I just bought a LCP II and I am use to carrying my TCP with one in the chamber. The TCP has a double action trigger so even though there is one in the pipe, the hammer is forward in the pre-cock position. Pretty much the only way it can fire is if you purposely pull the long travel trigger. The LCP II on the other hand has a single action trigger so when you carry with one in the pipe the hammer is back and the hammer spring is under tension. I realize there is a pre-cock notch on the hammer that should act as a drop safety but no drop safety on the firing pin and, Ruger does give a warning as does Taurus, not to carry with one in the chamber. Forgive me if this has already been discussed extensively as I am new here.
