I bought a Ruger LCP (lightweight compact pistol) 380. It is small and lightweight, and good for CC. Fits nicely into a pocket or pocket holster, and with loose-fitting jeans you can hardly tell that it is there. When I took it to the range to fire, I found out it is NOT fun to fire. I shot two rounds and my son shot two, and neither of us really wanted to shoot anymore. It packs a kick similar to my Ruger 9mm, but in that small frame it is uncomfortable to shoot, bordering on painful. That means I will not get much practice with it at the range. So even though it is a nice size for CC and packs a wallop, mine will only be good for very short range, or a "rib-sticker" as a friend called it. Anyone else have experience with this handgun?
