The DAO LCR action incorporates Ruger’s friction-reducing cam for a smooth, non-stacking trigger pull. An internal hammer supports the snag-free design while maintaining reliable double-action-only operation.
Its stainless monolithic upper frame wears a matte black, black-oxide finish, and the high-strength stainless cylinder is heavily fluted and finished in black PVD. A polymer fire-control housing reduces weight and manages recoil without adding bulk.
Dimensions are optimized for carry and control: a 1.87 in barrel, overall length of 6.50 in, height of 4.50 in, and a 17.1 oz unloaded weight. The LCR’s left-side pushbutton cylinder latch and 5-round capacity support straightforward operation.
Sight picture comes from fixed iron sights with a replaceable pinned ramp front and an integral rear notch. The factory-installed Hogue Tamer Monogrip, overmolded rubber with finger grooves, provides secure purchase and consistent indexing.
Barrel markings read "RUGER LCR" and "357 MAG." This revolver is the LCR series, size class compact, with a 1:16 RH twist rate and was made in the USA at Ruger’s Newport, New Hampshire facility. Manufacturer part number and SKU are 05450.
