I'm now the owner of the LCP II 22lr. Was at a gunshow last weekend and in the very last aisle there was someone selling a bunch of handguns including the LCP 22. Handled it and definitely liked how easy the slide action is compared to my LCP II .380 version. Other than the lighter slide and a safety, it is almost identical to 380. I've been carrying the 380 as a pocket pistol for a year or two and really like the size of it and it shoots quite well for being tiny. Anyway, guy at show had a very good price so I bought it on the spot. While sitting there doing the paperwork I asked the guy how the show was going as it looked to be tons of people. He said he's only sold 2 firearms today and mine was the 2nd LCP 22. He said he didn't think that item would even really sell so he only ordered two and both were now gone. Here's a pic of my 22 pistols now. NAA Black Widow in 22LR, LCP II 22LR, and Smith & Wesson Compact 22LR. Probably going to sell the Smith as I don't ever really use it and now with the Ruger I don't see when I would again.

I ran eleven rounds through one a couple days ago. There were no bobbles with the feed, function or firing. Accuracy was certainly good enough for the intended purpose. (Or at least what I think is the pistol's intended purpose.) I did notice that the pistol I shot seemed to shoot just a fuzz to the right, say, 3/4" or so from the spot I was aiming at. I was shooting from 10 yards, and was able to keep the 11 rounds in a 2 inch circle. I predict Ruger will be selling these guns for many years to come.

You stopped at 11? Guessing not yours? Regardless, that's 11 more than me.
Also guessing they will sell a bunch, especially once the price drops sub $300.
The only internet complaint I've heard is light primer strikers. Guess I will find out next week after a few hundred.

That was about the only deal I saw - everything else there seemed to be priced by guys that don't know the Internet exists. Been busy so haven't had a chance to shoot mine yet, but should be able to do so in a couple days and will report if I get light strikes.

Great price and double great from a gun show.
MSRP is $349 and most retailers seem to be $309-$329. Also most do not have them in stock. Ordered mine through Sportman's Warehouse.

Original owner had fired it and said he had experienced malfunctions. When he left, I loaded it with a handful of mixed 22 LR and zipped through a loaded mag +1 round for the pipe. Said customer frequently has operator induced issues with firearms. Nice guy, though.

Maybe I’ll finally have time to try mine out next weekend. Plan to feed it a steady dose of CCI Stingers.

Put about 25 mags through the lcp and with a few different flavors today. I had one FTE and the only light primer strikers were all with stingers. The fixed sights were very close to point of aim at 15 yards My only complaint is the safety is easy to inadvertently engage; happened 4 or 5 times.
