I'd like this gun to be versatile as a back up gun, able to be carried on an ankle holster, possibly be a pocket pistol, but also be reliable.
Anyone own an LCP or an LC9? I know a dealer in town that I can buy the LCP for $290 NIB. I'm thinking about picking up a back up gun, but I'm torn between a few options.
As far as the LCP goes, I love it's small size, perfect pocket pistol, but I'm not sure I trust .380 as a self defense round, .380 seems to be a little bit more expensive, and it doesn't have a manual safety. As a pocket pistol, that worries me.
I like the LC9, though it's a little bit more expensive, I haven't heard a single negative thing about it. Accurate, lots of nice features, including the fact it's only an inch bigger in height and length compared to the LCP, but for 9mm, it only has a 7 round magazine.
I'm also considering a snub nosed .357, but I can't seem to find one for a decent price.
Any suggestions?
