New .380 by Ruger

[davep32618]

I've been a long fan of Kel-Tec's and I think that they have finally proven themselves as a leader in the CCW market, especially since Ruger has either licensed or copied the design of the P3AT. But it is nice to see big names getting into the market.

I love .380's, it is one of my guilty pleasures in life. It is hard to explain, but I feel like I am shooting candy. I have a small collection of .380's and reload for that cartridge. The closest thing I have to the LCP is a S&W Sigma .380, but I hate trying to clean it. I've carried .380's a lot before all of the ultra-compact 9mm and .40 pistols started showing up on the markets. I just called my local gunshop and told them to get one once they see it on the market. They didn't know Ruger made the LCP yet, let alone order one from their distributors. I hope the LCP has a better trigger than the Kel-tec.

Yea, that's one thing about Kel-Tecs, they will make you a hell of alot better with anything else you shoot!

That's one that will hopefully wind up in my collection. I too am a fan of the .380 !

Of course it would be a LOT CHEAPER to feed than a M11/380.....

The thing I like about these .380's, Kel-tec or Ruger is that you cannot beat the size/weight and conceal it even when you're naked! :evilgrin
