Ruger LCR

Local gun shop has one with the exposed hammer in 9MM, new, for $347. Good price or not?

After researching online, that seemed to be a great price. Went to get it, already gone.

Bummer....

I had my local gun shop/hangout have a titanium snub nose .45 Long Colt on sale, it was a trade in with a only a few rounds through it. The owner bought it, shot a few rounds (3-4 rounds) and decided it was way too much recoil for him!!!

I had just bought a .357 snub nose the week prior. My wife told me to buy it, and see which I liked better, and sell the other. At the price, I would have made a large profit if I sold the .45.

I wasted about 10 minutes on my way back to the gun store..... arrived just in time to see another patron purchase it.

Oh well. Next week they had another used version in a similar condition...... nearly double the price......

Good price but crimp jump is a pretty common problem with 9mm LCRs. I'll stick to .38 Special or .327 Federal for an LCR.
