I have one that I carry in situations where I cannot carry a larger handgun. I have added a crimson trace to it, the extended mag and the Hogue grip. It now fits my hand VERY well. I have a pocket and an OWB holster with a thumb latch (I lead a very active lifestyle). I shoot it very...

The 357 mags are just a smidge loose, but my saddle maker said she can fix it. The cartridge belt was made to fit 357 through 45 LC. I am guessing the 45LC might be a smidge tight....

First,...My bride and I own 8 horses and ride daily. I've been called a "Cowboy".... but I don't have any cows and don't want any cows. I am a "Horseman". There is a picture of me back when I was about 6 with a two gun rig and cowboy hat,...complete with a stampede strap. Fast forward 55...

I have an older model and I am good with the trigger, but wouldn't mind replacing the slide to get better sights.

Yep, that's what I got out of it too. My Mini 30 is only about 18 months old, so I think I am good.....

I ran across this accessory in a post this week and it got me looking. I have the Mini 30 , black stock with the SS barrel. I've read up on the claims of the Accu-strut, and am just fishing for a review from those that have it. Worth the $100?

I have a Mini-30 and it doesn't like Russian ammo at all. Not only misfires, but bullets get stuck in the barrel. I got out the micrometer and the Russian stuff is way out of spec....both bullets and casings. I also have a PA-63 that is chambered in the Makarov round that came with...

Nothing like a firearm that will not dependably go bang at the critical moment...... How comfortable is the grip? Looks a bit small to me,... but then again, I put Hogue grips on many of mine...

I read where Fiocchi is making this ammo for Tulammo? I have had lousy luck with Russian ammo. It did not feed in my Mini 30, and in my PA-63 Makarov I have had 10 misfires out of 100 rounds (Silver Bear) attributed to hard primers OTOH,... I have had GREAT luck with Fiocchi....

DA,....PM sent.....

Just FYI,.... I found an answer to my question on another forum: If anyone is thinking of contacting Ruger about obtaining a new stainless steel slide for their old blued slide LCP, don't bother. Ruger says the stainless version is an entirely different 'model'. By changing the slide you are...

Among my " carries" is an LCP 380. The sights are non existent,... but I have a crimson trace laser on it. It has a black slide on it now. I am looking for a replacement stainless steel slide for it,...but my "Google-Foo" must be weak today. Can anyone point me to a "site" (pun...

I added the Hogue grip on mine and the magazine extender which makes is fit my hand better. I find the recoil very easy. My wife, who is very recoil sensitive, found it VERY easy. She also has a Lady Lilac LC380 that she prefers. It is not much bigger than the LCP and has a safety...

I have an older one and just put some glow-in-the-dark sight paint on the front sight. Makes a HUGE difference as you can pick up that wee bump in the front.

Took my bride to the range today. We took a number of guns with us to shoot. I had put a grip on her Lady Lilac 380 and it helped with the feel. She had complained that it felt too thin the last time. I took my new LCP and the PA-63. The LCP has the crimson trace, but I wanted to...
