I have an LCP, also. Like many others, it does not leave my house often because I prefer my 9mm with a lot more capacity. But I DO take it to the range every time I go and shoot at least 50 rounds through it. About 75 rounds, my hand starts to hurt but if I'm going to carry it, even occasionally, I want to be able to shoot it. As long as I stay in the 10 yard range with it, I can shoot it reasonably well. I only take it places where I'm concerned about concealment. The deSantis Nemisis holster works great in a front pocket. I use a spare mag pouch on my belt and have never been asked about it.Liberty wrote: ↑Wed May 30, 2018 4:38 am The LCP is one of most popular guns in America. It should be reliable because it is a Ruger, but nobody really knows because they can't stand shooting them. Most will agree that it's better than nothing. Others will claim that because of the anemic .380ACP round not much better.
I think its a great backup gun, but If your only gonna have one gun, It should be something you can shoot a lot, and shoot often. Practice and range time is more important than what gun we are carrying.
As far as it not being up to the task, I'd offer this.
