I’ve had a couple of Taurus revolvers (85 and 605). Both were reliable, I eventually sold them - because I had other choices.
I’ve tried the LCR a few times, but ended up selling them off because firing with +P felt like I was smacking the palm of my hand with a ball peen hammer. They also seemed a smidge thicker than my comparable Smiths.
Presently I have a Smith 442, 49 and 340PD.
I also have a Colt DS and a couple of Cobras. My edc is a Colt Agent. Couldn’t be happier. It feels heavier than the 442, but has 20% greater capacity. Sadly, none of these Colts are made (or for that matter serviced) anymore.
I also have a SP101 with a factory bobbed hammer. If you could get used to the weight, that’s the direction I think I’d go. Only reason I don’t edc mine is because 99% of the time I’m pocket carrying and that little tank just doesn’t work for me…but a slim, OWB belt holster and I think I could grow to be very fond of that SP101.
