When the LCR came out I thought they were the ugliest little gun made. But curiosity overwhelmed me and I bought one. Had to send it back to Ruger because it had .011 barrel cylinder gap, lots of stuff hitting the fingers when you pulled the trigger. They returned it in a week with .006 gap. And it's a great gun for it's intended use. I read that Ruger introduced the LCRX-3 inch and saw one at the LCS. $425. Probably paid to much but I wanted it. Ran a few through it last night and the rear sight pin started working out. Put a little tweak in the pin and some lock tight last night and went back out this afternoon. I like it. It's a little snappy but shoots very well. I need to lower the rear sight.
