Lcr in 9mm

[MAD Geary]

Ruger just announced they are making the LCR in 9mm now. What do you guys think?

Makes me think I want one.

I like it and will be adding it to my collection at some point.

Interesting... I wonder how the recoil and ballistics will compare between the different calibers.

Love it- cheaper ammo than .38 special. Assume it will use moon clips, unless they have figured out another solution.

It comes with moon clips.

Sweet. No speed loaders required.

I want one. Really want a 9mm revolver. This and a 986.

Looking for sd handgun for wife. Probably softer shooting than 38 special but more stopping power than 22 mag. Could certainly fit the bill

I don't think softer shooting than 38 spl. It is about 150 ft-lbs more energy. http://www.ballistics101.com/9mm_vs_.38special.php

One of these days I want to pick one up myself. I'd like to add a revolver without adding another caliber to reload

The LCR in .38sp is not at all unpleasant to shoot. The plastic frame and excellent grip really moderate the recoil relative to a J frame smith.

Exactly the same reasoning for me. Always ad a revolver/new caliber handgun and I never shoot it much and sell it after a few month cause all my other guns are in 9. Plus I am to lazy to switch over my press to a new caliber.
