Ruger LCP Gen 1 .380 ACP with Factory Viridian E-Series Red Laser, 2.75" Barrel, 6+1 Capacity
This first-generation Ruger LCP pairs the company’s proven micro-compact .380 ACP platform with a factory-bundled Viridian E-Series red laser, giving buyers a ready-to-carry defensive pistol that adds fast target acquisition without extra bulk. Produced in 2017 (serial prefix 371) and weighing roughly 10.4 oz unloaded with the laser attached, it delivers pocket-size concealability while retaining the durable alloy-steel slide and glass-filled nylon frame that define the LCP line.

The factory laser upgrade is integral to this package. Mounted beneath the barrel, the Viridian E-Series unit activates with an ambidextrous on/off switch and projects a bright red aiming dot for rapid alignment in low-light settings.
Ruger’s double-action-only, internal-hammer system keeps the slide slim and snag-free while providing consistent trigger pulls. The integral fixed sights are cut directly into the slide, maintaining a low profile for pocket carry.
The 2.75" alloy-steel barrel and 6+1 capacity strike a balance between concealability and shootability. Ruger’s glass-filled nylon frame resists wear, and the black oxide blued slide finish offers corrosion protection for everyday carry.
This VL-marked variant (catalog number 03752) remains in Ruger’s lineup even after the introduction of later LCP models, making it a straightforward choice for those who prefer the original design with the added benefit of a factory laser.
