Ruger LCR in .22

I have the LCR .22 and love it...easy, fun,and cheap to shoot. Mine shoots to POA.

Good to know they're actually out there--although I'm sure they'll be hard to find for the next few months. My older daughter has been eyeing my previously-mentioned Model 63 snubbie, so unless I want to lose it I should probably get one of these.

Yes I will. According to the gunblast review the trigger is as nice as the centerfire LCR with reliable ignition. That will be a first with any .22 DA revolver I've owned.

The one I tried was slightly heavier than the .38 version, but that could have been just that gun.

I'll think about it. My wife and I have both carried 5 shooter 38s for years and I have a S&W 22 for practice. They all, S&Ws and the Ruger pretty much all feel the same in the hand so maybe I won't need the Ruger. Might get it anyway. Probably will get it. I carry the 38 on wilderness canoe trips and the 22 might be more useful.

Put it in a plastic bag on the canoe, .22's are more sensitive to moisture. Or just carry the .38. If you needed to pop a rabbit to keep from going cannibal, you could probably hit it just as easily with the .38.

Hadn't heard about the .22 version yet. Seems like a great way to supplement the .38 for training. I'll have to think about maybe getting one of those

I like the concept, but for a polymer framed revolver, the price should be lower.

Yeah, along with all those polymer framed autos.

Saw them at SHOT show in January and decided to get one. Received mine 3 weeks ago and have put 200 rounds through it. At 7 yards it will shoot groups smaller than a 1/2 dollar coin. No recoil whatsoever. The trigger on mine is rough but many of us manage to handle it. My buddy couldn't stop shooting it and considered getting one for his wife. My girlfriend who is not a revolver fan loves it and shoot it well, especially for a first timer. She managed the heavy trigger and kept groups to about 4" at 7 yards.

I paid $375 for it.

no way. seems Rugers QC takes a day off whenever they feel like it but guns go out the door anyway.

I got one back in January and like it a lot. Trigger is nicer than my Smith 617. The sights are decent for a snubnose and they're making me think about taking the XS sight off of my 38 LCR and put a regular post on.
