FS: Ruger LCP .380 auto +lasergrip Lots of Pics!
#1
SOLD

name: Jesse
location: Charlottesville
contact: p.m., post, aim
price: SOLD (original cost $330 w/extra mag, plus $190 for laser)

I bought this nearly a month ago to be a backup gun, but I haven't used it aside from going to the range the last couple weekends. It has ~350 rounds through it. 250 of those were done yesterday after installation of the CT laser. It's a little out of adjustment, but you can see that it makes it a bit easier to put the rounds in the same place (see pic of target below).

This shoots .380 auto ammo, which is just about the same price as .40s&w, so cost isn't so bad. I want to sell this so i can put the money into fixing my prelude. I may end up getting another one down the road, depending on how things go.

There aren't too many of these floating around just yet since they are fairly new. I've only taken it to the range three times and it was cleaned/oiled afterwards.

Comes with Ruger LCP, Ruger zipper case, original box/manual, two 6rd magazines, Crimson Trace laser 'grip,' Crimson Trace box/manual. This is a $540 value.

Buyer must be 21 y/o (with 2 forms of id showing same address) and legally able to purchase a handgun in the State of VA. A bill of sale will be signed at the time of purchase.

You can see how the laser dot is out of adjustment. I forgot to bring the hex wrench with me to the range, so i just kept aiming at the center of the target. This was from about 7 yards. The laser makes it very easy since you can focus on the target instead of trying to use the small sights. A friend shot some rounds through it as well, and was trying to use the sights instead.

Would this be a good choice for home defense? I'm still in the market, especially after there was a fatal shooting last night in a townhouse community near where I live where I was dating this girl.

It would be a good concealed carry weapon, but I'm not sure I can call it a "good choice for home defense".

If you want to defend your home, buy a 12 or 20 gauge pump shotgun, with a short barrel and (yes) a full stock. Load the magazine, and keep the chamber empty, with the safety off by your bedside. You can grab it and rack it very quickly and 00 buck will stop any intruder, they are very inexpensive, very user friendly.

If you want to carry, I would say this isn't a *bad* firearm to do so, as long as you get good, modern, expanding ammunition...but it's certainly not the best. I consider 9mm the absolute minimum caliber for any use.

If you want to buy your girlfriend/wife/mother a gun, this isn't a bad one for her to stick in her purse. But to defend your home? Eehhh...I dunno.

i agree with the captain...this gun isn't bad for concealed carry - it's the size that sets it apart from the rest...it's smaller than even a small frame smith and wesson. very concealable...i think most would refer to it as more of a backup gun than a primary carry gun.

sure thing.

the lasergrip on this thing makes point and shoot a reality...it's definitely something i'm going to look into for any carry gun i get in the future.
