Description

Included:

The Ruger LCR (Lightweight Compact Revolver) is a double-action-only, 5-shot snub-nose revolver chambered in .38 Special +P. Introduced in 2009, it revolutionized the carry revolver market by utilizing a modular construction that incorporates polymer to drastically reduce weight and perceived recoil. It is widely regarded as having one of the best factory triggers in its class.

Key Features

Polymer Fire Control Housing: The lower frame (grip and trigger guard) is made of glass-filled polymer. This innovative design reduces weight and helps absorb recoil energy, making the gun more comfortable to shoot than traditional alloy-only lightweight revolvers.

Friction-Reducing Cam: The trigger mechanism utilizes a patented friction-reducing cam system. This results in a smooth, non-stacking double-action trigger pull that is lighter and more consistent than most standard snub-nose revolvers.

Monolithic Aluminum Frame: The upper cylinder frame and barrel shroud are crafted from aerospace-grade, 7000-series aluminum with a synergistic hard-coat finish for durability and weight savings.

Enclosed Hammer: The hammer is completely internal, giving the revolver a sleek, snag-free profile. This allows it to be drawn from a pocket, purse, or waistband without catching on clothing.

Hogue Tamer Grip: Comes standard with a Hogue Tamer Monogrip, which includes a special soft rubber insert at the backstrap to cushion the shooter's hand against the snap of +P ammunition.

Deeply Fluted Cylinder: The stainless steel cylinder features aggressive fluting to remove excess mass, contributing to the firearm's light carry weight.
