NEW FIREARMS & ACCESSORIES

We make every attempt to only preview new products when they are actually available on the market. This spares consumers from wasting time trying to locate an item to buy when it hasn't yet left the prototype phase. Please note that during SHOT Show (January of each year) manufacturers often announce new items that are several months from stores: we still announce these despite not being immediately available for purchase.

RUGER lcp ii in 22lr w/ lite rack. msrp:$349

1/4/2020

Albeit lite rack, online reviews report light strikes - the two may be connected. 22LR typically requires a stout hammer to ignite the primer so it could be the lightly sprung slide isn't allowing for precise breach closure...however, I'm certain Ruger will fix this issue in the coming months and this will be a top seller for them. This is something I actually spoke to Keltec about a few years back, a 22LR version of their P32 which is an excellent pistol and highly concealable, but they didn't seem interested in the idea and I think they've missed the boat here. Ruger just can't quit innovating and for that I respect them, profoundly. Now, I've been hoping they'll come up with a grip replacement with brace adapter, or a brace-ready-upper version of their MK IV to give shooters the chance to squeeze the maximum accuracy out that stellar weapon. This from the Ruger website:

  • With a patent-pending floorplate assembly, the magazine offers a very compact 10+1 capacity, extends the grip for improved control and retains the LCP® IIs popular last-round hold open function.
  • Manual safety is oriented in a push-forward-to-fire configuration that is instinctive and unobtrusive.
  • Compact and lightweight, the LCP® II is designed to fit a variety of holsters.
