What’s Included
- Ruger LCR .357 Magnum revolver
The LCR’s construction centers on a 400-series stainless-steel monolithic upper frame mated to a lightweight polymer fire-control housing. Its stainless cylinder is aggressively fluted to reduce mass and treated with a PVD finish. The factory-stated weight is approximately 17.1 oz.
This model uses a double-action-only, internal-hammer system. Ruger’s friction-reducing cam is designed to deliver a smooth, non-stacking trigger pull. A left-side push-button latch controls cylinder release.
Sighting is straightforward and durable: a replaceable, pinned ramp front sight with serrations pairs with a fixed, integral rear trench sight. The snub-length 1.87 in barrel keeps the package compact while maintaining a clear sight picture.
Chambered in .357 Magnum, this LCR also accepts .38 Special and .38 Special +P. Capacity is five rounds. The barrel is marked with "READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL – NEWPORT, NH USA," and the revolver was manufactured in the USA in 2013.
