Ruger LCR (internal rattle)

[Hutt]

My partners new LCR has developed a rattle after fireing it's first ten rounds. Shaking it vigorously when empty makes this happen. We really did not notice this before it was NIB. Gun still functions well but one does not want it to lock up in a critical situation. Do they all have this rattle and what is?

It's the transfer bar and is not a problem.

It is most likely the transfer bar.

My LCR has that rattle also and am pretty sure it is the transfer bar.

It's supposed to do that. Embrace the rattle. The rattle is your friend. It's a good thing....

Yelp. transfer bar. If you pull the trigger and dry-fire (MAKE SURE EMPTY :wink: )and hold the trigger the rattle will not be there.

Maybe the PR guys should rename it the "Rattler".
Much better then the "elsie pea" nickname for the lcp.
