I bought an LCR today on a whim. I bought the model with the XS night sight and boot grip.
I've dry fired it extensively, but not live fire. I love the LCR - except the trigger reset. The reset feels like the a J Frame that has the weakest trigger return spring from a Wolf reduced power spring kit. That - coupled with a longer reset that a J - induces me to short stroke it regularly.
It's fine if I slow [dry] fire, but dry firing at speed - a speed at which one would shoot in a defensive situation - makes me short stroke.
I dry fired the LCR back-to-back with my J's - and I don't short stroke the J's even when pulling the trigger as fast as I can.
The trigger return spring is not like a J - not sure how to explain it. A snubbie is meant for CCW IMO - and Murphy's Law being what it is - I don't need a snubbie that I regularly short stroke.
Yes - I could train with it and probably get used to it, but I have a lot of time and rounds through a J Frame and I don't see the benefit.
My search for a better mousetrap just bought me a mousetrap that doesn't work for me.
Oh well - anyone got a Glock 26 from trade
