Thanks all, my dad picked up a .22 version I'm gonna try that out before I pick one up, but I would probably go with the .38

I find the LCR .38 fine with target loads - just shot one cylinder +Ps to see what it is like (hold on).
Inside home type distance - I practice 7 yards (max home distance) - with lasermax and .38 target loads it is accurate enough for two to the chest and one in the head.
Is this how you have been trained to shoot?
Jeff Cooper pioneered this idea for use primarily with the 1911, but it works well with any firearm. If you practice the quick re-acquire to the head enough, it helps with your fundamentals too- not sure why.
All I know is that when I first started trying to shoot with my bad hand it felt COMPLETELY WRONG. But after doing the 2-1 drill a few times left handed, it just started to feel more natural.
Same thought here. Sounds like a different gun. The LCR .38 will pound your shooting hand into sawdust if you start pumping cylinder after cylinder of high-octane .38Sp +P rounds downrange, especially FBI load:

FBI load has pounding recoil even in my 30oz S&W Model 66.
