First range trip with the LCR 9mm, and I'm happy, very happy. I shot a box of Rem/UMC 115gr FMJ followed by a box of American Eagle 124gr FMJ. I also shot a box of reloads through another 38 revolver, so 150 rounds total.
Not a lot, but there was no chewing of the trigger finger by the trigger guard, no irritation in the web, no soreness at all. Soon into the box of 124gr bullets the white insert in the front sight disappeared, but that's nit-picking. I was so happy I didn't care.
The increase from 13.5 oz to 17.2 oz, the Hogue grip, the low cost of 9mm ammo, and the increased ballistics over the 38 make the LCR 9mm the one to have, imo.
This was also my first experience with moon clips. No issues there either. I did take along one of those things to unlock privacy doorknobs (on the left in pic), and it worked fine for removing the empty casings from the clips without bending them.
