Broke down and purchased a "Pocket Rocket" today.
« on: May 31, 2012, 01:54:18 PM »
I've always carried mid or full sized handguns for concealed carry. Today I decided to pick up a better than nothing "SISSY" Ruger LCP .380 to stuff in a pocket.  The laser holds zero excellent, very accurate will ball and self defense ammo. It will also fit the bill for a sock pistol. :chuckle:

Nice choice. I've carefully considered one of those myself. That would be a great carry gun. But, I just made a bid on a Rock River 458 SOCOM. Oh, how much out the door if I may ask ?
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I've been carrying mouse guns for a while now, did you get a holster for it?

This guy make pretty decent pocket holsters.

The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

Yes!

Nooo...............................................

Here I was, clicking another post of B-Hammers. I take a look and lo and behold....I have that same gun. Yes. Finally I have something that is cool enough for this mans gun safe. Then........reality. I don't have cool green zombie ammo nor does mine have the cool laser sights. Once again............I fall short.

Hey hammer...........hows the grass? Get it greened up a bit?

It really is a slick little gun. I would like to add the laser at a later date. That ammo is also some good stuff. It will be a nasty little round if ever put to use.

My grass sucks!!! It hates me, your lawn is much greener, fuller and well groomed. I don't think it will ever be firearm background photo material EVER!

It is on the top of the list for the new place I'm building. :tup:

Lady Buckmark carries the same gun, only in the "rasberry".
Funky trigger pull if you have big hands and long fingers...
Nice guns
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

As usual Biggerhammer you have excellent choice.  It would be a challenge keeping up with you in a arms race.

 :bash: I have an LCP minus the Crimson Trace too. I've been thinking about the LaserLyte, $100 price point, and not as bulky. Is anybody using one? Opinions?

Nice looking piece by the way...  :tup:

Think that's one of the LaserMax sights rather than Crimson Trace.

It maybe a SISSY .380, but I would not want to be in the receiving end of it, or any caliber.,
