About the Ruger LCP II (.380)
The Ruger LCP II weighs under a pound loaded and disappears in a front pocket, which defines its entire design brief as a last-resort backup gun. The slide carries aggressive serrations, the trigger uses a pre-cocked mechanism with a defined break, and the sights are molded in rather than left as the earlier model's milled groove. It feeds modern .380 hollow points more reliably than the pocket pistols of the previous generation. The 2.75-inch barrel limits velocity, so bullet selection matters more than with longer guns. It is a specialist tool, not a range pistol.
