Ruger LCP: Junk or Jewel?

What does OSGOM mean?

Another jewel. I finally bought an LCP when Ruger (Prescott, AZ factory) offered an AZ Centennial Commemorative model in 2012. The frame is supposed to be "copper" color with AZ logos on slide.

100% reliable for me and it replaced my 642 that was my hot weather CCW for 20 years.

I have been carrying an LCP for several years in a pocket holster as a back up gun. I just tried the LCP 2. Much nicer. I may be upgrading

Broke down and bought one on Saturday. Used LCP custom. Needed something for when walking my dog or running to the store in gym shorts. The 642 was too heavy and bulky for that and everything else required a belt and holster.

Not a big fan of these but it's a cool little gun. Definitely has it's place. Now just trying to figure out what ammo to use

Hornady or Fiocchi XTP.

BTW: I like this pocket holster.

So far it has worked with every piece of clothing I've worn. I have it in my front pants pocket right now. I line the pocket with a plain white handkerchief first (partly to keep sweat off it), and you can't tell it's anything gun-related in my pocket. The gun is so light I forget it's there.

I've tried that holster in a Dickies shirt breast pocket also. It's doable but I prefer the pants pocket.

Now I have Elsie Pea with me whenever legal.

Alright. That's pretty cool.

I wasn't sure, either.

Hi, Doc

How is the "sticktion" on that holster? Does it reliably stay in the pocket when you draw?

I can tell you the free Ruger holster I got with my LCP was worth every penny, it got slippery after a day of use.

Thanks
