    Problems with ccw'ing the Ruger LCP?

    I was told a common problem with the LCP when carrying is when drawing the pistol, often times the mag release gets pushed in and the magazine drops? Anyone have this occur to them or any other problem that one should know about before choosing as a ccw?

    I loved my lcp...there are several things you can do to increase the friction on a nemesis style pocket holster. Never had a problem with my lcp...did sell it when I moved to CA for cah and because I couldn't carry anymore.

    I do think the trigger feels a bit better on the Kahr .380. But I loved the lcp with the crimson trace laser guard. Just remember lcp is a 10-15 yard gun....you better run if you have a longer distance to target....Love the grip extensions on all mags.

      if you have an LCP, try it out, I doubt that's the case though

          I never had that problem. The mag release needs a good push to release the mag. If you have a round in the chamber, the mag doesnt fall freely.

              I have been carrying my LCP for over a year already. No issues here.

              Any gun owner who does not support the NRA is a freeloader.
