Great little pocket gun. No recoil and decent trigger. Surprisingly accurate for a short barrel 22lr. Arrived fast from Buds....where I do all my online gun shopping.

A very nice revolver. The best for pocket defense gun. I wish they made an 8 round 22 mag. I will be the first to buy it.

I bought the LCR on 22 caliber for my wife, to start shooting with a light caliber and a simple to use revolver. I may be buying a second one for me, it really is a fun plinker!

High quality little 22 that I just can’t figure out what it’s purpose is. To each their own.

Very well made gun. Wanted a 22 revolver and couldn't be happier with it.

I wanted a lightweight snubnose revolver in .22 LR, and I was deciding between this and the Smith and Wesson 43C. I'm pleased with the Ruger LCR. My purpose for this gun was (1) I didn't have a revolver and wanted one because I think they're cool (2) I wanted a double action only revolver as a training aid to help with trigger control (3) I wanted a handgun in .22 LR because I already have other firearms in that caliber; if I got a .38 or .357 it's gonna be a lot more expensive to shoot and now that's another caliber I need to stock, and .22 reliability issues are mitigated by getting it in a revolver, and (4) coming from the world of striker-fired semiautos without safeties, I wanted something I'd feel comfortable pocket carrying on occasion without feeling like I'm risking a negligent discharge. Concealability / comfort: It's very lightweight, and the dimensions are concealable. In a sticky hoslter it's very comfortable. Haven't carried in in kydex yet. Trigger: I like the heavy double action trigger pull. Good for training and for avoiding a negligent discharge. Action: I'm a fan of the internal hammer, because there's one less thing to snag, and it forces me to train on the double action trigger instead of giving into the temptation to cock the hammer and go single action. Caliber: It's a .22, so it's cheap to shoot. More range time makes me a happy guy. Yeah, I know it's not the most powerful caliber, but it's a gun, and that sure beats a sharp stick. Haters gonna hate, but anyone in my family can shoot this. It's fun, easy, and cheap to shoot, which means you will actually practice with it more, which means you will build confidence, which means you are more likely to carry it. As they say, the .22 in your pocket is better than the .45 you left at home. Accuracy: I'm pleased with the accuracy. For an average shooter like me for training and self-defense distances, it works just fine. Aesthetics: I think it looks nice, but I am not overly concerned with looks. If you want a more classic look then go with something else. Fit: I have big hands, and the grips feel nice. I don't plan on changing them out.

The Ruger LCR 22LR has a comfortable grip, a smooth , but taut trigger pull , and very little recoil. This revolver will serve multiple purposes.

The Ruger LCR 22 LR is one of 6 calibers that Ruger has currently in the LCR configuration and I have ordered 4 of them thru Buds. I was happy with the purchase and the delivery from Buds. I have ordered several other guns since then from Buds as well. I also appreciate their email notice system when a product is out of stock....I have now ordered 2 different pistols when I was notified they were back in stock. Buds does a great job keep you informed on where your order is and when it should be at your FFL. Will definitely re-order from them in the future when I order the 38 and the 9mm.

Solid transaction from Bud's. Double action rimfire triggers are heavy by design and changing springs may cause ignition problems. As is it's too uncomfortable for my wife to shoot, which is why I bought it. Even my finger gets tender after 2-3 cylinders. It's solid and fun to shoot and it will loosen up a bit with use.

Owned the Ruger LCR 38 special and bought it right when they came out years ago. Great gun and decided to add the LCR .22 LR to the collection. Great shooter and saving money on the ammo. This .22 is a great gun for range and even concealed carry if needed. Thanks Buds.

It's a well known fact Ruger manufacturers quality firearms, so I will not waste words. My LCR22 purchase has been as expected, GOOD. The Pistol is CCW friendly, light weight, 8 shot and dependable. This Pistol compliments my Ruger LCR38 in practice mode, even though the 22 has a slightly different trigger pull the ammo is still more economical.

This is the revolver that I used to train my wife for concealed carry. It has a good, relatively easy to pull trigger. It is double action only and has a consistent pull from start to finish. It comes with a nice pair of Hogue grips. This revolver holds 8 rounds. Now, many will scoff at the idea of a .22LR for self defense; but, if the user can reliably hit what they are aiming at, that is what really matters. Only hits count. My wife is recoil sensitive. So, this gun was perfect. Very little recoil, smooth operation, lightweight in the hand, and it points well. Plus, Ruger reliability and durability. What's not to like? This revolver is awesome. Buy one! Thanks, BudsGunShop.

Over my 40yrs of shooting and 30yrs of collecting this is the ONLY .22LR wheel gun I have bought and I bought it only a few months ago, I was always thinking of getting it but never did until recently. Price was below msrp when I got but still it is kinda high for a 8 shot .22 as it cost more than my LCR 38 or just a 100 or so less than a 357. I don't own much revolvers just a 357 python and 2 others. Most if not all my ** handguns are in .40 or .45. My carry gun is a HK P2000sk or SIG P229 compact both in .40. Now I do not recommend a 22 for defense use but as the saying goes a .22 is better than a stick. So some times I just carry this tiny LCR .22 in a pocket holster with 2 speed loaders and its so lite it feels like you are not carrying anything. I use defensive HVHP 22 ammo and yes rimfire sometimes gets lite primer strikes or duds. But that what makes a 22 wheel gun a viable carry gun as if you do get a dud you just need to pull the trigger again, unlike say a semi-auto 22 where they can really jam up. But so far this gun has zero problems and eats everything I feed it. I only own about 5 .22 firearms 2 handguns and 3 rifles. And this little LCR is by far the most fun, easy to load, shoot and very economical as I can buy 5000rnds of .22 for $500. This gun sells out fast so if you see it for a good price get it you won't be disappointing and its much cheaper than the overpriced S&W counterpart. Lastly been a Buds customer for 12+yrs purchased near mid 2 digits of firearms from Buds alone (I also shop at various online shops and distributors) and like always it was simple, fast and hassle free. Though at times shipping may be slow it just depends, but no worries, even if you do have a problem, they always have come through asap.

Got it for my wife's nightstand. I have a few LCR's and they are great guns. Bud's has great service. Shout out Team Bud's for life.

I was so happy to receive this gun. Exactly what I wanted. Fits snuggly inside my jacket pocket (conceal carry permit). Lightweight and reliable. Service from Bud's was exceptional. Fast and reliable. Would definitely but from them again.

Ruger LCR’s are great no mater what it’s chambered in, and there are a lot of choices when it comes to what model to choose. this one had pretty much zero recoil.
