U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE-RGR) is proud to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the LCP by releasing a Limited Edition pistol to mark the occasion. Owed to its size, weight and reliability, Ruger’s Lightweight Compact Pistol has become the preferred backup gun for law enforcement and an everyday carry companion for countless law-abiding Americans.

10 years after its introduction, the LCP is still the perfect choice for personal protection. This Limited Edition anniversary pistol features a stainless steel slide with custom forward serrations, an aluminum skeletonized trigger and special “Tenth Anniversary” laser engraving.

Not much larger than a modern smartphone and less than 1” wide, the LCP provides many concealed carry options while offering 6+1 of capacity in the popular .380 Auto caliber. The high-performance, glass-ﬁlled nylon grip frame is checkered for a secure grip, while the included finger grip extension floorplate may be added to the magazine to accommodate larger hand sizes and provide increased grip area. Fixed sights integral to the slide and a recessed hammer provide confidence when drawing the LCP from a pocket holster.
