Hi Guys
Just curious if there are any Ruger LCP owners out there that would be willing to share the experiences. I bought a new Ruger LCP from LL Guns a while back. I love this little gun, I can't imagine a better " Im going to the store " gun out there, but... It occasionally jams on me ! Not often but often enough to give me pause.
I figured I just needed to break it in a bit , but after 320 + rounds I had a FTE yesterday while shooting on my second mag. Required a tap, rack, assess, drop mag, rack / roll glad I wasn't trying to defend myself, a little small for fast malfunction clearing .
Not exactly confidence inspiring.
I was shooting Remington FMJ from Wal-Mart. The gun is meticulously clean and lubed, I am a very experienced hand gun shooter ( no limp wrists ), Is this just the nature of the beast with these pocket automatics ?
I have read a ton of posts on various forums stating they run perfectly, this just hasn't been my experience. Maybe a trip back to ruger ? ( or replace with a 642 :winkkiss: )
Anybody eleses run good, most of the time ? Im not sure most is good enough for me.
