The only fair comparison I have to compare makers of a "similar" Revolver are on these 3...all late 70's or early 80s. All 4" fixed-sighted models.
I prefer the Colt Lawman 1st, prefer the Ruger Police Service Six 2nd, and the Smith and Wesson M13 3rd. I judge by shootability, accuracy, and the trigger pulls. However, this order is relative to these specific guns and NOT the makers themselves.
My favorite revolver of all time with long barrel is my Smith and Wesson M-27, followed by my favorite short barreled wheelgun, the new Colt King Cobra, and then Ruger Super Blackhawk is my most accurate .44 Mag. Prettiest Gun- Colt Python
I've learned to love Colts, Smiths and Rugers and I'll never pick a side and consider myself one sided.....it all boils down to the actual gun itself, how it feels and how it shoots. I have ones from all 3 makers that I love, and have had ones from all 3 makers that I didn't like much and have sent on down the line...
What I mean is, I feel there is more variance between guns of the same maker, then there is between the makers, in many cases. Exception, the Cylinder releases
Push forward- Smith, Pull Back - Colt, Push In- Ruger
I don't use revolvers for fighting, so not concerned with the ergonomics of a speed reload. I don't mind any of the Cylinder Releases from any of the big 3 makers, I can make any of them work fine.
I'd have to be able to pick up and shoot both of the OP'S guns for awhile and then maybe I could come up with an answer...but on looks alone, impossible, theyre both drop dead gorgeous.
