Another new one for 2019...

Id like one in 9mm but this might fit the bill.

This and the new King Cobra both have my eye. I have the standard LCR in .357 now and it's a great carry gun.

LOL, I won an 500$ gift card to the gun store and bought a LCR 357 crimson trace model . Took it to the range once. Walked out to the counter and asked them what they would give me in trade for it. I have a Ruger alaskan 454, Super Redhawk in 480 Ruger Both hand loaded to their maxes. That little LCR is the most Violent recoil I ever felt in my hand and wrist. They gave me 450$ for it and I bought a M&P 2.0 Pro with the money.

Yeah, it's definitely not for the faint of heart. I don't mind it with 38's, but full house 357 is just plain painful after a few.

Just bought one from TSS it's on the way... I plan on having TK Custom machine the cylinder so I can also run 9mm in it - dont feel like waiting to see if Ruger will release the 3inch 9mm LCRX...

My lcr357 w/ct laser was the worst recoiling gunn Ive ever shot and I shoot 480 ruger and 454 all the time.
I shot it 12 times and traded it in.
On the plus side I paid 399, and got 450 in trade in value for it.

Ordered one and should be at my FFL tomorrow... the weight of this is actually not that far off from the sp101 so we will see about recoil... i am definitely going to have the cylinder machined by TK Custom to also run 9mm in it.

What do they charge for the milling, and I assume it's with moon clips?

You can use the standard ruger 9mm moonclips but yes you need moonclips... cool thing about it though is that it allows the ability to run 357mag/ 38spl with or without moonclips (adding moonclip ability for 357/38). Have to recheck pricing and will post, as I recall it's not bad.
