The Ruger LCP MAX delivers maximum capacity in an ultra-compact 380 ACP platform, featuring a slim profile that conceals easily while providing serious firepower. This micro-compact pistol redefines pocket carry with its innovative 10+1 capacity in a frame barely larger than the original LCP.
What Makes This Different
The LCP MAX achieves remarkable capacity density through Ruger's engineering breakthrough that fits 10 rounds of 380 ACP into a pistol measuring just 0.9 inches wide. Unlike traditional micro pistols limited to 6-7 rounds, this design maximizes defensive capability without compromising concealability. The tritium front sight and integral rear sight provide rapid target acquisition in low-light conditions.
Key Features
- 10+1 round capacity in 380 ACP with flush-fitting magazine
- Ultra-slim 0.9-inch width for deep concealment carry
- Tritium front sight with integral rear sight for fast acquisition
- Textured grip frame with finger grip extension for positive control
- Single-action trigger with safety blade and internal safeties
- Rugged glass-filled nylon frame with through-hardened steel slide

Field performance demonstrates reliable cycling with various 380 ACP loads from 90-grain FMJ to 102-grain hollow points. The 2.8-inch barrel generates sufficient velocity for effective expansion with premium defensive ammunition. Recoil management remains controllable despite the lightweight 10.6-ounce loaded weight, enabling accurate follow-up shots during rapid fire sequences.
