I picked up an LCR in 22lr for students to use during ccw training. Had one student run the class with his LCR in 38spl. very nice revolver, great trigger for a DAO, small p/grip yet surprisingly manageable. I liked the guys 38 regarding overall performance and accuracy.
Not a big DAO fan, however the 22 was a must have item. I suggest you give the LCR consideration when revolver shopping.
YMMV.
