Lol! Count me as one very happy Ruger beta tester I guess.
I have, in various calibers, Colts, Smiths, Rugers, a Glock, a Taurus and even a couple of Hi-Points sitting in the safe. I'm not a total fanboi of any brand. I buy what I want to buy and shoot. If they fail to function, they hit the road.
There are 3 LCPs in the family, all 370s that had to go back for the recall.
They all shot fine before the recall, they still shoot fine after getting the diamond.
I did have some trouble with MagTech .380 and the Rem Green Box 88gr HP. Both of these had feed issues in the gun. Everything else runs fine through them. All three well past 500 rounds each. Carry ammo is Corbon DPX although I used Golden Sabers earlier and still would.
So buy one or don't. Makes me no diff; I've already decided that they are really nice little carry pistols.
BTW, I know I'll incense a few folks but I really like my Taurus PT-1911 too. Heck of a pistol for what I paid which was about $425 for a new blue. Gave that to my son because he wanted one and picked up a stainless I wanted for just under $600.
Moral of the story is buy what you want to shoot then shoot it a lot. If it doesn't suit you, somebody will take it off your hands.
Bet I could sell my LCP in a heartbeat, but I won't.
