Wow, your .45 sucks BALLS.

I agree that reliability is important. Also, this reliability issue of revolvers being better than autoloaders is overly exaggerated. Nowaday, a decent auto coupled with the right ammunition is just as reliable as any. Neither one of my Beretta's has ever jammed on me except after firing about 100+ rounds without cleaning it. And up to now (knock on wood) no factory round has ever failed to go bang bang for me.... and I'm a real high volume shooter.
But as you say except this , or that and it is dependable with FACTORY ammo .
I have to make no such exceptions with my S&W 586 or my Taurus 669 , S&W 19 or even a cheap old Rossi 972 all in 357 .
...revolvers are in fact obsolete.
Hmm, well if you read my first reply in this thread again, you'll see the part where I wrote "...Assuming you have a decent caliber (9mm and up)." *snicker*
I've been out of the gun forum loop for a long while, and just getting back into it with a possible purchase of a Smith and Wesson 28-2 shortly.

Must be your holster (or maybe your build). I have no trouble comfortably carrying large revolvers concealed (up to and including a five-inch Model 27)--a three-inch Model 65LS (a K-frame) carries like a dream.Much as I like my .357s, even a K frame is bulky in an IWB.
Um... ever consider tuning that extractor?With the .45, I have brass flying back into my face, sometimes hitting me in the head and cutting me open.

How do you "learn" a shotgun?
