      What are the ones you are thinking about selling?

        LCR...had one, didn’t like it, sold it. It was the hammerless 38 special with ~1.8” barrel.

        If you haven’t shot one yet, may change your mind after that.

          I can't shoot mine at a distance for a damn, however it's a lightweight firearm that actually has some knock down power, and that's the point.

          Overall my purchase has to justify a purpose in regards to utility or fun. Same with letting something go. I may let go of a full size revolver just because I have another that's very similar.

            I just bought the 38 version today. Never shot one before. I'm looking forward to it. It's my first wheel gun since I was a kid.

              I sell what I don't use. I just picked up a rough texture Glock 17 and sold a Glock 42 since it did nothing better than my LCP.

              I had a LCR and liked it enough that it's on my list of wants/buy again.

                I can't bring myself to sell any of my guns. The only one I've even considered selling is my Walther P22 because it is a pile of hot garbage that only cycles CCI Mini Mags. But I still can't do it.

                  It's mostly a financial decision for me, I do the same thing with knives. In years past I have spent to much on guns and put myself in a corner. I do spend my tax return on a new gun each year so the collection does expand..... Just slowly.

                    Should have looked at an air weight J-frame.

                      That could be in the near future. I tend to get a new pistol every month or so. I use my overtime pay exclusively for gun related purchases. Next up on the list will probably be a Glock in 10mm followed by a 1911 in either 9mm or .38 super.

                        Stance is important in firing a snubby. You have minimal sight radius and, especially with a lightened firearm, more potential for movement from working the trigger. Lean forward and into your position to reduce unwanted movement.

                        I qualified for my NV CCW and spent the rest of that day shooting my LCR .357 with ball .38. Never having shot the gun (it was brand new) and using ammo I had never shot, it took three hits in the 7 & 8 ring to determine POI and all follow ups were in the X-ring.

                        The LCR is a fine gun.

                          Agreed, I like mine quite a bit and is my primary CC pistol. The triggers are great.

                            I've got the LCR as well as the LCP in my rotation on my CCW. The LCP is, by far, the most difficult to shoot of any of my guns. It also is a .380 so it is relegated to a BUG for whenever my wife drags me purse shopping in LA (her purse collection is somewhere in the $60k-$80k range). Now the LCR, with it's .38+P, has some stopping power and up close is a powerful tool to stop a threat dead in its tracks. It is not that difficult to shoot either unless you've got manicured hands in which case you need to look at a good purse gun.

                              I went with the LCR X 3"
                              It is simply OK.
