So,
About 6 mos ago I went to a Ft Lauderdale gun show (very busy) to buy a very specific gun. A Ruger LCP Max. Very popular gun/model. It soon became my daily "go to" gun. Small, light and easy to conceal in our T-shirt & shorts environment. My Hellcat, while being more capable, but larger and heavier, got regulated to second. The other day I decided that another LCP Max was in my future, as a dedicated carry gun for the motorcycle.
Sunday I went down to the also very busy Miami gun show. Walking up and down the isles checking prices. Soon found the same dealer I had purchased from 6 mos earlier, and they had an assortment of LCP's on the table. We discussed/agreed on a price. His wife/assistant said "pick the one you want", to me, "they should all be the same, doesn't matter," and I just pointed to one.
As she was packing it up into the box, she dropped the gun onto the concrete floor.
So she reached out and grabbed another random box/gun on the display table. Purchase made, I drove home, threw the gun onto the workbench and went upstairs to watch the Monaco F1, then Indy 500.
This morning I went downstairs to the garage, picked up the new gun/box, and stacked it atop the box from 6 mos ago while waiting for the new trigger parts and mags to arrive later this week.
Something caught my attention, and I did a double take. Did a triple check. Then physically checked the guns.
Sure enough, they are sequential serial #'s, ******** 206 & 207 !!!!
Could not have planned it or arranged it even if I had tried, especially for a mass produced pocket gun, with gazillions made/sold.

I'll tell you what rule we applied sir.
We applied rule 303.
We caught them and we shot them under rule 303!

That's pretty cool.
Couple of months ago I heard a three digit case number issued over the police radio. No big deal. A few minutes later, I issued a ticket book to someone and it had the same three digit number on it. I stated "Wow, I should play the lottery with that number!" but, being that I don't play the lottery, didn't bother. The next day, one of my employees asked if I played the number, and I said no. "You should have." It was the same number.

Damn, now that is an odd coincidence. Very cool.
Question: does the LCP Max fit into the LCP and LCP II holsters? Thanks.BerettaRacer wrote: ↑Tue May 30, 2023 10:31 am ……The other day I decided that another LCP Max was in my future, as a dedicated carry gun for the motorcycle…..

It should.
The uppers are the same, just a slightly thicker double stack grip.
