well it looks like Ruger did it again
could be another Home Run in the making
Appears to be a S&W 317 - Ruger style
both have 8 rounds and both with barrels less than 2"
I think the 317 runs about $660 and higher, I wonder if the new lcr will be HALF that?
Well, if you like homely guns.
Who would Ruger be trying to target with an LCR in .22LR? Maybe they thought that people would buy it as an understudy for the LCR in .38/.357.
We ordered one for our Shop. It was gone in 2 days.
i have read that is exactly what it was intended forQuote:

same question - what was the S&W 317 targeted for? and that one is a lot more expensive
Or that they thought that the plastic thingy would actually last long enough when shooting .22s. Actually a .22 Magnum might not make a bad weapon in plastic. More reliable than a .380 auto, but with the same weight. (An aluminum cylinder will shave 2 ounces off the weight of the weapon.)Quote:

Well since the first post I now have my SP101 22lr and I must add Wow! It's everything I thought it would be and more! Now I really gotta have the LCR 22.Just to round out the 22 colection :mrgreen:
Well I found an LCR at one of my LGS pulled the trigger and bought it. Well I am impressed! Accurate and wow what a trigger! 300 rds on the first trip to the range, not one issue!
I think that is exactly right. It will allow significant trigger time without abusing the hand or the wallet.Quote:

I got one about a month ago for $475 out-the-door.It is a fun little gun to shoot,but WILL NOT function with CCI Velocitors. I basicaly got it for the girlfriend to shoot,she has Carpal Tunnel and cannot shoot lots of 9mm or 45acp.It really makes me want an LCR in 357.I would highly recommend it to anyone who is considering one.It is also a low cost training tool for a DAO.
