[QUOTE="Veritas, post: 4221731, member: 55012"] Sort of like AK’s never jam either…until they do. I have had plenty of wheel gun failures even with high-quality revolvers. If you run anything mechanical hard enough, you will find it is not infallible. Modern semi automatics have become extremely reliable as well, so this is sort of an old piece of accepted wisdom that doesn’t hold up. I carry a revolver for very niche reasons, for example a J frame fits in the sweat pants pockets easily for running the trash cans out to the curb at 10PM because as you were getting into bed, you realized you forgot to put them out. If it is no gun or a five shot revolver it’s an easy decision. Also, if I am shooting at 25 or 50 yards for accuracy there’s nothing I like better than my 4 inch Smith 627. [/QUOTE]
