I am in the market for a pocket revolver and I only want to do this one time. I am very fond of the 442/642 S&W's and shoot them well. I've held but never fired the Ruger LCR and it seems like a nice gun.
I plan to use this as my primary EDC, home defense and something my wife can grab at the house if she needs it (she's not a shooter). I like the idea of wadcutters for better penetration and since I don't reload, I am looking at some of Buffalo Bore's ammo.
Is the LCR a better platform for long-term durability? That's really my only question since it's so new compared to the old Centennial aluminum framed Smiths which have been around forever.
By the way, I am only looking at the no-lock versions from S&W.
Thanks for any input either way!
