This review will focus on the differences between the two versions of the LCP. Fortunately, the trigger pull is adjustable and shootability can be improved with practice.

The basic LCP rifle features a long, heavy double-action trigger pull. Ruger also incorporated improvements to the trigger pull and sights. This redesigned model is lightweight, thin through the grip, and delivers brisk recoil. Ruger redesigned the LCP rifle with many changes. A pistol grip is a common option for this gun, but not required. A pistol grip pattern is also a nice touch, and the Ruger LCP has a wide, rounded face to prevent the trigger finger from being pinched. The trigger is easy to operate and does not pinch the finger as some smaller auto triggers can.

The Ruger LCP features a heavy slide with serrations on the rear.

A single-strike trigger needs a slide cycle to reset the hammer and half as much effort to rack. The trigger is a single-action with an internal hammer and is classified as a single action trigger. The Diameter of the Ruger LCP trigger pull is 1.08 inches and features a slightly longer take-up than the P32. As such, the LCP is not suitable for second-strike shooters, and it requires about half the effort to rack it. However, the trigger is a single-action, and the internal hammer is set after a slide cycle. This trigger is one of the smoothest I’ve shot with, and I really appreciate its clean break and short reset. The Ruger LCP trigger has a long, 0.75-inch pull, with firm stacking on the last 0.5-inches. The following are some tips to make the trigger pull shorter on your Ruger LCP. Thankfully, Ruger has made the trigger pull of the LCP II shorter than it was with the original model. Its small size makes it difficult to grip. The original LCP is not the easiest handgun to grip. Ruger has attempted to fix many of these problems with its LCP II pistol.
