Lets face some facts, there are times that my old Colt LW Commander 45 acp, or my Para PDA 9mm or my S&W 36 don't really allow me to carry concealed enough, the Ruger LCP .380 is highly concealable and with proper loads it will work for self defense. In my 30 year career in Law Enforcement I worked everything from uniform, plain clothes and undercover, from narcotics to being a game warden. Seventeen years of the 30 were spent also as a firearms instructor so I do have some experence. Have 2 cap and ball Colt 36s, an originasl and an Italian one, but trust me I'll take my LCP .380 with my Hornady 90 gr. Critical Defense loads anyday.

lots of

bodies in the morgue that will argue the point that a 380 "is too small" !!


My main carry is a 40 Sig P229SAS. When that is not practical I have NO problems at all carrying its twin - .380 Sig P232

Havent noticed any wave of people offering to stand in front of me while shoot the 232 !!
