Is there any safety on this gun?

Hi Al, Ruger LCP's do not have manual thumb safeties. Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Al and welcome. Just an internal drop safety. A manual safety .280 of comparable size is the Smith and Wesson BodyGuard : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/90978/smith+%26+wesson+m%26p+bodyguard+.380acp+2.75+6+1

Is this legal for concealed carry in Florida?

Hi Thomas and welcome. Yes. Effective self-defense ammunition is a must in .380. https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/85368/remington+ammunition+chd380bn+compact+380+acp102+gr+brass -- Cheers and stay safe!

does the gun still come with an extra mag and holster?

Hi Russell and welcome. (1) 6rd Magazine only is included. Spare Magazines recommended here (2-Pack deal): https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/39176/ruger+90643+ruger+lcp+380+automatic+colt+pistol+acp+6+rd+black+finish - Cheers and stay safe!

Just did a quick search using the supplied upc and this only comes with 1- 6 round magazine. No extras.

Russel, this comes with (1) 6rd magazine, no holster. Sorry.

Is this gun legal for nj

yes it is NJ legal https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_jersey_restrictions.pdf

Michael, yes this is NJ compliant. It only comes with 1 magazine, spares here >>> https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/39176/ruger+90643+ruger+lcp+380+automatic+colt+pistol+(acp)+6+rd+black+finish .....Have a great day!

Yes, this is legal in new jersey. Hope this helps and enjoy.

Michael, yes Sir. It is legal in NJ. I would also get a spare magazine or two while you are at it (2 pack here) : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/39176/ruger+90643+ruger+lcp+380+automatic+colt+pistol+(acp)+6+rd+black+finish

Does this have a safety?

sorry it does not have a manual safety

Nothing Wrоng with wanting a manual safety but with a quality kydex holster its not needed

Richard, unfortunately no. The similar sized Bodyguard does have a Manual Safety : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/90978/smith+&+wesson+m&p+bodyguard+380acp+275+6%2b1 ------------- and the Bersa : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/16298/bersa+t380m8+thunder+380+matte+finish+dasa+380+acp+35+8%2b1+black+checkered+grip+black

No the only version of the LCP thats available with a manual safety is the 22lr version. The Mac also has a version available with a manual safety.

No, this does not have a manual thumb safety. Hope this helps.

Can it handle +P ammo?

Raphiel, No. The Ruger LCP was not designed for use with +P ammunition. Given the LCP's lightweight and compact design, the use of +P ammunition in this particular model may result damage to the firearm or personal injury. ---- https://www.defensivecarry.com/threads/rugers-answer-to-p-in-the-lcp.83982/

Someone asked this question on Buffalo Bores website and Buffalo Bore says their +p ammo is good to go in an LCP "1. Can I shoot your +P 380 Auto ammo in my LCP? Yes you can. Gun makers often warn against using any ammo that is not SAAMI spec. and there is no SAAMI spec. for the 380 auto +P cartridge. Gun makers do this to protect themselves from any liability in our super litigious American society. Buffalo Bore and others have tested our 380 auto +P ammo in the LCP and many LCP owners currently shoot our +P ammo in their LCPs and we've never heard of any problems from the "power" or "pressure" of the ammo, but obviously the use of +P ammo in these little guns should be limited to just enough to test reliable feeding and point of impact, then carry the ammo in your LCP in the event you need it, but don't go plinking with it." https://www.buffalobore.com/ammo/QA.html
