Ruger LCP Trigger Hack (sorta!)

[@TexasNEV]

..update, also this is a fool proof way to instantly tell if you are locked n loaded as well.. A very nice safety improvement for a pistol that has no manual safety!

This paint idea is genius, best idea, and video I have seen on the Ruger LCP, hands-down

[@TexasNEV]

Well thanx I appreciate that.. Especially since it costs zero. LOL

I have owned my LCP for 10 years. I replaced the take down pin with an aluminum one and got a 7+1 mag from Ruger. I have no problem with the heavy trigger. The longer mag gives me better grip so my accuracy improved.

[@LARRY-kp9xm]

wow you invented trigger staging

[@TexasNEV]

Yes, I call it "how to deal with a crap trigger using yellow paint"... LOL!!!

[@neiljohnson6815]

The LCP 2 is NOT striker fired. You're actually talking about the hammer.

[@TexasNEV]

Interesting, I thought for sure it was. Sure feels like it but thx for letting me know. :)

[@deucedeuce1572]

Anyone know if the LCP trigger has a lot of "creep" at all? My friend has one and when I pulled the trigger it wasn't smooth at al, but it was creaking as I pulled it (by feel, not making noise). Like instead of moving back perfectly smooth it would move in increments. It wasn't really bad or anything, but I really wonder if they're all like that or if there was something wrong with his gun specifically. Like, if I pull the trigger back slowly, it will go back in about 1/8" increments, kinda skipping along the way. As much as I dislike the SCCY CPX models triggers, they two that I pulled the triggers on were smooth like glass the entire length of pull... but the LCP was nothing like that.

[@TexasNEV]

It's entry level pocket carry.. Manage expectations. :) Mine doesn't have any creep, it's just way too heavy, hence the neat idea of the yellow lines. :)

[@LovedMyLoyalLongDog]

You are the man! Thanks for that.

[@TexasNEV]

Thx, simple but effective..

[@BaldGeek83]

What kind of paint did you use?

[@TexasNEV]

@BaldGeek83 It was just yellow model paint. 🙂

[@BaldGeek83]

@@TexasNEV Thanks!

[@gpat19]

Thanks for the video. This is a great hack. Gonna have to do it on mine

[@TexasNEV]

It helps... Not really a trigger hack but more of an indicator.

[@BenjaSariwatta]

Thank You

[@arch3088]

Cute trick for target practice I suppose. It could help you get the feel for the trigger but it is useless for any self-defense shooting.

[@TexasNEV]

Yep, no time to think in those situations.. Hence the title of the video: "Trigger hack (sorta)"... :)

[@mitchschulze9510]

The LCP 2 is NOT striker fired.

[@TexasNEV]

Correct sir, I stand corrected. :)

[@BillJerles]

What not

[@jimf1450]

That's a 2nd gen LCP with supposedly a better trigger than 1st

[@TexasNEV]

Nope, this one is the original. I have the LCP II as well and yes it is much improved. No need for any trigger work or hacks. :)

[@jimf1450]

​@TexasNEV rear sight looks like the 2013 & later LCP which is the 2nd generation of the original LCP also original has dash in SN later doesn't.

[@TexasNEV]

@@jimf1450 Ok so the confusion lies with LCP Gen 2 vs LCP II. If this is a "gen 2" of the original, it' still sucks.. LOL. :)
