You don't have to rotate magazines with revolvers when stored loaded. I know magazine spring set and mag rotation is whole nother can of worms. With a revolver all you need to do is blow out the pocket lint every now and then
Whoever told you I carry a revolver was lying to you.Reliability? Ease of use? Nostalgia?
Seems like the capacity and reload disadvantages would hinder this choice, but I'm sure there are some that still prefer a wheel gun.
I own 2 revolvers that I carry for self defense.
Smith and Wesson 686 with a 6" barrel length. This gun is always loaded with Remington's 158 gr. JHP ammunition...
Ruger GP-100 with a 6" barrel. This gun is always loaded with Remington's 125 gr. JHP ammunition...
Why revolvers? Accuracy is better than and semi-auto I have ever fired, and I have shot some very accurate pistols!
They NEVER jam!
A 357 magnum is a better one-shot-stop than any 9mm or .40 caliber semi-auto.
If it ever came down to a worse case scenario and I had to draw and fire my weapon to save my family and or innocent bystanders, I would rather do it with a revolver.
This is strictly personal preference and nothing else!
Perfect!!!!!!!! Easy to put in/out of multiple types of pockets. More likely to NOT have any issues with cycling/firing warm hollow point ammo.I've been carrying nothing but a five round S&W 442 .38 Spl. in my right front pocket for many years....never leave home without it.
