I've had my LCP 2 for a few years. It's had a few thousand rounds through it. It has never hiccuped. I replaced the takedown pin just because. This model does not have the slide lock-back on empty mag feature. Yesterday I was at the range at Sig Sauer in Exeter and after I ran a magazine though it, I inserted a new mag and went to rack the slide and it was stuck. Really stuck. It had a minute amount of play in it. I popped the mag and verified that there was nothing in the chamber. I went to the armorer on duty and she looked at it and saw nothing either. She used a plastic hammer and tapped the slide from the front and it popped free. She suggested that I have Ruger look at it. Then she suggested that I do a thorough cleaning and lube and try it one more time. I did the cleaning but haven't had time to hit the range again. Before I do I wanted to see if anyone has had this issue. Thoughts?

Just an update. I contacted Ruger and they sent me a return label for UPS. I shipped it the next day. I got the pistol back about a week later. They replaced the barrel and the slide. I've since run three mags through it and it works as it should. Rugers customer service is outstanding. My only complaint is there was no mention of what caused my problem.

Glad you go it going again.
Ruger's reply seems typical. I sent in my SR22 and got a similar list of just what was replaced.
I'm sure they get so many guns in for warranty work, they simply don't have time to write a report. My only reason for wanting to know what the problem was, was to make sure it wasn't anything I was doing wrong.
