Default Interesting new revolver...the New Ruger LCR

Here is a new concept. The Ruger LCR is a Polymer revolver. Chambered in 38 special and will fire +P ammo. The five shot revolver is the size of S&W J frame revolvers and will fit holsters for the S&W. Check it out here.

Good review.

It's the cover story in the March Guns & Ammo, too. Looks interesting.

that pistol with a set of Collins lip grips would be the ultimate concealable weapon!

I got my copy today. That's the reason I started this thread.

I like wheel guns anyway, and Yes, I saw that yesterday too... 13.5oz is not much, I' like to see how it fits these big fat ol' hands with the CT Grips.. I am sure the local "Toy Store" can beat the 8bill list price.

This looks nice!

Funny side note, I was reading this post and a co-worker walked by and said "I pray to God you don't have one of those". I said "why?” She said "we don't need more violence and crime in this world". I said "owning a firearm doesn't mean I commit crime or part take in acts of violence, this happens to be a hobby which I love, shooting is a sport not just crime and violence". Her response was "why can't you just take up reading or something", my response was "I don't judge you for reading, don't judge me for shooting". We went back in forth until she gave up. Just thought I'd share that with you guys. Made me laugh! Ohhhhh PRMA.... State full of Antis that don't know the first thing about this kind of stuff.

people like your co-worker make me sick... to think because i own an "assault weapon" (my AR15) people think of me as the next person to knock over a 7-11 or shoot up a school... i have people like that where i work too, stupid left-wing liberals...

anyways getting back on topic, i would really love to shoot one... too bad no gun stores around here have a try it before you buy option...

Would be a nice piece of equipment to own. Hope it shoots better than those darn "Air Weight" frame wheel guns.
