I spent a good deal of time at a range/gun shop today, looking at all the guns in my price range (under $420) that I could actually fit in (and get out of) my blue jeans pocket. The clear winner, at least from a fit and usable sights standpoint, was the Ruger LCP Custom ($359). I also liked the Glock 42 ($399) but I think it would take be a bit too long in a defensive situation to get it out of my pocket...just not as easy to pull as the LCP Custom.
So, for anyone who has owned a Ruger LCP Custom (or even the regular LCP):
1- Are you still liking it?
2- Have you had any major problems with the handgun?
3- Overall, would you consider it an incredibly reliable gun?
4- Would you recommend adding a Hogue Handall grip sleeve (or another type) to it?
5- What range ammo do you use and what self defense ammo do you use?
6- If you carry it in your pocket, what holster do you use..I see many recommend the DeSantis Nemesis? However, I'm not sure if the pocket holsters designed for the regular LCP will work with the Custom model or not; I assume it's taller over all with the larger sights.
7- I think it comes with a soft case...but are there any hard cases you've found to work nicely with this handgun to transport/lock it?
8- Do all the accessories that work with the LCP also work with the LCP Custom?
I appreciate any help you can provide!
