I test-fired a guy's LCP at the range the other day, thinking I might like to buy one.
I was not impressed. Even with the extended floorplate mag, I was still having a hard time controlling the gun. It tended to jump and rotate in my hand such that the support hand was more or less tossed of the firing hand, and the trigger guard was slamming into the bottom of my trigger finger.
Does this gun benefit from something like a Hogue slip-on grip, with the finger grooves? Or is the extra "grabby bit" not especially helpful?
I like the idea of the LCP, even though I can't stand that DAO trigger travel, but it's a defensive gun, not a range toy. If it can be made more controllable, I'd be willing to reconsider my decision to not buy one.
