Don't like plastic, never carry a snubbie but a few friends have them and in handling them really like the trigger pull over the S&W Js... A couple of months ago was at friend's house who had just picked up one of the new 9mms... Was very impressed. Friday I was down at a big gun shop near home and spied two 9mm LCRs in the used gun case. Both were LNIB...one was unfired...$500.00....the other looked like it had one cylinder full through it...for $335.00... All I could think was "what is wrong with this picture"... Put the cheap one on hold and went back and picked it up today... ...still trying to figure out why it was so cheap...but I am not going to loose any sleep over it...

But, damn, it looks like it would tuck away nicely and never be a burden. I bet the carry weight nearly doubles when you load it. People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I know a lot of people love them, but I can't get over the God awful ugly of them. They are 'ugly' but I love'em. The 22LR LCR is about as good as it gets and it's hard to not like this from the 3 inch version at 20 yards. The triggers are really very good. "Dear Lord, save me from Your followers"

Distances were 5, 7 and 13 yards...all double action. Ruger S&W 649 converted by TK Custom... Sun was glinting on the right side of the rear sight making aiming difficult...

And finally a fairley rare 2" 60-1 with adjustable sights with .38 Special 158 LSWC reloads... 7 yards... 13 yards.. Mild recoil, very accurate and controllable...

Both have great balance and shootability...if you ever have a chance to buy either, grab them. The 60-10 is my favorite backpacking, canoeing and fishing gun... I can shoot it as well as a the 66 and it is a lot smaller and lighter. If you can not deal with reality, reality will deal with you....
