Got mine 2 days after it was announced. Took it too the range and ran 50 rounds flawless, decent grouping at 7 yards with Remington 95gr fmj. I have had every model of the lcp and this one is just amazing, fits all my holsters but has real quality sights a decent trigger and a real grip!
Yesterday my 12round extended mag came in the mail, I will say im a bit disappointed that it seems to just be a basepad and ruger isnt offering jus the basepad. It genuinely doesn't effect concealment IMO. Went back to the range and ran another 50 flawless rounds with the 12 round mag ( full until the last mag no issues full or under full)
If you love 380 for light carry in summer or other reasons do not sleep on the LCP MAX, I truly love it and think it will remain my main edc for many years to come.

I found one at Academy last week and bought it. It will replace my old original LCP. Haven't shot it yet but the size difference for the extra capacity is minimal. Seems like a great upgrade.
I give Sig the credit for the added capacity. They figured it out first with the P365.

Handled one and almost bought last week....I have the LCP 2 and might end up grabbing the Max as well. Good looking little pistol and the sights seemed much better.

My coworker bought the max9 I got to shoot it the other day, I’ll be buying one at some point these max lines ruger has come out with are excellent hard to beat for the price point definitely swinging outside of the average

I give Sig the credit for the added capacity. They figured it out first with the P365. Indeed sig did, I had an early 365 and I loved it except one thing. When I shot it I got a lot of burnt powder on my trigger finger. I have heard they got better but tbh I prefer a small 380 for carry.

Don't think mine was from the first batch though. Great gun that I try to carry as much as possible but with the LCP line, there is just no reason not to carry. You can conceal it easy no matter what you're wearing.

I will have to check it out not a real big fan of my LCP Me either - I have the Kel-Tec P-3AT which I almost never carry. Would like something smaller than my Shield at times.

I love my LCP gen 1 with a Crimson Trace and factory 7 + 1 magazine/capacity. Super accurate and has never let me down. Another few rounds would be cool with the max. Staying put for now but will continue reading the reviews.
