What a difference a couple of years make

I ran across an ad for the Ruger LCP for $199. They sold in the $400 range for longer than anybody ever expected, until other gun manufacturers caught up with the demand for very small .380's and 9x19's. I waited over a year for that, and still paid $350 plus. I've moved on past that, with the availability of very small .45's and 9mm subcompacts, and rarely ever carry mine, but the LCP is a pretty good low end pocket pistol for those willing to bet their life on a .380 - certainly a heck of a lot more attractive at the correct price point.

I have carried it in the bib of my overalls - hardly noticeable, although I prefer to just stick a holster on a belt and strap it on under the overalls, with the XDs45 - also reasonably comfortable.
.25 acp, the Keltec is low end, I would not consider the Ruger as low end.
I remember someone climbing all over me when I stated the same as a new member many years ago!
He isn't wound quite so tight anymore...
