    Where they send me.
    I like Ruger and the .380 so hope it does well.

    I still need to noodle over what this does better than a 9mm of about the same size (aside from a bit less recoil).

    May do great as there are few (if any) competitors now.

    Need to see how much gain 9mm does have over .380 in a short barrel like that also.

    I’m in one one to replace my LCP2. I see none on Gunbroker, Buds, etc., and wonder when they will be available. Also when they will be on the MD roster. Thanks

    There is no 9mm (with capacity) the size of a LCP2 (or Max) that I’m aware of. My LCP2 is smaller than my Sig 365 for instance and carries MUCH smaller.

    I like the LCP's - I have the original and the LCP II, along with the .22 as well. Just might have to add one of these to the collection...

    I don't like .380, but I have to hand it to Ruger. They see a market and they're doing a damn fine job of supplying it with a quality product.

    This is pretty awesome, still pocket carry a CW380 as my primary P365 is a bit large for that, if this proves reliable, might be interested.

    With the new rule stating model numbers are not required, can this new pistol be purchased in MD? The handgun roster already has LCP and 380.

    I’d like to know as well, I’m immediately in....thanks. Also, I see none available on GaG now.......

    Edited to correct my fat fingers.....

    I'm guessing that it will still need a review and addition to the roster. Ruger is marketing it as a new model entirely, not a sub-model of the LCP. Wish it were otherwise. I'm not sweet on .380 in general, but like options in the safe and this one has my interest.
