Back about a decade ago, Ruger released the Snub nose LCR9mm. I jumped on it. The idea of having a snub in this caliber was too much to resist. Now all these years later I can say this. It is my most favorite FUN gun to shoot, the most enjoyable. I look forward to every single range session more than any gun I have ever owned. This was my first Snub I had shot in many years and to be Frank, I was terrible. But keep at it, and over they years I became one with the gun.
First of all the build quality is absolutely top quality, solid, and time has proven that he can go the distance. The Trigger is incredibly smooth, deliberate, a sweet roll.
The gun has a perfect balance. I have spent my lifetime honing point and shoot skills and this gun is a master at that particular art of shooting This is a gun that after mastering it, you will not have to look at any sight at 7 yds. Just quickly point it at the center mass and the bullet will find it's mark.
My typical range session is 40 moon clips (200 rds) I load the night before. This gun when shooting just gives a feeling that you cannot really describe. It is Honest, True, reliable. and fast.
Things I like:
The recoil is on this side of Pleasant. Just a tad more than the 38. The ballistics are Ideal, As good or Better than a Micro9mm. None of the harsh recoil of the 357 or 327. None of the loudness of the 357 or the Flash. Moon clips are cheap and fast to load. Easy to carry additional clips. I have always said, "If the Gun Gods came down and told me all I could carry would be a 5 shot Snubbie, it would not bother me at all."
As Hickok45 said about Snubbies, "There is just something about them".
And no wonder, this is my favorite 22.cal Plinker
I carry the LCR when I am in the woods, hiking or hunting. I asked my Doctor for advise for a way to carry and protect the ammo, He gave me this prescription below.
