What’s Included
- Ruger LCP Gen 1 .380 ACP pistol
- 1x 6-round steel single-stack magazine marked "MADE IN ITALY" with Ruger finger-rest extension basepad
The first-generation LCP configuration defines this pistol: very small integral sights, no external slide stop lever, and a micro footprint designed around a locked-breech, tilting-barrel mechanism. Dimensions are approximately 5.16 inches in overall length and 0.82 inches in width, with an unloaded weight of about 9.4 ounces.
Controls are streamlined with a left-side push-button magazine release and an internal hammer-fired action. A loaded chamber viewport offers a quick visual check without adding bulk. The slide includes rear serrations and integral fixed sights consistent with early LCP production.
The polymer frame is glass-filled nylon and features a one-piece grip frame with molded checkering and small Ruger phoenix medallion discs inset in the grip. The slide is marked "RUGER - PRESCOTT - AZ - USA," and the serial number plate is located on the left side of the frame. Magazine witness holes are numbered 2–6, matching the included 6-round magazine for a 6+1 capacity.
This example dates to 2009 and represents the original LCP pattern in .380 ACP. The 2.75-inch steel barrel and fixed-sight arrangement reflect the compact, purpose-built nature of the early model.
