I can't really make that claim myself, since I have a few old bequeathed semi-autos (ppk, p38, one commander 1911 etc...), but the majority of what I have in stock has cylinders. Furthermore, I don't really see any SA purchases in my future, but I could see any one of a number of different wheel guns vying for my meager discretionary budget.

Anyone here totally committed (or fit to be committed, as it were...)?
;)
 
Right now I only have revolvers (not counting rifles and shotgun). I have owned bottom feeders in the past and will probably again in the future. But for now I love the way revolvers look and shoot.
 
I decided to simplify life, and get rid of guns I don't shoot regularly. Sold several, dropped a couple of calibers from the lineup, and stabilized at 12 revolvers, no bottom feeders. I do have traditionally semi calibers. 5 of my revolvers are 45acp, 3 10mm, but those cartridges all fit in the circular magazine. 4 of my revolvers are for CCW/PD, the rest for range and hunting. I simply have no desire for a semi. I load all my ammo, and appreciate not having to chase empties all over the range. I'm not a believer in the spray and pray theory of personal defense and don't roam the malls hoping for an action movie two-fisted hundred-round shootout, so I don't feel at all undergunned.
 
Have owned semi-autos in the past but currently own only revolvers - S&W model 38 and S&W model 642
 
I thought I'd only EVER own revolvers........
I doubt that I'll ever go down the "plastic fantastic" road but after aquiring an FEG PA-63 (no plastic) I'll have to admit owning a semi. It just does things very well and is a nice carry gun. My next purchase will be another revolver though ;), they're just too reliable, versatile and good looking.
 
Just revolvers for me. Have one semi-auto that, while I technically own it, belongs to my daughter. Got my eye on a T/C Pro Hunter with pistol grip for a single shot handgun.
 
Me too.
I've got a Rossi 851 and a S&W 642.
That's it for handguns, but I also have an old Stevens 12 gauge. I'm thinking about maybe adding a S&W MP40 one day.

Well, all but 2 (G-19 and a CZ-82)are revolvers...but as to how many total...well, I can never be sure if the Mrs. is readings this... ;)
 
Almost.

I've got one little Bauer .25. The others are wheel guns.

I don't have very many handguns, though. As I expand my collection, I'll probably add several automatics (mostly JMB designs, with a few exotic foreign pistols for flavor). However, most will be revolvers.
 
Nothing but revolvers here. I've been wanting to buy a shotgun and a rifle, but even there I would like to find some obscure revolver type long gun, or build one myself. :D

I hate autoloaders with a very serious passion.

I've made three exceptions: 1. duty and 2. off-duty Glocks (necessary tools of the trade) and 3. a 1911. Other than that, nothing but revolvers. I assume we're talking strictly about our handguns, and not our long guns.
 
If I had it to do all over again I would probably stick with revolvers only, but I have several semi-autos and really like them. My XD9 and CZ RAMI are great. I don't really look at autos much now, though. There's just something about those wheelies.
 
After selling my MKII last autumn, my roundgun metamorphosis was complete. My wife owns the only evil-bottom-feeders in the house - and I don't touch them - a Walther P22 and a Seecamp .32. In fact, my only non-S&W revolvers are my 1895 Nagants and a Ruger Old Army c&b. I have fewer handguns these days - but I have what I want and enjoy.

The only handguns I have currently besides revolvers are five 1911s. Otherwise it's all revolvers. I don't see a need for any more autos for, hmm, the rest of my life. There are still a few more revolvers I want, though.
 
Wheelguns only. 5 x 38/357s and 1 x 22lr.

Last 1911 was sold a year ago in a caliber standardization move.

Click to expand...

Interestingly (at least to me, of course), this is a line of thought that I have been considering; I can't very well afford to stockpile every round in production, so I tend to keep on hand some .357 and, er, uh, some more .38...

The only fly in that particular ointment is this sentimental attachment I have to my one 3-inch 5 shot .44 special...

I suppose the .38 in various loadings is the perfect "wife", while the .44 probably falls more under the "mistress" category...

;) ;)
