You know what I mean. The term assault weapon is a joke. I could "assault" someone with this Ruger

How much? Is there a firing range there? I was looking at getting this gun for my girl.

I was listening to the interview, the owner was referring to the AR-15's as "assault weapons" or assault rifles

No range. This gun was $370 with laser, $320 with out.

Why did you get the laser sight? Something with a short barrel like that isn't very accurate past 25 ft or so.

I don't think the photo helps. The size of the bullet is considerably larger.

But, FWIW, ammo advancement has resulted in 380 rounds that are at least somewhat suitable for self defense. I carry a LCP at times too.

Lol at people saying a .380 doesn't has any knock down power

Let me put a round in someone's thigh and lets what it does to that femur bone

IMO the laser is pointless. And for those saying it is hard to shoot, practice more. I'm decent with mine at 12-15 yards. The whole magazine at tht distance I can cover with my hand.

It's not hard to shoot, just compared to other pistols, it's a POS

Xtreme Shock 380 ammo is a game changer.

Nice choice. My next gun will be a .380 (I like the colt mustang) or small 9mm. I really want a pocket pistol.

Currently carry .40 S&W M&P Compact which is a great gun but somtimes I wish it was smaller

I like my LCP. I can consistently hit a 3" circle with it from 20'. The included Ruger pocket holder is safe and looks like a cell phone in ur pocket. Only complaint with mine was I had to have it repaired. When racked with one in the chamber the slide it real loose and got to the point where after one shot it would jam every time. It has always been loose and still is after being fixed. But size and caliber are perfect.
