Value on LP2 Compact?

I found one with two cylinders (in date) and can't find any recent sales of them to indicate value. It seems to be an earlier / lesser version of the LP10 from what I've found. I may need to be patient and wait for an LP10 Compact. I also have leads on a couple of LP400 Compacts if anyone has an opinion on them.

Thanks!

David

PS - I would prefer to let my wife handle them before buying, but that isn't an option. I just have to do the best I can for the moment. dwj

I got one for my daughter to shoot (my wife and I both shoot an LP10). I am very impressed with the value for money of the LP2. The grip, sights and trigger are the same as LP10, they lack the barrel shroud and the "stabiliser" of the LP10. The only difference between Lp2 and Lp10 when shooting them is a slight muzzle flip (which in my opinion is still way less than some other pistols like Morini). The compact version does seem to be quite loud, maybe it's the short barrel.

We paid about 950 Euro new (about USD 1125), and I don't for one moment regret getting it. They normally only come with 1 cylinder though.

What he said. My friend has one (and others) and prefers it.

Thanks for the input. I ordered it. Looking forward to seeing how it shoots and see if my wife might actually stick with this a little while. If not, at least I can get my money back out of it...or shoot it myself. :-)

I've also spotted a deal on another LP-@. I'm trying to convince myself I need a backup pistol that's exactly like my primary. Heheh
