Design and history
Introduced in late 2017 to replace the Ruger LCP II, it features a lighter trigger pull. The design and action of the pistol can be found in firearms first produced by Kel-Tec in 1995.
The Secure Action combines the trigger pull of the LCP with the single-action, as it has a positive reset. It also has a hammer that provides a strong ignition force that has a slide racking to make it easier to slide. The pistol also features a sight system with drift adjustable rear sight and a fixed front sight. It also has a strong spring tension; the hammer catch to help prevent the hammer from containing the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled, which makes it safer. [2]
