Hi, I'm pretty new to revolvers and recently decided to carry SW 360PD. Now I'm wondering what do I do for reloads. Which is the easiest to use, speed loader or speed strip? Any particular brand? Do these things work for different revolvers as long as they are also 5 shot like the 360PD?

UPDATE 5/18/2010: I just received my Ruger LCR from Ruger factory. It came with a note saying the cylinder, hammer, trigger, ejector, internal components and firing pin were replaced. The gun works fine now, and hopefully it won't have any more problems.

Ruger called me this morning saying they will send out UPS to pick up my gun. Apparently some of the service reps are new and didn't know they would pick up the shipping fees for such a case as this. I'll update on what happens with the LCR.

Unfortunately the gun store won't let me exchange it for anything. I thought they would do it since the gun was pretty much defective right out of the box and never shot, but nope. Too bad my relationship with that gun store has soured because of this. I bought two AR15s and 2 other handguns...

I'll call them tomorrow morning and see if I can convince them to cover the shipping charges. I've never had a gun fail on me so fast out of the box before.

Wow, really? Because from everyone else I heard, they all said S&W paid for the shipping and the repair.

I bought the gun at Doug's shoot n sport in SLC area. I thought they'd just let me change it to a different gun, seeing how it's a brand new gun that's been in my possession only for two days, but nope. They said no exchanges on guns. So, I think I'm stuck dealing with Ruger now.

That's a good point. I'll try that. I don't want to come off sounding like I'm trying to flame Ruger though. I've bought two Ruger rifles and two other Ruger handguns that have been fantastic. Just surprised by this service part.

lol, that'd be funny. I don't think they care about one customer though.. they might treat me better if I was the head of a police dept with a large order.

I called Ruger and they said the customer sends it to them and they don't send UPS for pick up. So, I'm not sure how I can get Ruger to do that when they told me already that they won't.

I did that, I wanted to just change it to a Smith and Wesson revolver. The gun store said they won't exchange guns and they'll charge me $25 for shipping to Ruger. At this point, I think I'm stuck with the $25 fee. Should've just bought the S&W...or do they not cover shipping for their...

I bought a Ruger LCR two days ago. While dry firing, the trigger locked up, and I was unable to pull the trigger back. So, this morning, I called Ruger service dept and they said I have to pay to send the gun back to them. Now, I've read many times how Ruger had an excellent customer...

Yup, it's got an internal lock. The gun comes with two copies of the key. The key hole is in the grip, so in order to access it, the grip has to be removed.

I like the Glock 26, but it's pretty heavy for pocket carry. LCR was pretty much perfect for me until it locked up. Right now I'm leaning toward the 637 or the 360PD.

That's true. I've had my Springfield XD fail to go into battery twice. But, that I can just tap it in and make it go, again. I've heard that Glock trigger springs breaking, but they still work even with a broken trigger spring. The LCR just locked up with no solution. If this happens during...

BTW, I'm not trying to flame Ruger. I have several Ruger firearms and they are all fine weapons. And, from what I heard, Ruger customer service is excellent. My question is should I go with the S&W 637 which has a proven track record. Or, am I not aware of 637 problems? If 637 has fails for...

I really liked the gun, except for the locking up part. My fear is what happens if I get it replaced and it locks up again, except this time, I'm in a self-defense situation? Since this is a ccw gun, and not a range gun, I need it to be reliable.

Are there any known problems with 637? I don't mind if there has been in the past that have been corrected. I guess I bought the LCR a few years too early.

Ah, I meant 637 with the exposed hammer. I liked the single action capability.

So, should I go with a Glock or...? I'm looking for a pocket carry gun of stronger than 380ACP.
