LCP II Has Arrived

Last round hold open and an improved trigger (single action trigger? That what they say... Striker?) A contoured grip that may help reduce felt recoil, and better sights...

The looks are going to be subjective, but it does seem blockier and possibly more prone to snagging.

So... A couple steps forward and one back overall.
 
One thing I noticed is that the lcp custom is no longer on the ruger website. I wonder if they got discontinued. I really like mine.
 
Kudos to Ruger for now including a pocket holster. You really can walk out of the gun shop with a ready to roll package.

The LCPII is an ounce heavier than the old ones. Do you think that'll help with recoil at all joined with the slightly wider grip?
 
I like it too. Most complaints about LCPs over the years have been about the trigger, though the gen 2 LCPs were much better, and no last round hold open. It appears Ruger has been listening.

I like the LCP "Classic" trigger just fine. I got other complaints. the LCP II address some of that. No idea it it'd be easier on brass, but it should be easier to shoot well.
 
If they discontinue the current model, especially at the current price, that would be a shame. It's by far the best (IMHO) .380 for the money at the moment.
 
If a quality, dimunitive .380 pocket gun is your thing, you better get a sub $200 LCP while you can.
 
Hold open and light trigger makes it a winner for me. As far as looks (kind of important to me) I think this is tougher looking but looks does not save your life. I'll wait for reviews based on experience.
 
At first glance...

My initial thought was "looks more like a hellcat II"
I have an lcp, never thought it needed a makeover. Love rugers, so I'm sure it's great, and I'll still ask to hold the first one I see, and who knows...
