I think I found a replacement for my LCP Custom.

 

[rooster]

Wow. Almost the same size as an LCP and holds 10 rounds.

.380 yawn. I have trouble getting excited about any .380 guns. TETO

 

[DadSmith]

So this is their new release?

A modern 12rd 380acp looks very interesting.

 

[VERT]

If it has a decent trigger and usable sights then I think they have something. Might be a Glock 42 killer.

Glocks are the cockroaches of the gun world, they are impossible to kill.

The real difference I see is it's width, being 12+1 it has a double stack magazine and the longer magazine extension option. But I would like to see one to compare to my LCP.

I already have a compact 12+1, 9mm with 3 magazines for a total of 37 rounds, if that's not enough then I'd better find a hiding place.

I’m surprised it doesn’t have an optics cut to be honest. Seems to be the magic marketing button lately.

Slide width is 0.81" pretty hard to find a reflex to put on it. They will have to make a smaller reflex sight.

Pretty soon slides will be so thin you'll only be able to put something on top the slide like a blade at the rear with a notch cut out of it and something like a dot at the front of the slide which you can see through the notch. Either that or a McDonald's straw.

And it can use the same holster as your current LCP.

Does anyone have any info on a release date?

Holster!!!!! What holster? You mean they make holsters for these little things, well I'll be. Next thing you'll be telling me is that Biden isn't fit to be president. LOL.

I'm sorry, I didn't think it would be nessasary to use purple.

For some I recommend carrying in the front pocket with no holster in hopes of self fixing. One does not need to die to receive a Darwin Award, just do something to prevent procreating.

Some online places already have them.

Front pocket carry with a trigger guard cover thingy almost ten years now. Never worried about it. On the off chance it could go off (same chance as in a full holster), my other knee is more at risk than my junk.

If someone wishes to buy one for me to review, please contact me.

If it’s still pocketable I’m in. Love my LCP II for the rare times that I pocket carry. More bullets is always better.

 

[snorko]

A gen I LCP has been my work pocket carry for years. Totally reliable and i can shoot it well. I have a Hogue grip on mine which means the Max is probably about the same thickness. Definitely will be getting one when available. I carry with an extended 7 round mag so a couple 12 rounders will be included.

I have an LCP as my "politically correct" carry gun (i.e. when you can't carry a larger gun due to clothing restrictions - weddings, funerals, swimsuit and etc.). I have been looking to upgrade and this might be it but, has anyone seen the size specs - compared to an LCP / LCP 2? I keep reading it's "close to" the same size.
