What is the sigificance of the "Mayodaning" on the right side of the slide?

If you are making a samich, and your name is Dan, you can use it to spread your mayo. Named after a guy at the Ruger factory that would use an LCP on his lunch break to do just that!

Yup, Yup, it's an Original LCP unofficial Gen 3 gun LOL!
Model 3791 - Limited Availability
Didn't even know it existed

For a pocket gun I didn't want the tall sights they added to the LCP 3755 (so called Custom).
Like the minimal no snag sights of the original.
Plus the gun points so naturally, point blank I don't even need sights

A buddy has that little custom. He had the regular model before it. Says the trigger was a major improvement.

When the Gen3 LCP came out, a local gun shop, ran a one weekend special on the Gen2 for 199. Bought one. Never had an issue. Bought an extra magazine with the little finger extension for $20 at a pawn shop. I took it and my CW380 to the range once, one shoots a little higher than point of aim, the other one, shoots a little low. Maybe an inch at 5 yards. I can live with that. I only carry the LCP when I wear a suit. So not very often. Wish it locked the slide back when the mag is empty.

Yup, yup, my LCP II does lock back with the new LCP II mags.
LCP II is backward compatible with the old mags, but will not lock back when empty.
I do like that feature.
But I shoot the original LCP much better.
So I can live with the sling shot method for that gun

Yeah, a lock back feature after the last round would be nice, but not a deal breaker for me.

Barth, you ain’t doing me any favors with the link to that $204 stainless LCP. 😜
My new S9 hasn’t even been delivered here yet.

I had to take out a sick cat that was wreaking havoc in the neighborhood ae., howling all night, pissing on everything including decks and steps, driving everyone's dog's crazy, etc. I could tell it was sick, it was moving really slow and wouldn't even try to run from dogs. I didn't really want to do it...............Looked outside one day, saw it on my drain field. Made the decision, grabbed the wife's LCP2, stepped out on the back steps, peeked around the corner of the house, took one shot from about 45 ft. Done. It was a big tom, so he was still moving so I quickly got it over with. I knew I should have used a larger caliber........................I do like it as far as accuracy, even with rudimentary sights and could shoot it all day.........

That's a whole lot of gun for $204

I think that’s Mayodan, NC, where the new Ruger plant is located.

Yup, Yup, my original LCP was made in Arizona
They have moved the manufacturing to NC these days...
