Anybody following Shotshow 2017? Anything new coming out in the revolver categories? Saw Colt came out with a new compact double action revolver. I've been looking at getting a Ruger LCR. I really like the price point. I've never owned a single revolver in my life, but want to get one for everyday carry. One that doesn't break the bank. (Got plenty that have "broken the bank" already lol)

I like the Smith Airweight in .38 This exactly. Hammerless. I have never carried it, but it is the gun that stays in my glove box.

After 5 years, I still like my LCR-357 a lot, for when the tiny size is needed.
I bought it because I liked the trigger and the perceived recoil to my hand was much better than the S&W versions at the time. Yes, it's snappy with full house loads but still quite manageable. From my perspective it is a "get off me gun" that is tiny enough to not get left at home as often as my 15 round 9mm compacts.
A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

LCR would get my vote due to size and weight.

For myself I'd wait until the Colt Cobra's started shipping and buy one. Of course I have a thing for Colt snubbies and already have a Detective Special and the original Cobra.
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

LCR and lots of caliber options, plus hammer or hammerless.
