Don't own a 45lc but do own a .357 Magnum.

Shooting the 357 is way too much fun to care about the recoil. Once you fire your first 3 rounds, you're going to be hooked for the rest of your life. Although I must say that the revolver I own has a ported barrel and its MUCH more comfortable to shoot with that. However, I did fire my friend's Colt King Cobra and as awesome as it was, it completely destroyed my hearing and after a while my hand started hurting.

Practice makes perfect.
