I have one of these. I also have a few other 22lr pistols. This one is the best one I've ever owned. Out of thousands of rounds I've had one misfeed in the first mag before cleaning it. It is also much more accurate than it should be given its size.

I bought 2 of these--I've had to send both of mine back to Ruger 4 times until they replace one and finally fixed the other (failures to feed, eject, and continuous jams)--they've replaced barrels, ejectors, firing pins (these pins broke on both guns--wonder if from dry firing--they say no, but they both literally broke off)--I've found they only like CCI Minimags and usually stingers--nothing else. They've been a labor of love, but no other gun has this many rounds with this size--until now--LCP Max.

That could be said with just about ALL semi-auto 22's, don't dry fire but just to release the firing pin tension, it really shouldn't hurt anything done occasionally.

@travisp11 4 ай бұрын

It sounds like the mag release spring is not how it should be. I would send it in for the feeding ramp issues alone. Small pistols are finicky at best but if it won’t easily feed rounds from the mag, whether you slide release charge it, sling shot the first round or top charge it, it may need to go back.

@brf351c 2 күн бұрын

The BLUE paint on the recoil spring flaked off inside the pistol - - -so be aware of that. Mine is brand new - so I used some HOPPS to clean it. Eventually I bought a new M*Carbo recoil spring and rod - I want to try different type of ammo - standard and hi power and see how it runs at the range. My mags base plate was not installed correctly - so I had to fix that. It's easy to over look that. But if you can only install 9 vs 10 in the mag - - - then you check the base plate and I bet it's wrong. Reinstall it - then you will get 10 in the mag.

Thanks for cleaning info. I have not had a chance to fire my brand new LCP22LR, I noticed some odd, about the slide. Carefully racking back the slide, I noticed a little extra drag, near the End Of Travel. I figured it might be because the recoil spring was getting tightly compressed with the slide all way back. So, I REMOVED the recoil spring, reassembled and cycled the slide.. AH HA! Moving the slide all the way to the rear, I can feel a Very noticeable resistance in the slide before it stops. It's like the slide gets really tight on the rails during the last 1/2 inch of travel. I did a clean and lube, and that last half inch still resists/drags (smoothly). Is this normal? Has anyone else seen this?

@travisp11 3 жыл бұрын

May be the recoil spring like you said. It is a very dense coils and under compression I could see it possibly becoming tough to cycle.

@XRinger 3 жыл бұрын

@@travisp11 I guess I wasn't clear enough after the part where "I REMOVED the recoil spring," and the binding was still there. Please just take our your recoil spring, reassemble it and see if you have free-travel when the slide is pulled all the way back. I'm dying to know if my pistol has a problem or, it's working normally for this design. I'm going to try to get to the range tomorrow and test fire it. Edit: 2/25/2021 Range day. Afterwards while cleaning, I saw what was causing the drag when the slide was all the way back. It surface of the cocking ramp (bottom side of slide) is coming in contact with the hammer. I watched the back of the hammer while pulling back the slide and the cocking ramp pushes the hammer very low, out of sight actually. So the already cocked hammer sits up where you can see it, but when the slide comes back, the hammer is pushed down (to lock onto the sear), and that was the cause of the drag and the slide feeling so tight on the rails. Ammo Report: The old Bulk box of Winchester (Walmart) must be pretty fast, because it worked really well. My 30+ year old Eley match ammo was low powered and very cycled the LCP2/22 nicely. The Federal "Standard" (low recoil) velocity failed to feel on almost every shot. (But worked great in the T/C .22 carbine). I forgot to take the Federal High velocity ammo. The (2019) High velocity bulk boxes were hiding behind the Federal "Standard" velocity junk. Good reason for another range day! Strange slide locking: I would be shooting a magazine of Winchester, and the slide would lock back, in mid-mag like the mag was empty. I've heard of this bug before KZfaq. I know it's not me pushing up on the slide release. The theory was: With perfect timing, the slide-lock bar bounces, when the slide hits the back-Stop and starts back forward, but is stopped by the side stop. So, I wondered if I wasn't holding the pistol tight enough.?. I concentrated on a tight grip, and shot 30 more rounds without the early slide lock. Maybe some heavy gun-grease on that bar might keep it from bouncing.?.

@natebrown4330 3 жыл бұрын

The back end of the slide travel is when it is contacting the hammer to cock it. What you are feeling is the friction between the slide and the hammer face.

@XRinger 3 жыл бұрын

@@natebrown4330 I finally figured that out when I came home from the range and cleaned it. I had painted the top of my hammer orange. So I had a 'Cocked" hammer indication that was easy to see. In good light, I watched the 'cocked' hammer disappear down into the frame, as I slowly pulled back the slide, the last 1/2".. Then I removed the slide and looked at the underside. The (center) cocking rail that pushes the hammer back & down, is triangle shaped, and pushes the hammer 'Way' down, (so that engages the sear). Even if it's already down and locked. The pistol worked well with hi-velocity ammo. Not so much with low-vel. After I got home, I found all my Federal Hi-vel ammo, hidden behind the low-vel (standard vel). So, next weekend I'm going to shoot 200 to 400 rnds of that, to break it in a little more.. :) Thanks for your reply Nate! Edit: 5/10/2021 The high velocity Federal HP (Walmart bulk) did the trick. No FTF or any other malfunction at all. I'll use that standard velocity ammo in my rifles and full-sized .22 pistols.

I’m sorry, but I think you are making it more complicated than it needs to be. You need a Boresnake, a toothbrush, some oil, and a can of the cheapest brake cleaner you can find. The big difference is using brake cleaner. It won’t hurt the glass-filled Nylon and will dissolve and carry away the carbon buildup. Wear gloves and eye protection and spray outdoors. I walk outside to spray the brake cleaner. The brake cleaner will remove any oil, so you need re-oil. 1. Separate the slide and receiver. 2. Run the Boresnake dry through the bore breech to muzzle a couple of times. 3. Blow some brake cleaner through the bore. 4. Put a few drops of oil on the Boresnake ahead of the brush. Run the bore snake through again a couple of times. 5. Blow brake cleaner through the slide and scrub it with the toothbrush. Pay particular attention to the breech face and extractor. 6. Blow brake cleaner through the lower receiver and scrub it with the toothbrush. Brake cleaner will not hurt the nylon lower receiver. 7. Put a little oil on the contact points; slide rails, all over the outside of the barrel, at the front, the cam surface underneath, and the top where the chamber top contacts the slide, trigger lever. 8. Reassemble. 9. Magazines - hold the magazine upside down. Blow brake cleaner inside it to flush buildup out. Add a little oil inside and push the follower down a few times to spread it around. 10. Wipe gun and magazines with a little oil.
