Took my new - as of yesterday PM - LCR .357 to the range this morning; brought the SR40c along too.
(used .38 Special only) Ran 40 rounds of Blazer aluminum cased LRN through the LCR, target 10 yards away. Shooting ~6" low and 3" left. When I hold the white of the front sight on the top of the rear sight notch, elevation is about right. Shot 10 rounds of Hornady Critical Defense 110 gr. +P, same sight picture works. Slightly more recoil with the +P, but no pain and the gun stays put in my hand. No malfunctions, no FTF, FTL, no stovepipes, none of that semiauto stuff.
Buster & company aren't kidding, the trigger is nice. There is also a definite 'notch' just before let-off, if you sneak up on it. Not a whole lot of use in a 1.8" snubbie, but it's there.
The HiViz front sight and the pocket holster are supposed to arrive tomorrow. I can play with the re-sighted gun and the holster over the weekend, drawing and dry firing on snap-caps. Range time early next week.
Ran a couple dozen rounds through the SR40c - I'm beginning to get the hang of it, hitting the 8" target most of the time at 10 yards, 2 rounds in 2.5 seconds or so. Obviously need to gain both ways before taking on zombies that dodge.
