Me neither. I just upgraded the daily carry gun from a Ruger LCP to a Ruger LC9s. Thought I needed the additional “oomph” that the 9mm has over the .380

There is no comparison whatever between an armed and disarmed man; it is not reasonable to suppose that one who is armed will obey willingly one who is unarmed; or that any unarmed man will remain safe.... - Niccoló Machiavelli, The Prince. 1537.

With the coming of cooler weather I discovered that my Ruger LC9, under a sweater or light jacket is NO MORE visible than the cell phone on the other side, the slight bulge being the same.
Regretably, I, too think it is time to “carry”. I liked it better when “carrying” was something we never thought of.

I think you will like it. I can shoot mine almost as well as a full size. In my opinion it has an ideal trigger for a gun that may get used in a high stress situation. If you can find the Italian mags grab them. They not only look better, but slide in and out of the gun better. Radiusing the edge of the mag with a fine file and sandpaper where it contacts the release will help insertion and cut down on wear to the release. Something I do with all mags.
