The Ruger LCP MAX, chambered in .380 Auto, represents a significant advancement in the domain of concealed carry firearms. This formidable pistol accommodates 10+1 rounds within the same compact dimensions as its predecessor, the LCP II. With a width of less than one inch and weighing under 11 ounces, it stands unrivaled among micro-9 pistols for ease of concealment and comfort.
The hallmark of the LCP MAX is not merely its enhanced capacity but also its engineering prowess. The double stack magazine features optimized feed lips to ensure reliable cycling with today's wide variety of .380 Auto ammunition. Despite accommodating four additional rounds over previous models, this flush-fit magazine maintains an identical profile when compared to the extended floorplate version used by the LCP II.
In terms of sighting systems, Ruger equips this model with a tritium front sight outlined in white for rapid acquisition alongside a generous u-notch rear sight that enhances alignment precision. For those who appreciate practical design elements, the square face on the rear sight facilitates one-handed cocking while steel construction ensures durability and drift-adjustability aids accuracy.
The grip frame boasts medium texturing for secure handling without compromising comfort or accessibility to Ruger's Secure Action trigger system—renowned for its short and crisp pull complemented by an inner safety mechanism. Enhanced manipulation is achieved through pronounced cocking ears and deeply set slide serrations.
Smooth contours define every edge on both slide and frame ensuring no discomfort during carry; meanwhile, a reversible magazine release caters to all shooters' preferences. Each purchase includes essential accessories: one 10-round magazine complete with finger grip extension floorplate, a pocket holster for discreet carrying options, and an efficient magazine loader.
