My mother is in a similar situation, and so I can understand a small part of what you're going through. I really hope things get better for you soon, Bob. Larry

That's the nature of forums in general, and gun forums in particular. Someone askes, "My Glock trigger could use improvement; what do you suggest?" and you'll get: "Glocks suck, you should buy a Walther" "Glock triggers are perfect, you need to learn trigger control" "If you're not shooting a...

After watching this, I got some SLIP, but still use Mobil 1 and CLP. CLP actually scored quite high in almost all categories. While folks always discuss what they like and what they've used for however long, it was interesting to see actual data on these products. Larry

At least it has real sights. How's it shoot at SD ranges? Larry

Not related to losing the pin (it's probably the ONE pin I haven't lost yet) but to removing it without scratching the slide; look on Amazon for a 'spudger'; it's a small plastic tool computer folks use to disassemble phones and such, and have various prying and disassembly surfaces, and a three...

I wouldn't call them great by any stretch, but it was Speer Lawman jacketed ball. Larry

In the guitar world, the difference is fairly well defined: Clone: A guitar with the basic shape and features of a model made famous by another manufacturer, but branded with the name and logo of the company making the clone Replica: A guitar made to replicate a model by another manufacturer...

The main (actually for me, only) attraction of the Max is the rounds/footprint equation; it's more .380 in that size than anything else available. Add 'real' sights and it gets pretty compelling. I did get the pistol back last week, and Ruger noted they replaced the barrel. I also got a target...

Thank you, Sir. Larry

After trying a variety of ammo, and reading on other sites that Ruger CAN fix this issue when guns are returned for repair, I've decided to send this one home to the mothership to see if they can get POA=POI, or at least reasonably close. The closest I've gotten is with Speer Lawman, and it's...

The issue is a G42 is in no way comparable to an LCP Max in size or capacity. If I was going to carry a 42, I'd carry my 43 or 365 instead. The Max is in a completely different class, size-wise. Larry

My LCP Max has been completely reliable through 100 rounds of ball and 15 of Federal Punch (.380 is still tricky to find and expensive...sigh.) Fully reliable, horrible trigger pull and trigger slap, shoots about 4-5" low AT SEVEN YARDS. At 25 yards I imagine I'd have to aim for a bad guy's hat...

Governments around the world have made the same miscalculation. Larry

I think you would be surprised how many people will do the things you so easily discount; we're descended from folks who risked everything to be free, and some of us still feel that way. Of course, some don't. Larry

Howdy, I just picked up an LCP Max, after buying an LCP II .22 that, after a trip back to the mothership, is quite a little shooter. The Max has been completely reliable with two 12 round and the original 10 round magazine, though I've only put 120 or so rounds through it so far (.380 is still...
