Should have used one of these I guess.
As a person who enjoys sarcastic humor from both ends, I have to say that I've had to be very careful about using it on the web. It's very difficult to recognize without the non-verbal cues that face-to-face conversation provides...Guess I should give up on sarcastic humor.
Based on what Denis says Ruger claims, it looks like you'll get about 10 years of service out of it at that level of usage.I for one am going to continue to use my LCR as I believe it was intended. As it is my primary CCW I need to practice with it, and it is my intention to shoot 50-100 rounds a month out of it.
while you might assist our meager ability to set our own expectations, until you have the experience with the LCR that you obviously have with the 1911 and no doubt other guns,
The above is true whether dry-firing or live-firing. Moreover, snap-snapping-away as opposed to smoothly squeezing the trigger when dry-firing can do additional damage in addition to just racking up the number of dry-fire trigger pulls.The hand in a J-Frame Smith has less than half the bearing surface to interact with the cylinder's ratchet than an N-Frame Smith's hand does. It can't be expected to hold up under wear exactly the same.
