The Ruger 5431 is Ruger's LCR, a compact and lightweight revolver designed to offer a uniquely smooth trigger pull and effectively manage recoil. This small-frame revolver boasts a monolithic frame, complete with a grip peg which accepts a diversity of grip styles. The high-strength, intensively fluted stainless steel cylinder is crafted with a robust PVD finish to ensure long-lasting durability.
Its revolutionary, patented cam reduces friction, which results in a smooth, non-stacking trigger pull. The innovative, patented polymer fire control housing maintains the proper dimensional relationships of the fire control components, significantly lessens weight, and assists recoil reduction. All LCR revolvers are furnished with a replaceable, pinned ramp front sight featuring a white bar.
LCRx models come with an external hammer enabling single-action mode firing. The LCRx revolvers in 38 Special come with a +P rating and possess a frame crafted from 7000 series aluminum of aerospace-grade. This particular model is finished in matte black, fitted with a 3-inch barrel, an adjustable black blade rear sight, and equipped with a full-sized black Hogue Tamer Monogrip for added comfort and control.
