New LCP First Impressions.

[texastactical]

I picked up a Ruger LCP to use as a backup and a quick grab n go pocket gun last week. I was at the range MDing an IDPA Match and had a few minutes and decided to try out the LCP.

I started at 7 yards and fired a full magazine through it. Being pleased with those results I backed up to 10 yards. Even with the miniscule sights and shooting offhand I was impressed. I then backed up to 20yards and proceeded to put 12 rounds into the head of an IDPA target unsupported. I didn't measure the group but in retrospect I think it was no bigger than 3" to 4" inches at the most. This was done with WWB.

I am very impressed with the shootability and accuracy of this little gun.

Wow... 20yards, 3 to 4 inch group...short barrel. Good shootin!!!!!

I like to shoot at least one target/couple of magizines at 15 yards every range visit. My groups began to open up at about 60......years.

You are so perceptive GringoP ;)

My brother bought one when it first came out, and he really disliked the trigger. Comment?

It's a long trigger pull and not fun for plinking, but I love my LCP for CC.

The trigger will probably be annoying if you are used to shooting striker fired guns. If you have had any experience with DA or DA/SA guns it really isn't that bad. It is a long pull, but not obnoxiously so.

I made the mistake of putting 150 rounds through it right after I got it. Ouch.
