Here's my first post on the matter where I laid out why I don't use them. I've already said that I could have done a better job at making it clear that it contained opinions gleaned from my own...
No, it was more about the reduced capacity of a revolver possibly necessitating a reload that would not be necessary with a higher capacity semi auto. It was just an example.
Because of...
And yet, at no time did I tell anyone else not to use one. :confused:
I wore my Skynet shirt to the grocery store last summer and the cashier who looked like a teenager asked me if that was where I worked.
When my oldest was 3 or 4 and youngest was a baby, we were approached by two dope addicts outside of a Chuck E Cheese of all places. We were heading there for a birthday party. I had the diaper bag...
Yes, a time when revolvers were the soup de jour and they were on par with what they were running up against in the street. That's not the case anymore. How many police departments are still...
From past experience shooting them, like I said. Not just j frames, though if I were to implement a revolver into my life that's likely what it would be, in the role of a NY Reload/BUG. If that...
I think this is a good idea, but I wonder how many non-shooter type authors will find value in it. I would guess that a very small number of the readers will pick up on inaccuracies like most of PF...
We'll be spending some time in Coeur d'Alene this spring and summer looking at houses and property so I'll likely be in touch if nothing more than to buy you an adult beverage or several, but I never...
None, I haven't had the itch to incorporate a revolver into my life in a couple years. It's about 1000 through each of my gen 5 G17s when they were new to verify reliability, and a little over 3000...
There are differing opinions and reasoning behind the carry of an additional magazine(s).
You have the "mags are a common failure point in semi autos" argument, which is valid, and you have the...
Manhunter is excellent. I feel like it doesn't get the credit it deserves because it's kinda overshadowed by Mann's other work.
I shoot quite a bit, although a couple surgeries in past 14 months didn't afford me as many opportunities as I would have liked, but I still managed a little over 5000 pistol rounds from the summer...
This doesn't even crack the top ten of things Sig has screwed up but it certainly adds to the shame they must feel on a daily basis.
You're worried about losing a magazine some random place but you keep guns in your vehicle?
5 bucks says GJM breaks at least 5 of them in 2021.
I can appreciate the outside the box thinking, but for now until proven otherwise a participation trophy is all I can give Leupold on this one.

I too can search google for photos to support my statements.

Probably similar, though I wouldn't use a Walther PPK for a primary carry gun so it doesn't matter. The only...
I was referring to j frame and LCR type revolvers that are the most commonly carried revolvers at present time. I guess we have different definitions of worse.
I mean, I know what I know and that's every revolver I've shot has given up one or more things to a semi auto. It's cool that you like them though and just because I don't that doesn't mean you have...
For RMR milling, I want either the recoil bosses or the Zev threaded posts. The Kit Badger slide had neither iirc so all the force is being applied to the screws. Hard pass on that.
I would...
My issue with revolvers as a carry for self defense option isn't the lack of capacity, but all the other things that make them less than ideal. Wonky grips, terrible sights, and the ergonomics of a...
Okay.
Because you said this. Why do you care if it raises their eyebrows?
I have big hands. My pinky wants to dangle off a G19. That's why I prefer the G17. Full firing grip. I can't get that with a G26 or G43 and it negatively impacts my ability to shoot the two...
