Nothing wrong with single action sixguns, for those who use them well. I generally carry DA revolvers, but I went through a phase of wanting to try “cowboy action” shooting, when one of my LE colleagues was helping with planning and running the matches, and tended to inject some amount of practical/tactical in some of the stages. I trained to be fairly quick, kicking-out those empties, and reloading, so appreciate that the single action sixgun is a serious weapon. Until I retired from policing, I was not “allowed” to carry a single-action sixgun, when out and about, for defending myself or others, but that rule no longer applies. I am already feeling the first hint that repeatedly pulling a long-stroke DA trigger, with my less-healthy right hand, is going to become a problem, starting with the second knuckle of my right index finger. I also like the way that a traditional single-action design mitigates recoil; easy on the wrists.Gosh I kinda feel like I am in the wrong century. Most of you guys carry auto loaders. And here I am with single-actions.
Now and then, I do opt to carry a 4.75” or 5.5” USFA Single Action revolving pistol, because carrying a gun can be done, simply because it is fun. Better to carry a single action sixgun, because it is fun, than to leave a more-modern gun at home, because it has become a chore.
