Agreed. If you plan on shooting several thousand rounds per month, do this so you will not have to worry about the mags failing in several years from now if you use them for carry.

Also, every 6 months rotate the carry ammunition with new ammunition. Just to be certain no oils got in the primers.

One more thing-- for those of you looking for Sig P938 Magazines the Springfield Armory 911 magazines are exactly the same and 1/2 the price ($26.99 at the Springfield Armory website). I tested them yesterday and they functioned flawlessly.

Here is a stretch, I just purchased a Kimber micro 9 and had nothing but problems with the Kimber magazines. I purchased a Sig 938 magazine and with some very small modifications to the plastic pinky rest it fits perfectly and had no issues. The Springfield 911 9mm looks identical to the Sig. Wonder if it fits the Kimber??

100% The springs will last an eternity for almost all shooters. The ammo not so much.

I went yesterday to my LGS to put a LCP Max in my hand. After reading all the issues this model is having and feeling the trigger I have decided to keep looking. The LCP 2 had a better trigger, for some reason I think they are the same but it felt different. If anything I'm considering the LCP2 (leftover in .380). Looking into the Kahn CW380 or the Glock G42.

I just came across these used from Summit. Not a bad deal for $180.

great deal but the trigger on the Lcp 2 is significantly better and worth the extra coin

I’m sure. Just figured that I’d throw it out there.

glock 42 is a great gun…..Medford shooting range has one you can rent

the sig p365-380 is about the same size, better grips, 10 round capacity, night sites, optics ready, and has slightly less recoil then the 42 when I shoot them back to back. Plus you can put a full size grip on the sig for even more recoil control

I also enjoyed shooting the S&W EZ 380 too, it’s a lot smaller then what you see in the pics

Great deal, I had one in the past and sold it. My bad

I just looked at the website- SUMMITGUNBROKER—

The prices seem too low- does anyone know if this is a legitimate site? I want to make sure no one sends credit card information if there is a possibility of fraud.

They’re legit and great to deal with. I’ve purchased from them before and they sell a lot on GB too.

I would recommend the Kahr P380, I watched Hickok45 do a review. I purchased the Black Diamond model with Trijicon night sights. Very accurate and reliable using the XTP ammunition.

I was looking at a P380 just cant find anybody on LI that has anything in stock, especially Kahr's. I would like to out it in my hand first.

same here, all the local dealers have a sour taste with kahr…they got tired returning the guns to the manufacturers according to them….yet they get great reviews online

Those exact words came out of the mouth of the owner of my LGS yesterday. So I went back with intent to purchase the LCP2 and after a lot of back and fourth I decided on the Glock 42. It feels Better in my hand and the trigger is so much better than the LCP max and LCP 2. Let’s hope Glock worked out the bugs out of the gen 4.

good choice!…I never had an issue with the 42 once I learned to grip it right

I agree with the feel and trigger being better on the Glock. However, I had thre downsides with mine:

--it jammed A LOT.
--could never get a comfortable grip that would also allow for the last round hold open
--for its size and price, it should hold at least 10 rounds like the LCP Max.

so far about 150 rounds and zero issues. It’s a bit of a handful for us big guys with big meat hooks. Thanks for everyone’s input.

Glad to hear. Keep us posted.

I find if I put my pinky under the grip (unless you have a pinky extension), and the weak hand thumb against the takedown indentation. It helps stop the gun from leveraging under recoil
