No, but I like the look, and the hammer.

I've not actually looked at one but, saw some youtube videos. Seems like a good one but, pretty much everything Ruger makes is good.

I've been hoping for this exact model for some time now. I love my LCR .357 snubbie and have always been a fan of .357 in general. Would make a great hiking gun.

This could make a great carry gun.  I also like the looks of the 8-round Redhawk, though it would serve a different purpose.

I'm pretty impressed with Ruger's effort to expand their lineup of revolvers.  I just hope we don't see any other new models with problems like the 7-round GP100 had.

What the hell!  Are we twins or something? I’ve been waiting on this exact revolver for several years too and I’m wanting for hiking!!!

I'd like to have one. But, I'd only  shoot .38s out of it.

38's would work just fine but I like the option of .357 for bear country. I use the Gold Dot short barrel .357's in the snub version with not much more recoil than .38+p so I'm sure the recoil won't be any worse in the 3 inch model, probably less. In bear country though I would use 180 grain hardcast rounds and live with the extra recoil. Hopefully I wouldn't have to use it though.
