The Ruger LCR has no exposed hammer, and even on a carry revolver with
an external hammer, it's likely to be DA and you still have to pull the
trigger. It's only 1.3" wide.

Semi-auto pistols are more complicated, and there are more possibilities
of jams, FTFs, et cetera. Pull the trigger on a revolver and it goes BANG!

To each his own.

My 1934 is more like 1.06" wide and it has never failed to go bang in
thousands of rounds fired over the 50 years I have had it

As I said earlier, it fits my hand well and I can point it very
instinctively without really aiming.
That is important in low light or when things are happening very fast.



Ahh, but can you hit a two liter at 15 yards with that .380?

I seldom train at 15 yards with a pistol but at 7 yards I will hit 5
in 5 seconds just about every time.
When I was shooting a lot I would bet you I could hit 5 beer cans in 5
seconds and then double or nothing in 4 seconds.
I was shooting almost every day tho since I had the range in the
house.


Your gift should arrive soon. It'll let you shoot two liters at any
distance you can without making a mess or attracting ants.

I mostly practice at 25 yards with handguns. My long distance vision is
good, my close in vision sucks without glasses, and holding out a pistol
so I can focus on the sights and also the target for some reason seeks
to work for me at that distance. With my one lens eyeglasses (reading
lens on the right eye), I do pretty well with "iron sights" at most
distances.

Hey, krotch said it, it must be true!
