I just threw up in my mouth a little (and I bought a Ruger today). One of these sure looks a lot better. I'm gonna wait for the Laser grip/picatinny rail version.
Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense.

How about a 5 shot .44 Special?
I definitely would buy a .22 LR with adjustable sights. I must say that the way the rear sight hangs over the rear of the .38 looks like it would be susceptible to being damaged.

I schit you not I sent the CEO an e-mail a couple months ago telling him to make this. Only I told him 4" barrel and offer it in everything. Which I am sure they will after these things sell like crazy.
Ruger done good.

...I definitely would buy a .22 LR with adjustable sights. I must say that the way the rear sight hangs over the rear of the .38 looks like it would be susceptible to being damaged. That was my thought as well looking at the pic in my first post above, but here is the picture that came with the email. From these angles the sight looks a bit more robust, it is protected by the standard Ruger "ears" like on their other revolvers. This thing is definitely fugly, but then for a fellow raised on classic S&W and Colts the first Ruger Security Sixes looked pretty blocky and ugly. I'll give Ruger credit for innovation even if not so much for setting the bar on style  , they aren't afraid to try new things. ![[Linked Image]](https://ci4.googleusercontent.com/proxy/UCzoOJMvdeL-pld--kqLsnrwzsbyRua2Z3hlvMwWJw9iJxBAk1-D-OB60SptiF6R7bzP-vd5YBOr0ZdIgAEN6ClkjwpafsWWEW3gtuO3H41yTRCsKCTI39q3sg=s0-d-e1-ft#https://origin.ih.constantcontact.com/fs186/1102873718336/img/948.jpg)

Didn't think it was possible, but Ruger has proven someone could out ugly the H&R 733.

![[Linked Image]](http://www.ruger.com/products/lcr/images/5431.jpg) They haven't acknowledged this, but I believe it is a joint venture. The original name for the offering was Glokolver.

I'm sure they would be a great kit gun...
But LCR and Butt Ugly can be used interchangeably!
YMMV,

Looks to me like a home run for Ruger! I fail to see anything ugly about this new revolver.

Just got an email from Ruger showing off their LCRx model with a 3" barrel and adjustable sights. It'll never be as classy as a S&W J-frame but the SA mode and adjustable sights in a 16 oz. handgun make it a real viable kit gun. I like the extended grip as well. .38 +P so far but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see it come out in .22 fairly soon. http://www.ruger.com/products/lcr/models.html Looks perfect for a kit gun. A kit gun ought to be ugly, because it's going to get that way eventually.

If it has fairly good trigger, I don't really care what it looks like.

This makes a good kit gun. Found it down at Bud's a few months back. 9 shot .22,...46 years old and looks brand new. I don't know why somebody would make an H&R revolver a safe queen, but somebody did,...and it's quite a shooter, believe it or not. ![[Linked Image]](http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h225/FalMike/HR22_zps95d2fbb4.jpg)
