Bitten By The LCR Bug

[LarryBG]

A couple of weeks ago, I bought the LCR .357 Magnum. What a sweet trigger right out of the box! There's no excuse for other manufacturers to have crappy and heavy triggers any more. I have put a little over 300 rounds through it (no .38's) without any issues at all. I am very happy with it.
So happy, today I bought the LCR in .22 LR. I put 200 rounds through it this afternoon. While a bit heavier trigger pull than the .357, this one is still smooth and consistent. I did some 5 shot drills with it and the little gun shoots right where it looks. While it will never be a carry gun, I can foresee a lot of fun with this one. I'm hoping that I can get my wife interested in shooting and this just might be the gun to do it.

myself and my wife love our 38+p's.

I squirted some Microlon Gun Juice into the action of my 38+P LCR and did some dry firing. Repeated a few times, and now my trigger is slicker'n snake snot on a glass doorknob. It was good right out of the box, but now it's truly special. Let us know how the 22 performs accuracy-wise...I've been considering one of those just because a man kinna' have too many 22s! :wink:

I bought my wife a .357 LCR last year for her carry and she likes it and I love it too for light carrying.
We practice with 38 Specials and some +P but also mix in a few .357 loads, since that's what I keep in it for SD use. It's really not a bad carry gun.....better than a stick!

There are a whole lot worse guns for sure. I'm down to three of them. I'd still like a 22 Mag. but I have a 357, 38, and 22.

It took me a while to warm to my LCR-357. It is now my favorite daily carry gun.

My LCR 38 is my main concealed carry gun. My 3" LCRx is my timber carry gun of choice. My wife has the 22 LCR as well. The 22's have a slightly harder trigger pull due to the rimfire primer system. If Ruger brings the LCRx out in 22 I will be getting one of them as well.

Now, a local guy has an LCR 38 and some ammo for sale at a pretty good price. I'm trying to stay strong but I don't know how much longer I can hold out.

My very first gun purchase EVER was the LCR 38spl. I still love it even though I have acquired several different Rugers since that first purchase. It is my main carry gun and I don't plan to change that any time soon.

Go ahead, get one.

It's a easy bug to catch ... LCRX in 38 Spl and a LCR9 (because I always wanted a high quality affordable 9mm revolver). Sorta awaiting and hopeing a LCRX 22lr with a 3 inch barrel will roll out ... The polymer kit gun ...

I am able to shoot them much better than most j-frame types. I am not saying they are better, but better for me. Out the box, better sights, grips, and trigger. Not as pretty though. I like mine.
