I would buy something P365XL-sized in 9mm with the LCP Custom fire control system.

Not another dime.
Wow. Only heavier by the ammo weight. This is a winner. No more deciding on eleven rounds of .22 or seven of .380 for pocket.

I'm not going down the debate rabbit hole regarding candidates for our next president in 2024, but I am truly and completely tired of this particular asshole.

This dims my irrational desire for a G42 and threatens to tip the scale over my 642.
Well, thank goodness I didn't run out and buy that blue label G42 yesterday!
A more corrosion-resistant finish would have made it the potential ultimate pocket gun. Actually, if they work then it probably will still be the ultimate pocket gun.....

I bet Ruger sells a lot of these and expect my local smith to be Cerakoting a lot of slides. I am not in the market, but this one looks to be another winner for Ruger. There are a lot of LCP and LCP II pistols in pockets in my neck of the woods, and it appears there will be a lot more.
I took my postal scale and weighed a few micro guns fully loaded to see how they compared. Here is what I found:
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 Double Tap 95gr JHP 13.1 oz.
Ruger LCP-MAX w/ flush magazine / 11 rounds of CCI 95gr. FMJ 14.6 oz.
The LCP-MAX shoots much softer than the original LCP or LCP II. Only 1.5 oz. heavier fully loaded than the LCP II. The sights are fantastic. Ruger did everything right on this one.
