LCP vs LCPII

[Wildbillz]

Hi All
So I carried a standard LCP for years. Not an easy gun to shoot well but supper easy to just drop in the pocket. Recently I went to the LCP Max. Sights are better, trigger is better and its way easier to shoot. Question I have is dose the LCP II have the same upgrades as the Max but just the 6 round mag cap? I know the frame is different on the LCP and the LCP II.

I have an lcp, lcp2 and lcp max. Both are more shootable than the lcp. IMO it is mostly the better trigger. I have one kydex iwb holster that fit the 2 and the max perfectly so the primary difference is the grip and mag capacity. That said the max fills the hand better and I would feel more confident with it in a SD situation but at the range I shoot the 2 and max identically. Now the downside - I will not pocket carry the 2 or the max without the ruger provided sleaves. I would pocket carry the original Without it. The newer ones are half cocked and would be easier to have an ND.
