If you were to buy a Ruger LCR for primary conceal carry,and also shoot every month to stay very proficient which one would you buy,and why?

After my conversation with Bill Rogers, I would say without question the 9mm LCR. He told me that the .22 and 9mm LCR revolvers shoot POA/POI at 25 yards, where the .38 models (the school has 12) shoot high and left. Further, he said he can reload the 9mm LCR closer in speed to a semi-auto than a revolver. He has designed proper stocks (grips to some people) for them as well as very trim moon clip holders. It is his current BUG.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
I'd go with the 9mm also. Least expensive effective caliber.
Interesting. The LCR is probably my favorite snub just on account of the trigger, which I like more than the standard 442/642

How many people are "very proficient" with an LCR in the world?
Why the LCR as opposed to a subcompact 9mm semiauto?
Is there a link to or a picture floating around of Bill Rogers stocks for the LCR?
To the original poster -this is not my recommendation for a daily carry LCR but what I would like is a 327 Federal magnum to play around with. I'd like to try some different loads in 32 S&W Long and 32 H&R Magnum on my reloading press. I like the 6 shots in that LCR frame.

I know Bill Rogers is. I asked him about video shooting it on the Rogers Range, and he said he would take some. If I carried one, I would be, and I sure hope anyone on PF with one, would be.
Runs it in his support side front pocket.
I am not sure, but he said he would send me a set and moon clip holders, so when I receive them I can take pictures.

What is your goal?
If your goal is to be serious about self defense, take the LCP you just bought, get some training, and get a few cases of practice ammo. Same as I said in the .22 mag vs .380 thread.
If your goal is something else, let us know.
