Screwball that does look pretty sturdy and after researching I see folks saying the LCR will fire loose rounds fine so I suppose I’m being overly cautious. I know you would have to probably manually knock out the cases if you shoot loose 9mm but multiple reloads are very unlikely for the use case of these revolvers.
Does the LCR have an administrative way to turn the cylinder without firing? In a revolver with a hammer you can pull the hammer back and spin the cylinder to ensure the clip doesn’t bind, I used to do this with every clip after loading them with the 625. That kept me from having a nasty surprise on a stage and I would want to do it with any moon clip I carried as a reload.
