Hickok45 on the 3” LCR

Might not make a bad nightstand gun, if you don't think it's too light.

I might see it as a woods-walking, hiking gun in a holster, lightweight being good. I checked and Ruger says it's good for .38+P.

Kinda pricy IMHO.

He says "It weighs under an ounce . . ." He likely meant "onder a pound" as the advertised weight is 15.7 ounces.

Love mine. Was my go to walking the dog gun in AZ. Crazy light, but good adjustable sights. Carried it with a couple snake shot loads and 3 hard cast wadcutters.

Nice thing is there small and light. My wife always grabs and carries one while out in the yard outside the 2 Acre fenced area. Taking the pups out on our walking trails, you may encounter anything from squirrels to moose, but coyotes are especially prevalent this year

Love mine. I have the standard LCR's around the house. I carry the 3" LCRx in a Simply Rugged holster when in my timber.

I tried true 357 mag in an LCR....never again

My next door neighbor bought one right after they hit the market, the trigger in both S/A & D/A was horrible. It was really disappointing, it was nothing like the trigger in the regular LCR. He wasn't interested in finding a gunsmith to work on it & traded it at a great loss for a 22/45.

The LCR does not come in a 3" barrel, the LCRx does. Two different guns. I have four LCRx revolvers (see my avatar) and love them (adjustable sights, comfortable grip, 3" barrel).

I have trouble watching this guy sometimes, he only seems to look at this LCRx as a potential carry gun but complains about the larger grip and longer barrel.

I bought mine as recreational target and plinking guns, not to carry (I have an LCR and S&W 442 for that role). I find the DA and SA trigger to be very good (typical strong Ruger springs but I'm okay with that).
