To the OP:

The .38 LCR has an aluminum cylinder and weighs 13.5 ounces while the .357 has a steel cylinder and weighs 21.3 ounces. So, does the extra weight mean anything to you? If not, I would go with the .357. BTW, as you know, the 9mm also has a steel cylinder, but weighs only 17.4 ounces. I really like mine.
