LCP .22 reliability?

[Jmoser]

Have the .380 and really like the idea of a micro .22 pocket pistol for hiking etc.
Anyone have current feedback on ammo reliability? Have plenty minimags but prefer cheaper bulk ammo for range practice.

Upgraded my Gen 1 LCP with the 'Elsie Pea' trigger way back - do all the new LCPs have the improved factory trigger?
Academy had the trigger lock on and I didn't want to ask to dry fire in the store . . .

I have one, and I’ve put several hundred rounds through it. That little mouse gun with Velocitors or Stingers in it is absolutely a viable carry gun. And 2 spare mags in one pocket weigh less than the loaded pistol in the other, and you’ll have 30+1 rounds.

It really never has been ammo picky, either. Even cycled the cheap American Eagle stuff, and Remington Golden Bullets

The one I had wasn’t ammo picky and seemed reliable for the little bit I shot it. For a few ounces more I just had better carry options

Thx folks - deciding now to grab one or wait for possible Black Friday deals . . . it will be a nice option vs my 317 Airweight !

Look at the Keltec P17. A little larger but holds quite a few more rounds.

LCP is all about smallest possible package for my needs.

I had one and absolutely loved it but then stupidly sold it to a friend I used to work with cause she needed something with next to no recoil. She loves it
