I have a .38 snub nose Taurus. One of the most fun guns I own and great for pocket carry or keeping in the truck. Deadly accurate at close distances. Congratulating on your purchase, will last you a lifetime with proper care.

Excellent choice! I carry a LCR in. 357 every day, and its a very easy gun to live with. Problem with handguns is that they're an awful lot like cigars: the slippery slope starts with just 1or 2, and then all of a sudden you've got one for every day of the week. Or two........ or three.

Nice looking pair of snubbies you have there.

I have a heard many good reports about the Ruger LCR's. Let us know how they both shoot.

Thanks, I plan on taking very good care of these as they are going to both be carried. I was a littl e too vigorous and some of the black coating came off in the chamber, no worries...

Both are decent handguns. If you ever get the chance, id recomend picking up a 1911 some day. no collection is complete without a 1911 of some sort. just my $.02
Already looking at one, have to find one I like thoough

that ruger makes a nice pocket gun...enjoy.

After the dog goes to the vet we are going for our ccw class

I just picked up a new Springfield XD .45 off of gunbroker new in the box for $379! Hell of a deal!
Nice score

Ruger shoots beautiful. Reasonably accurate at about 20yds...but that's me getting used to 357 ammo.

I saw the pink lady in the gun case when I was buying my Kel-Tec and instantly took a photo with my cell phone and emailed it to my wife. She LOVED it! :starrylov
