The LCR (Lightweight Compact Revolver) introduced a polymer fire control housing mated to a stainless or aluminum cylinder assembly, resulting in a snub-nose weighing 13.5 oz. The friction-reducing cam in the trigger mechanism produces one of the smoothest factory double-action pulls of any small revolver. The monolithic frame design eliminates the traditional side-plate, improving rigidity. Rated for +P ammunition.
