That's exactly how I configured my lcp when I carried it--along with the magazine floor plate extension.LCP, or Kahr CM9 depending on pocket size, and the opening to draw the gun.
Often my only carry, but at times as a BUG. But always one or the other in my pocket in a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster.
I've never understood the complaints about the LCP"snappy", or "painful" recoil. Generally, 50 rounds on a range trip with my LCPis pretty common for me.
As for the "thin" grip, add a Hogue Handall Jr. grip sleeve. I added one a couple years ago, although not necessarily for recoil. It just gives me a mor hand filling grip without any noticeable decrease in concealability.
A good shot with a .380 (or .32 or even .22!) is as "capable" as a .44 magnum.
A central nervous system shot is a good shot.
So a "good shot" with a 380,32, or even 22 doesn't count. A "good shot" only counts from sort of hypothetically approved round?Quote:

Absolutely not true. These low power rounds are extremely unpredictable.
Carry a bigger, heavier gun for a while, and you'll get used to it, the same way you used to fuss about wearing shoes, or a belt, or tucking your shirt in, or wearing a shirt with a collar or all those other big boy things.

that's an incredibly ignorant thing to say.LCP for me. Fits right in my pocket holster and all. I like the heavier long trigger for its intended purpose. If you know what you’re doing 7 are all you’re ever going to need. Especially when you consider you’re never going to need it at all unless you are careless or go looking for trouble
Not in the least when you realize the first line of civilian self defense is situational awareness, and avoidance!Quote:

IMHO a smaller gun is usually adequate for the limited objective of forcing a breaking of contact with the BG.
