Guns are a subjective choice - especially daily carry guns. I like both the Ruger and the Kel Tec. I bought the first LCP that I saw. Have to admit that it looks better than my Kel Tec P32 - fit and finish on the LCP are what you would expect from Ruger. I took the LCP to the range and fired a single box of FMJ 380 through it. No failures of any kind. Long trigger pull, but manageable. I was confident from that session at the range that the LCP would make an excellent concealed carry choice. However, I did not like the recoil coming from that 8 oz. package! Given the much higher recoil of the LCP over the P32, that the P32 has a higher magazine capacity, and finally that the ballistics for these two different calibers don't have a great deal of difference (neither is much to brag about, especially when compared to 9mm or 38 special +P) - I decided to sell the LCP. Sold it for exactly what I paid. For the price of sales tax on the new LCP I got to try it out. I enjoyed it. But ultimately, the LCP is not for me.
