Took my two grandsons out yesterday mainly to let oldest grandson break in the new shotgun I got him for Christmas. Took the LCP out for the first time since receiving it back from the recall only to function test it and here's what I got.
Worked flawlessly. I was never overly concerned with trigger pull on this gun as it is NOT a range/target pistol. This is a close quarters, defensive handgun with rudimentary sights (at best). I will not be attempting any 25 yard head shots on a BG behind a hostage with it. I fired two mags of carry ammo (Remington Golden Sabers) and three mags of Magtech ball ammo. No malfunctions. Accuracy was acceptable as I was using a clay bird as a target at about 30 yards. Hit the bird on about the 4th shot and chewed up the dirt bank around the bird with all shots except the last mag full of Magtech which I fired rapid fire just to test reliability. Trigger pull was as good or better as before repair and this is confirmed by my electronic trigger pull gauge. Originally broke at 7lbs. to 7lbs. 3oz.s. Now breaks consistently at 6lbs. 4ozs. If you have any desire to reload 380, they also made the frame repair in my pistol and the empties are now pristine.
I would suggest thinking twice about not sending in a gun for repair. IANAL, but should you drop an unaltered gun and injure someone, I believe your liability could be even worse had you refused to send it in for repair of a known defect.
