What's the bullet weight? I can see 147s possibly causing an issue, cz autos hate them
Why can't my ammo completely fit into the cylinder ( Ruger LCR 9mm revolver)

It may simply be that the OP is dealing with slightly undersized chambers. Had a 3" M-60 that simply would not chamber some of my .38s, factory included. It had to go back to Smith.

Just reflected on this; the heavier bullets could extend into the chamber throats. Good question.

Pictures make it easier to help you if people can see the problem you're describing. Does all 9mm ammo you've tried fit the same way? Does the cylinder close when loaded? The rounds should headspace on the case mouths in the chambers to allow you to shoot the gun without moonclips. If you're not using moonclips the rounds will not sit flush to the back of the cylinder because the chambers are cut for them to stick out slightly to allow space for the moonclips.

pictures of ammo not seating properly in the gun, so maybe someone can figure out what's going on.

Buy a Dillon 9 mm case gauge it will tell you real quick if it's the ammo , I have them for all hand gun calibers , rifle autoloaders as well . I would have these even if I did not reload , they are that handy of a tool .

I brought my gun to a FFL store, I asked the boss to fill 2-or 3 different 9mm ammo into the gun , he did, the ammo could fill into without any problem, so I am happy because the gun itself has not problem, just try other ammo.
thanks.
thanks.

This seems to be a common issue with Ruger. Send it back to them and get them to fix it.
I had the same problem with a Ruger Blackhawk in 357/9mm. Both cylinders must have been cut with a worn cutter, as both had what seemed to be undersized chambers and issues with both chambering and extraction.

How much I totally have to pay if I send back to Ruger include when they ship back to me?
the gun is OK for using many kind of ammo, only certain ammo has
issue, maybe right now I don't have to send back to Ruger.

guy, just call them and ask. they want you to be happy and have a reputation for great customer service. you may not need to send it back at all, just say what is going on. if it is a problem, you want them to fix it anyways if something is not right.

are you going to tell the buyer it might have a problem? and that is why you are selling it?

The reason I want to sale or trade this gun because this one is good for carry not for range shooting, but I am still considering if sale it or keep , the gun itself has no problem.
