(NYSE: RGR) is proud to announce the new Ruger\u00ae LCR-22, an eight-shot revolver that offers all the features of the award-winning LCR\u00ae, chambered in the popular and economical .22 Long Rifle cartridge.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The LCR has proven its worth since its introduction in 2009, and has become an extremely popular compact revolver for concealed carry,&#8221; said Chris Killoy, Ruger Vice President of Sales and Marketing. &#8220;Our customers asked for a rimfire LCR for low cost practice at the range, and the LCR-22 fills that need. Furthermore, this gun disputes the notion that small-frame, rimfire revolvers come with heavy trigger pulls; the LCR-22&#8217;s non-stacking trigger pull is highly manageable. In fact, we believe the LCR has the best trigger pull of any factory double-action revolver on the market, and we urge our customers to visit their retailer and try it out for themselves,&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>The newest LCR maintains all the features of the critically acclaimed original LCR. The 1-7\/8&#8243; barrel and eight-shot cylinder are constructed of stainless steel, and the cylinder is highly fluted to reduce weight. The frame is machined from an aerospace-grade aluminum forging, and the fire control housing is molded from rugged and durable glass-filled nylon. The fire control system utilizes Ruger&#8217;s patented friction reducing cam that provides a uniquely smooth, non-stacking trigger pull.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the new LCR-22 revolver, or to learn more about the extensive line of award-winning Ruger firearms, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ruger.com\" target=\"_blank\">Ruger.com<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/Facebook.com\/Ruger\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook.com\/Ruger<\/a>.
