3 inch LCR-X!

For what it is i really like it over the older revolvers. I think it looks more like a blend of a revolver and a glock. Something to appease those who arent all about the older revolvers. Exactly what im looking for.

Also is it just me or does it almost look like 1911 sights on it

I'll be that guy - For a snubby maybe but personally I think it looks like crap and should only be used in a cheap cartoon.

What's the attraction with 3" barrels?

What's the attraction with 3" barrels?

Not sure but I love them. The perfect combination for me, just big enough to get a little more sight radius and velocity but not so short that I cannot conceal it in a pocket, IWB holster or snug belt holster (my preferred way). Today, I traded my 2" SP101 plus a little cash on a 3" LCRX and I am happy with the results. I still have my nice heavy 3" SP101, my 4" Model 19 and 6" L-frame for playing with .357's, the LCRX will fit the bill for my EDC. Especially if I get some Buffalo Bore +P for ammo. I have looked up some handloading specs that come really close to the Buffalo Bore to practice with. Plus it will be fun to experiment. I am not afraid to run some +P+ through any Ruger pistol, even an alloy frame one.

I like my 3" GP100. Easier IWB than a 4", better sight radius and more oomph than a 2". It also seems to balance very well, although that may just be mental.
