Went into a retail gun shop and bought a brand new gun. Mostly I am interested in older stuff so this was rare.
Gave away my old 380 to my wife's friend who expressed a desire to obtain a pistol. I wanted to replace it with one of the new super compact models. Looked at the Ruger LCP and really liked it but the salesman showed me the Taurus TCP (can you say rip off clone?) and it was $120 cheaper and had the slide lock after last shot feature lacking on the Ruger.
Well, I love the very compact size, but it only came with one magazine. Why do gun companies ship a new gun with one mag? That's crazy. Now I am trying to find another one and trying is the operative word.
They are online for $22-$25 but shipping is an additional $11-$12 and that irks me. No local shops have one. I guess I'll have to wait until January and try the gun show. Maybe some parts dealers will have them.
Anyway, I like the gun.
