Have you tried it in other guns. I got a box of herters fir free in a trade and it was the worst smmo I’d ever had. It gave many of my 22 problems.Mine will not work with Herter’s

Owning both the 22lr and 380 versions of the LCP II I can agree the 22lr version is easier to shoot accurately. But I do find the 380 to be fairly accurate at least at the 7 yard line. To shoot well with the 380 I have to have the magazine finger extension and have an very firm grip. The 380 has been 100% reliable thus far where the 22 has had a few malfunctions every once in a while. CCI Mini Mags work very well in it.My initial impressions are that the LCP in 22 will be a far superior pocket gun for me over its bigger brother. It was extremely accurate at 15 feet. The follow up shots were quick, and most importantly it was a blast to shoot. Whereas, every LCP 380 ive had I couldn't hit the side of a barn, and was an absolute miserable shooting experience. Not to mention the price of ammo. If the gun continues to perform in this fashion, I'll be a happy camper.
Unfortunately they do not come with a rail. Maybe Ruger can add a rail to the LCP IIIThat's what I was thinking of when I made my comment.
Yeah, if I could shoot the LCP accurately, I would have no need for the same gun in 22lr. But after 6 or 7 LCP 380s, its clear to me that I'm the problem, not the gun. lolOwning both the 22lr and 380 versions of the LCP II I can agree the 22lr version is easier to shoot accurately.

A friend of mine shoots Remington sv in her lcp 2 22lr. It runs them fine. I would imagine CCI SV should too its better quality ammunition.Ok, I bit. I’ve wanted a mousegun that I could take literally anywhere for quite a while now and ithey probably don’t get much more “carryable” than this. I hope it runs OK on CCI SV because that’s all I’ve got, and a bunch of it. I’ll let you guys know.
Ok, back to the factory. 50 rounds of Blazer with only on fail. 50 rounds of Armscor with no fail. Tried Herter’s with one fail to eject after another. Then constant squibs. Ejector just not doing the job. Great phone call with Ruger customer service. They sent return authorization. So we’ll see what I get back. Hope it’s made well because I do love that little thing.100 rds of CCI Blazer, great...5 RDS of Herter’s, arggghhhh!
It will be great for your hands.I hope to get the opportunity to handle one soon. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis in both hands and struggled with my LCP II in .380, it was all me not the gun. In order to shoot it well I had to concentrate on hand placement as well as trigger finger position way to long. Went back to my shield in 9mm for pocket gun, it is about as small as I can shoot in quick pull point and shoot with any effectiveness. But a LCP II .22 will just be a range toy for me so it should be fun when one makes itself my way.
My friend's lcp2 22lr sight was the same way. She wanted something to brighten it up. I told her I had 3 colors for sight paint. White, red, green. She choose white. I cleaned and applied it, and told her to let it dry and cure for at least 24 hours. Now she really likes it and is hitting her target much better now.Not bad at all with the hard to see sights
Yeah I wish Ruger had made these with a white dot front sight. I know these are not target guns but my "old eyes" just don't see open sights well , especially all black pocket gun sights. I'll see how I do today with the LCP II "twins".My friend's lcp2 22lr sight was the same way. She wanted something to brighten it up. I told her I had 3 colors for sight paint. White, red, green.
