life is too short! Hopefully, to the range tomorrow, after a detour to get ammo and some kind of holster! (Watching Weather....WHAT DO YOU MEAN, RAIN ALL DAY !!)

On a positive note, .38sp is much easier to find than .380 these days. So LCR might be a better buy than the LCP.
