Weights for comparison.

380 Max with mag and 10 + 1 of 90 gr ammo 14.8 ounces.

P365 with mag and 10 + 1 of 115 gr ammo 23.2 ounces.

That's not an insignificant difference. Out of curiosity, how does that compare to a 442 with wadcutters?

This is what I came up with on my postal scale

S&W 442 w/ Crimson Trace boot grips / 5 rounds of Speer 135gr. Gold Dot 17 oz.

Glock 43 w/ flush magazine / 7 rounds of Federal 147gr HST 21.6 oz.

Sig P365 w/ pinky extension magazine / 11 rounds of Federal 147gr HST 23.8 oz.

Ruger LCPII w/ flush magazine / 7 rounds of CCI 95gr FMJ 13.1 oz.

Ruger LCP-MAX w/ flush magazine / 11 rounds of CCI 95gr. FMJ 14.6 oz.

Sounds like the LCP Max would make decent little ankle BUG. Under a pound fully loaded.

Fully loaded with 11 rounds, it weighs about what a 642/442 weighs unloaded.

Yep. Confirmed that pistol locks open as it should under live fire.

Only shot twenty rounds but zero issues other than losing a half dozen pieces of brass.

I’ve put around 50 ball and 75 XTP’s through my Max. 10 yard plate rack at speed is great. Yesterday I started with XTP’s and had two separate failures on the second round, one where slide didn’t close, the other a failure to extract where the slide closed fully but on a spent case. Thereafter no problems. Shoots well, am impressed. DPC was a scorcher yesterday!

I have just over 200 rounds through my LCPMAX (2) 12rd mags and (1) 10rd mag ..mixed ammo FMJ RN & FN ..LRN and XTP … it is a carry gun now … actually primary on vacation this week … ..

I have been thinking about this gun a lot but have yet to handle one. I need to get one. It seems like a great pocket carry solution.
