What does the LCP in Ruger stand for?
Lightweight Compact Pistol
The LCP, which stands for “Lightweight Compact Pistol”, was designed in direct response to customer requests for a compact firearm for use by police as a back-up, and a defensive handgun for civilian concealed carry needs. In 2013, a seven-round extended magazine was released for the LCP.
Does Ruger make a 380 revolver?
During Bob Ward’s Shooters Day I was able to try two Ruger handguns in smaller calibers; the Ruger LC 380 and the LCR revolver. The LC380 is basically the LC9 chambered in . 380 caliber, which is also known as 9MM Kurtz. This is a polymer frame gun with an alloy steel slide and barrel, both of which are blued.
Is LCP Max hammer fired?
It’s also interesting to note that unlike many pistols, the ejector is actually part of the slide-stop, rather than a separate part that sits in the frame. The increased capacity is the most notable change from the Ruger LCP II, and like the LCP II, it is an internal hammer-fired pistol (not striker).
What ammo does the Ruger LCP 2 use?
The LCP II is chambered for the . 380 ACP centerfire round. This is basically a shortened 9mm round that is loaded with a standard 9mm bullet. The most popular bullet weight seems to be 90 grains and can be found in everything from wadcutters to high-end police-style self-defense rounds.
Is Ruger LCP drop safe?
In 2008, Ruger received a small number of reports from the field indicating that LCP® pistols could discharge when dropped onto a hard surface with a round in the chamber. We are firmly committed to safety and would like to retrofit all older LCP® Pistols.
How much does a Ruger LC 380 cost?
