Frequently Asked Questions
Ruger LCR for sale

What are some common problems with the Ruger LCR?

Early production LCRs occasionally had cylinder lockup failures where the cylinder spun freely instead of locking. The .357 variant's cylinder issue is considered a known problem without a clean resolution. Some users also report light primer strikes, frame wear from heavy recoil loads, and frame material concerns. Most owners report reliable performance overall.

What is the best caliber for the Ruger LCR?

Best caliber depends on your priorities. .38 Special offers mild recoil and proven stopping power for carry. 9mm provides cheaper ammo and standard pistol compatibility. .357 Magnum delivers maximum power but harsh recoil in this lightweight frame. .327 Federal Magnum splits the difference. Most users favor .38 Special or 9mm for the LCR.

How long will a Ruger LCR last?

Ruger LCR revolvers typically last decades with proper maintenance. Most users report 50,000+ rounds of reliable service. Standard .38 Special loads hold up best; heavy .357 Magnum or +P rounds accelerate wear. As a carry gun fired infrequently, expect 20 or more years of dependable performance.

How much does a Ruger LCR .38 cost?

Ruger LCR .38 revolvers average around $435 new and $328 used, with retail listings typically ranging from roughly $417 to $556 depending on caliber, barrel length, and finish.

Which Ruger LCR is best?

The 9mm LCR suits most people best, offering strong ballistics, affordable ammunition, and fast reloads using full moon clips. Choose .357 Magnum for maximum power or .38 Special for lighter recoil. Your hand size, recoil tolerance, and intended use should ultimately guide the decision.

Is the Ruger LCR 9mm a good gun?

Whether it's "good" depends on your needs. The LCR 9mm works well as a compact carry revolver, offering a smooth trigger, affordable 9mm ammo, and quick reloads using moon clips. Some users report occasional light primer strikes. It retails around $600 and is generally considered reliable and good value.

Is the Ruger LCR 357 a good gun?

The LCR .357 is a capable compact carry revolver. Its polymer frame reduces felt recoil despite the powerful cartridge, and it's reliable and accurate for its size. Retailing around $600, it's well-regarded for concealed carry. However, the short barrel limits ballistic performance compared to full-sized .357 revolvers.

How much is the Ruger LCR 357?

Ruger LCR .357 Magnum revolvers typically cost around $614, with most listings ranging from $477 to $860 depending on finish, barrel length, and retailer.

What is the price of the Ruger LCR 22?

Ruger LCR .22 LR revolvers have an MSRP of $739, with street prices closer to around $550 depending on retailer and finish.

What are the common problems with the Ruger LCR 22?

Owner reports indicate ammo sensitivity in .22 LR versions, with some loads causing extraction stickiness or cylinder seizure after several rounds. Frame cracking near the cylinder has been noted by some users. Trigger pull is heavier than some prefer. Ruger addresses reported issues on a case-by-case basis.

Is the Ruger LCRX any good?

Reviewers praise the LCRX for reliability, compact size, and smooth trigger. It works well as a concealed-carry or backup revolver. Tradeoffs include a five-round capacity and sharp recoil in larger calibers. Available in several calibers, typically around $600. Handling one before buying is worthwhile.

What is the difference between LCR and LCRx?

LCRx adds an exposed hammer to the LCR's design, enabling single-action cocking in addition to double-action fire. Both share the same aluminum frame and five-round capacity. The LCRx weighs slightly more and is available in a 3-inch barrel version with improved sight radius.

Does Ruger make a LCR in 22 Magnum?

Yes, Ruger makes the LCR in .22 Magnum. It shares the same lightweight frame and smooth double-action trigger as other LCR models, holds eight rounds, and is available from multiple retailers typically priced around $600–$650.

How many rounds does a Ruger LCR 22 Magnum hold?

The Ruger LCR in .22 Magnum typically holds six rounds, but capacity varies by model. Some LCRx .22 Magnum variants hold only five rounds. Check the specific model number to confirm cylinder capacity before purchasing. We carry multiple configurations on our marketplace.

What is the price of the Ruger LCR 38?

The Ruger LCR .38 Special typically sells for around $435, with new listings starting as low as $416.99. Ruger's MSRP is $759.00, but most street prices fall well below that depending on the variant and retailer.
