Good thread--I've been looking at LCRs in stores lately and love the trigger pull and also the compact size.
It's bigger than my little pocket .380 but more powerful, and seems as concealable (more, even) than the single-stack 9mm's that are so popular.
I've also had my little pocket gun choke on spent brass twice (out of about 500 rounds, probably "limp writing" but the little guys are prone to malfunctions no matter what).
Has anyone here fired, or owned, the LCR in 9mm? I thought that actually was a pretty good concept, if only because 9mm is so easy to come by and affordable. 9mm has a bit less recoil than 38 special, correct?
Revolvers are completely new to me, but I hope to get out to a range and rent a couple just to try them out. I may eventually get one. My primary carry is a 9mm semi auto that has never had a single malfunction in over 2500 rounds (12 round capacity) but for smaller or deeper concealment, I'm thinking an LCR would be an utterly reliable alternative to the error-prone .380 semi-autos.
I also want to get a .22 single-action revolver, just because I'm hooked on westerns and they just look so cool
