Howdy.
I thought I had this matter decided, so I went to the LGS today with the notion of buying the LCR 357 unless something stopped me. I'd heard they were light, but yikes, the LCR weighs the same as a kids toy.
Then I picked up the SP101, and was surprised by how light it was. I'm used to the weight of a GP100 4", so both of these feel like puppy dogs.
I want to get a conceal carry (Illinois).
In terms of concealability (not weight, just things like contour, printing, etc), is there much difference between the SP101 and LCR in practice?
The big kicker for me is that the SP101 -- a nice hunk of steal -- is only $10 more than the polymer LCR.
Trying to decide.
