Why I like Revolvers Over Modern Autos

[mdauben]

I've many autos but have gravitated to trusting revolvers more. My autos have been perfectly reliable but I have found I prefer the .357 magnum, followed second by .45acp and then third by 9mm.

Sounds like we think alike, Ash. Its not that I distrust my autos (never had any real problems with them) but I'm finding I like my revolvers more and more and they are seeing much more carry time the last six months than they ever did in the past.

I've never owned an unreliable revolver.
I have owned unreliable autos.

I've never had a revolver choke on HP ammo, like some of my autos have.

I like both.
I trust revolvers more.
I often shoot revolvers better (THAT is the most important part).

BTW, police departments did not switch to autos because they are better or because they needed more rounds with which to miss the BG.

They bought autos because they perceived a need to do so, and because the gun companies convinced them so.

That, and because most of the cop-chicks couldn't handle the recoil of full-house .357s, and most did not have the strength to master the DA revolver trigger.
