I have so many things in my daily bag that are considered weapons/not allowed on a plane that I just bring an entirely different bag that I pack for the trip when I fly to avoid any issues.
I used to have an LCP but I did not find it reliable enough to trust my life to. I am exploring other micro pocket carry options because I had kind of written that whole idea off a while ago and not considered it again until now.
My first LCP that I bought in Jan 2010 had a couple issues during a 100 round break-in, but was dead reliable after that until it locked up this summer somewhere around the 1300 round mark. It was wildly inaccurate though, which didn't bother me as everyone else on gun forums said their LCP's weren't accurate either. And I'll admit it was picky about hollowpoint ammo. I sent the locked up LCP to Ruger and they send me a brand new LCP a couple weeks later, no charge. This one didn't need a break-in and has had 400 successful rounds put through it and has eaten every type of hollow point I've put through it. And it's accuracy has actually impressed me, with better sights I think it'd outshoot my buddy's Kahr P380. I don't know what's different but I really like this new LCP (gen 1). Maybe your experience has ruined ever trusting an LCP, but my experience has been the opposite.
