My LCP was reliable from day 1. I had 1 ftf in the second mag fired and perfect after that. Personally, I'd call Ruger.

Mine had failures to feed until I installed a heavier wolff recoil spring. Never had failures to extract or eject. I would call ruger.

I've never had an issue -- from day 1 -- with either of my Elsie Peas. Call Ruger.

As with any machine, some run 100%, some are a mechanical piece of shit.
Many on this board have had good results with theirs. Mine has been horrible. It may be the throat but it'll reliable fail to feed after about 5 rounds and requires a thorough cleaning to make it function again. I Wolff heavy spring helps some but by only a round or two. Also, the rearmost trigger group pin has left a permanent scar on my thumb knuckle (the thumb joint closest to the webbing of your hand). I pushed the pin to the right which helped some but the edges of the frame where it pin goes still cuts me every time (circled in RED). 
I could send it in to Ruger and maybe they'll fix the loading issue, but there is nothing they can do about the frame cutting my thumb. So, why do I still have and carry it? I have sciatica and other lower back problems so carrying anything larger IWB is painful. I'd get something new in a heartbeat but to date, I haven't found anything better size wise. I had a Shield but even that I needed to carry OWB. |

Mine too has been 100% since day 1. When I got it I oiled the crap out if it and shot 2 boxes. All 100%. Cleaned and lubed for carry and has been great since.

Mine never bites, never scratches, never fails and never complains. It has been 100% with all ammo since I got it about 2 years ago....<><....:)

Fuck that. The thing should work right with factory springs and not need anything but shooting. Send it to Ruger or sell it. Like I said and many others as well, they work well from the box, if they don't make Ruger fix it.

My lcp gotta be lubed! Since mine Is shot so infrequent I use hopps grease, cause standard oil just dries out. If mine is dry she will fail to eject here or there, especially with steel ammo. Mine is modded with sweet pea trigger, trigger and recoil springs swapped. And ct gaurd.
And my lcp also tears the skin off my thumb knuckle. But I can't fit any of my far better and more tacticool pistols in my pocket of my light weight Florida clothing. |

Mine has work since day one. I put 500 rounds through my guns before I use them for ccw. I also have a SR9 with 2000 rounds never an issue. Like some have said. I would call Ruger. No need to fix something that should work right out of the box.
Just my 2 cents. |

Mine had about 1 failure every other mag right up until round 175. After that it's been perfect, even when dry.

Mine's been 100% strait out of the box. Pocket carried it today as a BUG. I'm impressed with it.
