I was just wondering how many LCP's are out there. Mine is S/N 50xxx So I know there are over 50,000 of them assuming they started at #1?

Looking at my lcp serial # I suspect Ruger released over 70,000 before the recall situation came up.

I think you are in the ballpark. Before the recall, they were trying to ship around 100,000 the first year.

They may be very close,50,000 out of the factory and 50,000 back. ;D

:Hang on to them, even if they don't work as I have heard they may scrap them and go back to the drawing board and start on a tiny 9mm, then yours will become a collectors item lol! ;D ;D ;D

I doubt they are gonna scrap a gun that sold like crazy in the first year of production. Maybe the best selling handgun ever for a first year gun. Yeah, I can see a little single stack 9mm in the future or Ruger, but to scrap the LCP was be a very bad business decision.
