Back when I decided I wanted a pocket 380. I looked at the LCP and the TCP. I picked the TCP. Why?
1. Better trigger
2. Last round slide hold open
3. Handled recoil better
4. Better sights
5. It looked better
I'm happy to say that Ruger fixed the problems with the LCP II. It now has:
1. A better trigger
2. Last round hold open
3. Added thickness to the grip, so it handles recoil better
4. Better sights
5. The jury is still out on better looking, but it kind of grows on you.
One issue I had with the TCP was it would occasionally lock open with rounds still in the magazine. I believe my thumb was hitting the slide catch during recoil. The slide catch is not near the thumb on the Ruger so this can not be a problem. Just wish the LCP II came with 2 magazines (or 3
)
