Anyone bought the new ruger lcp?!?!

mike55

Has anyone bought this gun? I am wanting to get one for my wife to carry. Just wondered if anyone actually put their hands on one and fired it. If so, does it shoot good(consistant without malfunctions), and does it feel good(my wife has small hands so I thought this would be a good choice).
Thanks
Mike

Those do cost a little more, but that's not really a problem. I just saw the ruger and it is a little smaller. If it is not reliable then I will not buy it but ruger guns have always been good to me. I was just wanting to know from someone who has actually shot one of these. Thanks for the link though I will let the wife look at it.

They are going well above MSRP here on GB, but I have one ordered from a local shop for $238. when he can get one. Have not handled or shot one, but it is likely to be quite reliable with a trigger that will need work.

I have been looking at the Kel Tec and now the Ruger is out I am leaning toward them. I have a Colt Mustang now but I have seen the prices they are bringing these days so I feel bad for carrying it in my pocket.

I am looking at these 2 guns due to size and weight. The gun that is too big or too heavy to have you all the time does you no good. I normally carry a full size gun, but in the summer and shorts I prefer to have something small and light vs a big gun sitting in my car.

I believe they are a Kel-tec knock off..or very close comparison..several people on here have bragged about the Kel-tec,..personally,I have held them but not shot them,..good luck Mike..Loko..[;)]

Dealer this weekend had one. He sold it before I got to look at it. He said it was identical to the Keltec except for the grips.
