Since doing this video, I've purchased my own LCP MAX and a couple of extra magazines. I've also installed Talon Grips, their Pro version, on it. Makes for a very lightweight handgun with 11 rounds, for those days when you don't really want the weight or size of a "real" firearm. :-)
Nice
IT ALL COME'S OUT IN THE WASH, BROTHER!! LOL!!
Do you like the way it shoots?
I couldn't help it I bought the 12 round magazine for mine !
@@saleemimalikimusawwirbey9029 It shoots fine, considering it's so small.

I still can't believe what an awesome shot Hickock is . Hitting the gong at 80 yards with a micro pistol !!!
Where can I get the clip that keeps it open after last shot RUGER LCP 380
If the zombies ever attack, I want Hickok45 in the foxhole with me!
@@williambarr2228 only the LCP II and the Max stay open after last round, I hated that about my LCP CUSTOM. I always had to count. I didn't know they made a.mag or a mod to keep slide back when empty.
@@michaelsantosuosso7284 knowing where your sights print on paper is a big part of getting acquainted. Basic smarts. Get a good set of sights and paint them with a mix whitening the background and clear nail hardener on top. Bright for the first 15- 20 minutes, then dim slowly over 12 hours. More than most need to get their night vision. You'll see double image on a largish target, close your left eye. As always largish target on paper and flashlight, preferably zoomable and set to tight beam. Experience...
I knew he was gonna hit it. haha
Sweet little 380. Ruger, please put 2 Magazines in the box. 1 Magazine is just nonsense
Yeah I have a Sig Sauer P365 so extra magazines are around $50, but the gun came with 2 mags in the box.
@@MrTassadarzo sig is 17.5 oz this lcp is somewhere around 11
@@sterrshow5016 Dang I might get one for my fiance. I like the 10+1 magazine, and .380 is a little lighter than 9mm so this could be the gun for her EDC.
Yep, should come with 2 mags and i love my LCPII. being a smaller person i hve no plans to move to the max. Let us not foget that the real reason we went into Afganistan was to get Bin Laudin. Not to make it a democracy.
@@rayditzenberger9517 Agreed, but we also shouldn't have left behind billions of dollars worth of military equipment for the Taliban to steal. The plan in place was to pull out U.S. troops and EQUIPMENT, but the plan was abandoned because the current administration is maliciously incompetent. They declared that US citizens and personnel would not receive priority during evacuation, which is completely backwards. Now the Taliban is driving around vehicles that were paid for with our tax dollars and beheading people with U.S. military M4s strapped to their shoulders.
Watching 2 years from now btw! 🤣 I love my LCP Max
Prophetic wasn't he?
I would kill for this man to be my grandfather. Humor, intelligence, and wittiness at 71 years old. A true American.
Carried my II since it came out. Traded it in for a Max last week and am extremly pleased with it. Ruger hit a home run, again.
I would get this lcp max if I didn't already have my GOAT g42 .380! g42 is smooth and so easy to shoot. I don't pocket carry. Not tactical enough for me.
@@troytruong8246 It shoots just as well, if not better than the Glock.... I have both. Ruger really nailed it with this trigger.
How much did you get for trading in the lcp II?

Love my LCP Max. The first gun I actually love to carry on me everyday, and isn’t that the goal?
Do you still carry it?
The LCP Max is an excellent little 380 pocket pistol. It is currently my backup /pocket EDC. I have 200 rounds through it so far with zero issues. I am very impressed how accurate it is considering it’s size. The only downside is the magazine. If it sits fully loaded for long time, the slide will not stay open after the last round is fired. Not a deal breaker for me. I still love this little thing.
I've been hankering for a .380 pocket pistol for a while now and I'm gravitating more and more towards it. My EDC is a S&W M&P shield, but I was curious if the Lugar comes out of the box with a clip that has a pinky extension?
Thanks in advance!
@@livefreeprintguns yes it does come with an extended base pad uninstalled. You`ll have to switch it out if you want to. For size comparisons I wear size large gloves. I tried the pinky extension and didn`t like it. It was to small for me. I prefer curling my pinky under the base pad. It feels weird at first but after a while it just feels natural. I think if you want a bit longer grip, might as well buy a 12 round magazine for it. By the way I alternate between the Shield Plus and the LCP Max as well.
@@Xlac Thanks!
Interesting. I watched Colion Noir shoot it and noticed the slide failed to lock back. Not a huge deal, but kind of a bummer.
I bought the lcp max 2 weeks ago. This pistol is perfect for edc during the hot summer. I really like the 10+ and 12+ magazines. The sights are very good for my aging eyes! Fits well in my medium size hands too!
I upgraded my LCP 2 to the LCP Max. It basically does everything just a little bit better. Even slightly less recoil. Winner winner chicken dinner
You basically went back to an LCP
@@bluedinero3055 Not even close...LCP2 that's been updated! The LCP has 8 or 9 lb trigger pull. LCP2 is solid but snappy. Max is less snappy especially considering the size, but similar trigger to LCP2, best of all, fits in my lil old holster and now I have 10+1! Love it!
What do you think of the sites big improvement?
Ooohhh good to know . I got the max! As recommended by the shop guy. I’m a 5’3 120 lb woman.. and I’ve had a few instances where men try to pull me out of my car 😫
Maybe for the seccs trafficking or .. who Fckn knows but I’ve been living in constant panic
@@christopherwg4236 big improvement but outside'day' sight could be better. But now the sight can be changed!
I have been waiting for the smallest , lightest gun with a decent amount of bullet and this guy its just perfect.
Even if 380 is not your cup of tea for every day carry. For the summer days, as a back up or to just go to the store in your shorts, this thing is a must.
There are Small .45 Pistols out there!
...get this one now OR wait for the LCP Max II Harley Davidson TALO America Pro Edition in Nickel Cerakote?
@@Projectoxcart not this small.
@@Projectoxcart Down Sizer derringer is really tiny derringer.
What the hell do you do during your summers?
6.2 million subs WOW! You deserve it and more, such a pleasure to watch. Thank you for all you do
long live hickok45... my god bless this man with health and happiness. Such a youtube treasure
I carried the LCP II for years, and just upgraded to the LCP Max. The sights on the Max make a huge difference. They turn the LCP from a "get-off-me" gun into a legitimate performer at traditional handgun distances.
Agreed. I shoot mine at 20 yds vs 8x12 mini silhouettes and have no problem scoring consistent hits. At 7 yards it's every bit as fast and shootable as any other service pistol, IMO.
As seen here: ruclips.net/video/N0S-_I7CZ7o/видео.html
should have bought g42 years ago bro. U missed out. g42 is the best .380 micro shooter on the market.
@@troytruong8246 g42 is obsolete.
@@Valorius if u shoot the the g42, u will pick the g42. Expert gunners and reviewers said so. All my friends and family have g42.
@@troytruong8246 you live in a very small world apparently, the g42 is obsolete
Thanks for your post. I've had a Ruger LCP II for a couple years and recently picked up the LCP MAX. The grip on the LCP MAX fills my hand much better than earlier versions of the LCP and is a pleasure to shoot. The added capacity makes the LCP MAX all the more attractive.
I love my little 380. I've carried it for a month now without any special maintenance, aside from weekly cleaning, and haven't had any of the rust people reported. Sights are right on. Fits well in the pocket with very minimal printing in a good holster. I added the pinky extender and talon grips, game changer. I have been carrying this 75% of the time and feel the 10+1 should be more than adequate, although I do carry a spare magazine. Practice that pocket draw and this is really a smooth carry.
I picked up an LCP Max last week at a local gun shop and I was surprised at how well this firearm shoots. I'm not going to say it has a soft recoil but it is not snappy either. I put 50 rounds through it without a hitch using Federal American Eagle 95 grain. Very accurate at 7 yards and although it is very small it was easy to handle. Thanks for the video, as always, it was very helpful!
You are an amazing shooter. I have watched your videos for many years. Your knowledge of firearms and shooting is astounding. Keep up the amazing work.
Best little carry gun ever over all my 9's & .45's! unbelievably accurate and reliable! Astounding beyond belief! My new EDC.
Didn't think I needed one, but I think this'll be my next purchase! Looks. Like a sweet little firearm. Thank you for the excellent review!
Watched this video when it first came out and was revisiting today, Two years later. Stay Blessed!
Hickok, thank you for making this video! I’ve been looking forward to it, and in true Hickok style, you didn’t disappoint!! 🔥🔥🔥
Bought one a few weeks ago for my EDC & I love it. Fits great in the pocket, very discreet & shoots like a champ
Yep, I also purchased a 12 round magazine.
@@BigJon410 That's my next purchase for it
Me too, and loving it. Great pistol.
Fun fact, because it takes S&W Bodyguard sights, you can by a Bodyguard red dot mount that replaces the rear sight, and put a small red dot sight. Kinda kills Pocketability, but would make it shoot even better and give ya that cool factor. I might do it to mine.
Me 2
Thanks for the tip on the finger pinch. I have a LCP Max with the same problem. I fixed it like you did. No more pinching! I have many carry options, but love the Max.
I bought a new max 380 in dec. 2021 shot about 100 Rds and I got a pit in the barrel called storm Ruger rep and Ruger agreed to send me a new barrel and slide assembly, great service and a gun maker that will stand up for it's product, very pleased at this point.
Picked this up as my very first 380 acp gun and also first pocket pistol. Love it! Shot 150 rds at the range recently with no problems or break in hiccups. Mixture of Federal FMJ and Hornady JHP. Brother loved the gun when I showed it to him so I just gave it to him with the intention of just getting another soon.
Welcome to the stub club🙃 just kidding. We generally leave off the acp when describing the 380. You'll look cooler and save time!
Also, you may enjoy Underwood xtreme Defender ammo. If it's available still...
♥️
Thanks for doing the review. I bought the LCP 2 a couple years ago and decided to buy the Max too, and I'm not disappointed. So far it is has been a fine firearm.
Love my 380 max . The 12 round mags function perfectly . Love the trigger . And so easy to conceal .
After watching this video, I bought the LCP Max and the extra 12 round mag, love it, gonna be a great summer pocket carry gun. Your review made me think about looking into this gun, glad I did
Thank you. After the last few days of horrible news coverage from Afghanistan and the terrible things happening I’ve been super depressed. Having had a brother in law and friends come back just completely not okay after that war and the way we left is so hard to digest. Watching you hit that bottle and just get sprayed and then having so much fun reviewing the LCP made me almost tear up. Just the wholesomeness of your videos as well as Matt at Demoranch makes me tune out a lot of stuff even for a couple hours a week. Thanks so much @hickok45 you’re a bright light
I hear ya man. Stay strong bro
Hang in there bro…I think we’re all sick/disgusted in how this all went down. Believe me you’re not alone.
Hickok has been hitting the bottle! Dat funny!
Thank
@@davidmuir7711 I just re-read that and oh boy that’s not how I intended to come off but it’s pretty funny 😂
I remember your old Ruger LCP video with the original version.
Despite that trigger you still made it look easy.
You convinced me. I'm going to purchase one very soon. Thanks Hickok for always being so honest about the firearms you demonstrate for us, for keeping politics out of it, and for being such a crack shot! You inspire us all!
LPC max is a great little gun. I was very surprised and happy with this little shooter.
I’ve got the lcp2 and the lcp max love them both , you might say I’m addicted to guns and like watching your videos ,I’ve bought a lot from your recommendations.
Coming from I guy who destroyed my right shoulder. This gun has been a life saver. I've been through two shoulder surgeries on my dominant arm in less than a year. I'm still not able to carry any of my rigs on my right side a year later. I'm looking at another surgery. I can't even raise my arm enough to shoot someone in the kneecaps. This gun has become my everyday carry. I drop it in my left pocket and go. It's not what I want to carry caliber wise. But 13 rounds of 380 with a extra ten round magazine on my side. Beats a sharp stick any day.
I bought this gun a little while back after watching your video. Thanks Hickok! Out of the box had an issue with feeding 10 rounds in the magazine. After shooting about 150+ rounds through it, the gun now feeds properly and is my favorite carry pistol. I'd much rather carry .380 than not carry at all because it's too heavy to take on walks/hikes.
"Oh yeah, that's a great gun for de-fence"...cracked me up. Keep it up guys!
Thank you. I am a small frame guy with small hands. My first pistol was a S&W 659 that I bought in 1985, but it was too big for me to carry. I still have it and love it. My second purchase was a Walther PPK/S that I carried for a long time. I looked at the Hellcat and others similar 9mm, and have held off. I think I am going for an LCP Max. Don't get me wrong, I have numerous pistols these days, but have been looking for something small to conceal again. I think this is it. Thank you again.
I bought one early on after released. I’ve shot around with it a couple of times and it’s a great shooter. Haven’t had any problems. Love the capacity, the weight, trigger is good, nice sights, and I like the ability to one-handed rack the slide with the front flat edge on the rear sight.
Like steak preference
I'm a beta tester, too. Bought mine the day after they hit the stores. Excellent little shooter, and ran all 150 rounds I could afford to put through it the first day, half being 95-grain Winchester Train FN-FMJ, and half being the same weight in their Defend JHP.
I carry it with the HP in the chamber and first three in the magazine, with the FMJ following.
My only issue is the 10-round magazine not reliably locking the slide back in live fire (it does in manual empty-mag racking.) I had already sourced a 12-round magazine, which works properly. When I contacted Ruger, they offered to send me a new magazine; what arrived was another 12-round one. I pulled and stretched the spring in the 10-rounder, but haven't been back to the range yet.
All in all, it's a great carry gun. Not sure it will ever fully replace the Kel-Tec P32 I've been toting as a BUG for eleven years now, but it's getting close.
Good video Hickock. I've had my LCP MAX about a year and a half now. No problems whatsoever. Great little carry weapon. Nice sights and low recoil. I would highly recommend for back-up or just pocket carry. Thanks for all your videos. Very helpful and entertaining.
I've taken two different pistol classes and always had my best groupings with Rugers. This one looks perfect for my bitty hands.
LCP tends to bite the hand
@@bluedinero3055 I have chonky small hands / weird bc I’m a small woman but I’ve learned you have to make sure you only use the tips of your fingers .. and basically not cup your fingers around the top.. bc when I was cupping I was getting pinched
The sacrifices he makes for us viewers! I am impressed.
That first salvo is impressive. Remarkable shoosting, didn’t think it could be done but Hickok is no ordinary man. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say “ he won’t shoot the gong!” before I watch the whole video. I’ll be nae surprised if he does it. He’s no ordinary bloke.
Addendum: He hit the gong.
Who doesn't love Hickock? So much fun to watch gun reviews from a normal nice man.
Pretty impressed when the LCP 2 came out! Been Very happy with it easy to carry and shoot! Definitely the Max is a plus. Won't replace my P 365 but More is always better!
Got one and love it!! 12 round mag is great too. Your thoughts are right on!! Great little pistol..retail $350 200 rounds of both jhp and fmj without a hiccup!!
I've never experienced the pinched finger of which you spoke in the upper part of the trigger shooting my LCP II or my LCP Max, but I did have that same problem shooting a CZ 97. Another great video and thanks for all of them.
Not even a minute in, and you've already wet yourself. Glad you're still being you, any one of your videos works as punctuation when I tell someone that shooting is fun.
Put in an order for the Max about 5 minutes after finding out that they exist. My LCP 2 gets carried more than anything else, but if all goes well it's switching to reserve duty. I look at them the same as my box knife. Goes to work with me, does everything it needs to do, but doesn't inspire any passion, nor does it need to. Just a no nonsense, well functioning tool that's convenient enough to put on your person and forget.
Fantastic summer carry. With 12 round mag still comfortable pocket carry. Like the upgraded sights too.
I bought an LCP Max as my first ever gun and I love it. Got it with an extended mag for 12+1 and it’s very nice to use. Good recoil control, decent sights for a tiny handgun, and can confirm it’s surprisingly wieldy for something so small. Absolutely is going to be my everyday carry.
With that 12+1 is it still good to put in your pocket? I’m considering this piece
Mr hickcok45 I don't buy a gun until I can see a video of you reviving the gun I want to buy you are the most trustworthy person I have ever heard thank you
Awwww, Hickok! No bowl or container for the ammo? That is one of my favorite parts about your reviews. Is the sound of loading the pistol and metal clacking together. Trying to figure out if the LCP MAX is going to be good for my wife. Fact: #1 for gun reviews! Keep it up! Great job 👏 👍🏻 👌 🙌
I own the LCP II and love it. The max brings more to the table though. Good video.
Love the LDP Max. Have the old model LCP which my wife has because it fits her small hand better, but the 12 round mag was a disappointment, went back to the 10, works great and pretty accurate. Since then, I have developed some reloads, using CFE Pistol and Winchester 231 and the new critical defense 68gr bullets (look like drill points), these clocked at just under 1200 fps and did some real damage to a freezer burned rump roast, through two blue jean legs and the recoil is not that bad, for some reason the recoil feels different in this gun than in my other guns, could be the powder but whatever, with some 90 grain lead RNFP bullets and W231, makes a nice training load and fun to shoot at the range. This new load for me takes the 380 to another level, no longer a mouse gun. Thank you Ruger, and Hickock, you are still the greatest. Love this little Max. PS Bought the 12 round mag, just load 10 in it, but it adds to the grip and I love it. And if 10 won't do it, I will just throw the gun at them and run like hell.
I just bought one today and oddly enough watched your video around 5:30. So far I've been pleased with it. I really like the sights especially in low light conditions.
Glad to hear you say “I’m buying one” when available. I also have the LCP 2 and really like it slot, but I am also seriously thinking about the max now.
I just picked one of these up and I'm happy to hear about your experience while I wait for ammo to appear from the internet. Thanks for doing these videos, they're helpful!
@@alwaysfreedom9354 Amen. I have bullets, brass, powder to outlive me. Primers? No. I can go for a while, but it dwindles with time.
Finally got me one of these today (7/12/2022) and I’m extremely happy with what Ruger has done with their LCP line. After previously owning two original LCP’s and then moving onto a LCP II but still not liking the capacity nor the sights, I think I’ve finally settled on a small pocket pistol/shorts and flip flop day carry option. This really has nice sights and the trigger is, I swear, even better than the LCP II, but having 13 rounds (with the 12+1 magazine) is really making it hard to wanna carry my tried and true Glock 26. This just is an easy grab and go option.
Great video. This helped open my eyes to the new gadgets from Ruger. Glad I saw this.
“It’s better to have something than nothing”.
agreed...my LCP Max with Talon grips and 12 round mag's is exactly what the doctor ordered........accurate to shoot and so so easy to hide anywhere.........good video my man....
I have an LCP2 and love it. I put a Hive +2 mag extension on it so can be a 8+1, as well as the length makes it nicer to grip. But the 10rounds and better sights makes me really want one of these.
I've owned a glock 19 and some snub nose revolvers but the ruger lcp max has been the best ccw gun ive had so far. With the 12 round mag, it fits in my hand perfectly and with the single action trigger it has been a pleasant shooter for the size.
I'm happy that gun manufacturers are making a variety of firearms for all types. I don't have huge hands and this pocket pistol is definitely on my Christmas list.
I get a pinch on the bottom of my index finger. Otherwise the max is perfect
I just bought the max just put about 120 rounds including hp and this little.380 didn’t have any failures at all,very pleased with it so far!
Just bought one! I liked it based on your opinion. Nice little gun. Surprisingly accurate. Shooting at 50'. Thanks Hickok 45.
Thanks for the review. I have shot the LCP .380 and the LCP 22lr. I like them as pistols. Especially the 22lr because the ammo is cheap. I think Ruger has a winner in the pistol you reviewed. Hoowah!
I love mine. Super easy to just throw in the pocket and go about your day, and most of the time forget you even have it on you.
Same here! I have carried a LCP version “1.5” for quite a few years now and have never had a malfunction with it. I had a LCP 2 that was nothing but problems that I got rid of. I picked up the LCP Max a few weeks ago and it’s phenomenal! Shoots easier and the trigger is awesome for a pocket gun. Love it!
Yep! Watching this 2 years after this video came out. I appreciate your reviews and the recommendation.
Hickok45....great review. Here's another hint at the finger-pinch issue. Yes...smoothing over the plastic edges of the frame ( where the trigger pokes through) solves maybe 90-95% of the issue. Here's more---> Since you like Talon grip tape....get a rectangular piece...and cover the exposed hole where the pinch occurs ( just ahead of the trigger where you filed), and if you size the Talon material right.....you can get some of the material to come "up" on both of the frame "sides", stopping just short of the slide.....to act as a thumb rest area for your support hand. Works really well to get rid of the last 5-10% finger pinch irritation.
Love Hickok 45. What a great presenter and talented shot
Very glad to see you're still making these awesome videos.
I've been carrying this little pistol for over a year now, and I absolutely love it!
Went and bought the Ruger LCP Max today. Took it home and cleaned it up and oiled it .can't wait to shoot it this weekend.
Picked up mine mid-July... I LOVE IT!
I was seriously thinking LCPII, they are a bit skinny in the hand but appealing none the less. I am glad I waited long enough for this come out! The grip is wider, and fits my hand, and several others I have show this too, very nicely.
I have managed to put a total of 300 rounds through it during 2 different outings, and yes I had to break into my back stock but it is worth it, and I am very happy with its performance.
I have ran Round Nose FMJ's, Flat Nose FMJ's & Jacketed Hollow Points, through it with no issues. Even when mixed in the same mag!
The 10 round mag is supplied with a flush mount base plate, I did swap it out for the supplied finger rest base plate and it works just perfectly for me!
Reference the somewhat common compliant about the slide not locking back. I too had that happen while dry firing it, however, live fire has NEVER failed to lock back on the last round!
I wear Wrangler jeans pretty much always, and the front right pocket works for carry, its comfortable while I am in a vehicle, or at my desk. I forget its there when I'm at the grocery store ect.
Empty weight, with holster, is 11.68 oz. Add the 10 + 1 rounds, I see 15.34 oz on my digital kitchen scale.
I'm thinking I will get a 12 round mag later on, but frankly the 10 round fits my needs well!
Follow-Up... So I have been pocket carrying this beauty for about 18 months now. I have put over 800 rounds through it. I now use the 12 round mag full time, with the 10 round mag as back-up.
Again, empty weight, with the factory pocket holster, is 11.68 oz. Add the 10 + 1 rounds, I see 15.38 oz on my digital kitchen scale. With the 12 + 1 configuration and factory holster, I see 16.08 oz.
Late last year, I picked up a nifty little OWB holster from Tactical Scorpion Gear, TSG-LCP2-2 (option 2), it's for the LCPII, and the LCP Max fits in this awesome holster perfectly! The supplied, "tuck-it-in" style paddle is a bit difficult for me, but the belt attachment works flawlessly! I dont OWB the pistol often, but when I do this one is perfect!
I have also replaced the stock pocket holster, back in June (2022), with one from Galco, PRO836B, and absolutely love this holster! With the 12 + 1 configuration, and this holster, I see 16.47 oz. Should have done it long ago!
For pocket carry, I still believe that this pistol is the best option out there!
I would hate to be the wrong one to mess with Hickok45, he only needs 1+1 with that accuracy lol
Watching the video during breakfast. I have the Max and I carry everywhere. It's light and comfortable with whatever your wearing. Good video
Great video very informative, I’ve been enjoying watching your educational video over the last four years now
I carried the original LCP daily for years, then I picked up a LCP II…. Then to my pleasure, I found the LCP Max. Needless to say I love my LCPs. They are small and light enough to go everywhere I go.
Love mine great groups every time & no failures!
can't ask for more at this price point
I recently purchased an LCP MAX and have the opposite problem most owners probably have. My hands are too small to reach and activate the mag release. Other than that, I really like the firearm, and purchased two 12 round magazines. I enjoy your program and watch it whenever time permits.
Great review ❗️
I carry the LCP 2 everywhere in my pocket. Shorts, jeans, whatever.
This year I’m planning on getting the LCP Max.
Watching this review in June 2024 - two years from now😃
The LCP II in .380 is currently my favorite pocket pistol. I can’t wait to pick one of these up I have a feeling it’s going to be my new favorite!
Only of you like easily shootable guns, with sights you can actually use quickly, with decent capacity. If you fit all those qualifiers, then yes, you'll love this little beauty🙃
This is my current edc, found one at Bass Pro a couple days after it released. Wasn't a fan of the LCP2, but the wider grip on the Max makes it a much nicer gun to shoot for me. Swapped out the sights for truglo 3 dot night sights, added a crimson trace flashlight, and pocket carry it in a SM-4 sticky holster. The flashlight helps to square up the gun so if it prints it just looks like a wallet or phone. I can hold decent groups with it out to 15 yards.
Hi, witch crimson trace light model did you purchase ?

@@jovanigonzalez6949 biggest complaint is that the on/off button is really easy to activate while it's in your pocket if you use a soft holster, which kills the batteries very quickly. I've since removed the light and switched to a kydex pocket holster.
@@TheJankoid Thank you for the heads up !
I just purchased the max for my wife. She was rear ended by a guy I know is a criminal and kept coming up to the car. I work in a warehouse mostly by myself. I’ll be purchasing another for myself. I appreciate your video. It made feel better about the purchase.
Honestly haven't been watching lately as much as I did when I was new to firearms. But picked this max up in Goodlettsville for a good price . Came to old Hickok45 for his opinion on my latest pocket carry
I have one , price point $400.00 Fits in my jeans perfectly, I don't even know it's there. Shoots nicely, mag releases left handed friendly . Love it and I carry it !🤗
The LCP max is a great pocket gun that is reliable and the U shaped sites are similar to my Hellcat. I can get on target quick.
I would recommend Federal punch ammo for self defense.
It is designed for smaller barrels.
1000 ftp from a 3.75 in barrel.
This little gun is accurate point and shoot as well as aim and shoot very easy to conceal doesn't weight you down ,
Ruger provides a sticky holster when I purchased my LCP 380 comes with2 magazine, I bought a 12rnd. Magazine and 2 pinky extensions, no problem concealing in my pocket ,great little gun. l
Watching the video 2 years later. Considering the Max for my collection. Thanks for the video.
I just picked up an LCP Max today. Feels really good in my hand. I can’t wait to shoot it. Got to pick up a few extra mags and I’ll be good to go.
I had a Promag 10 round for the household LCP (original version) and could NEVER get it to function well. The Ruger 6 round mags are very reliable.
I added a Hogue grip to the LCP and found it much easier to shoot. LCP is our summer pocket carry.
If I were to buy another pocket carry 380 I would consider the LCP MAX.
I bought the 12 round magazine for my LCP Max and it runs flawlessly without any hang ups. 13 rounds in such a small package is awesome.
Lol when Hickok is walking around you hear brass on the gravel.
Love the videos, thanks for this one, have considered this gun, but I prefer 9mm to 380 so I don't have to keep another ammo in stock.
Thanks, Hickok45. I've been looking for something like this. Glad it passed your test.
Literally just bought one! So impressed. Thanks for the video.
Great review, ordered one of these and will pocket carry as my EDC, the capacity is what attracted me and of course the Ruger name.
I've watched plenty of Hickok45 videos at breakfast. No better way to start the day.
