I looked at the LCR and I really liked the factory grip on it better than the smith j-frame grip and was looking into buying one tell my brother went to Metlocks and talked to them about the LCR. The salesman said this is what he didn't like about them, he picked it up and shook it and it raddled. when my brother told me that I decided against the LCR. I recently purchased a 638. I wanted a 642 but bought this instead and it has grown on me. Now I am glad I bought it. Now I just got to get a crimson trace grip for it. I can't decide between the Lg-305 or the Lg-405.
1911's rattle too, are they going on your dont buy list?
