Broke down and bought a pocket gun. Took to the range the other day for first trail. No FTF or jams. Very accurate for tiny little thing. I have had it in my pocket all day for 5 days, you forget its there. Only problem I had at range was magazine dropping. Not out, but down and not picking up next round. The LCP forum had some thoughts but I was wondering if anyone here had same issue. My hands are medium/big and I may be hitting release. Need more range time.
 
I had one and it was a great gun for the money. I carried it for a long time until the new S&W Bodyguard came out. I might have kept the LCP and bought the S&W straight out had the wife not lost her job and had to take one that paid $3.00 less an hr.

Don't forget to buy yourself a pocket holster for it. It helps to keep it oriented in the right position and protects it from pocket lint. Take it out, strip it and wipe it down at least once a month. Even with the pocket holster you may be surprised at the build up you find in it from time to time. :)

The mag dropping is probably due to the way you hold it. You might want to get some finger extensions. It helped me to be able to get 2 fingers on the grip instead of just one. It should give you enough surface area to help you adjust your grip so that you don't tag the release when you fire it. Plus it will held temendously with muzzle flip.
