Jun 24, 2023 · The TC9 is an 1873 Single Action Army (or “Peacemaker,” or “Model P,” for some of you) design chambered for the 9x19mm (9mm Luger) cartridge. While this may, at first, seem an odd choice for a revolver of this type, the pairing of this popular autopistol cartridge with the SAA design is truly inspired, in my view.

Revolversdon’t change much, and that’s why people tend to love them. It’s a barrel, an internal or external hammer, and a revolving cylinder. Not much to it, right? Ruger wanted to create a lightweight revolver, but they also wanted to produce an affordable model. Instead of using titanium or scandium, which drives up the revolvers’ price, they wen...

Admittedly I didn’t have love at first grip when I picked up the Ruger LCR. The boot-style grips are way too short for my big hands. When I shot the gun, it would buck and jump and cause me to readjust my grip with every shot. This had to go! I popped them off, slapped on a new set of Hogue Tamer grips, and never looked back.

Like all small J-frames, the Ruger LCR has some buck to it. Using 124 grain +P JHPs will give you a handful of jumpy gun with every shot. It’s not uncontrollable, but it’s not pleasant and feels like a solid high five to the hand. I prefer a 115-grain JHP load for self-defense. The increase in control is worth using the lighter round, especially wh...
The Ruger LCR 9mm will work without moon clips, and you can drop rounds into the chambers freely without any kind of issue. The real downside is that ejection might require a shake, a wiggle, or a stick to drive the cartridges outward. Also, don’t use steel rounds with these things. The steel expands and sticks into the chambers. Driving them out r...
The Ruger LCR9mm gives those who desire a revolver a modern option for the ole snub nose. It’s lightweight, has a great trigger, and provides you with a modern load of 9mm greatness. 9mm rounds offer a more potent round than the 38 Special and are much softer on the hand than 357 Magnum loads. Add in a great trigger and quick reloads, and what more...
Feb 7, 2024 · Ruger gives you a leg up in this department with an excellent double-action trigger—a must on a DAO gun. Smooth as polished marble, the friction-reducing cam system doesn’t stack and makes the 9-pound pull weight much more manageable.
