I have always owned automatics but have felt the draw towards a magnum revolver lately. I've got some questions:

1. What's with the circle jerk on Manurhin and why are they better?

2. Pros and cons of .327 / .357 / .41 / .44 Magnum?

3. Which revolvers hold the most aesthetic? Mateba need not apply.

4. Is Ruger utter shit?

No, in fact the GP100 is one of the best .357 revolvers you can get today.

357 or 327 anywhere that doesnt have grizzly or polar bears. But 357 is more widely availble and you can shoot 38spl out of it

any Ruger model, mostly sp/gp/ or security six, but also their single actions

Mahurins are rare and, desite my ribbing the OP, pretty nicely made. They were the chosen sidearm of french special police.

Unfortunately we dont get a lot in the states and the last batch that came in was pretty beat up police trade ins, scalpers bought a lot of them, and the last one I saw on armslist had little finish left and was going for $850. You can buy a new stainless Smith 686 for that.

so quality and rarity make them desirable.

For what purpose?

Although the 66 frame is more cute, I prefer the 586/686 models. Easier to reload with speedloaders and ejects the empty brass better.
Also heavier, more roundness to grab and less worry to break it, if you give it a slap.

I was thinking occasional carry. I will be getting the 4" 686 plus no matter what, I was just wondering if there was a reason to stay 686 in the more compact line.
>>
>>33837558
he's right though, a good smith job can significantly lighten a pull.

do you mean the DA pull specifically? for instance i shot a super redhawk the other day and the SA trigger was maybe a tad over 3lbs.

the ironic thing about some of the revolvers "made for women" i.e. 22/22mags with less recoil, they have way heavier pulls due to being rimfire cartridges

There's literally no reason to get a 66.
The K-frame isn't suited to magnum-heavy firing schedules, and even if that weren't the case, stepping up to the L-frame gets you an extra shot for a mere 2 oz. in the same barrel length.
Also consider the 3" 686P, which actually weighs a tenth of an ounce less than the 4.25" 66 despite having a full underlug and a beefier frame.

Someone told me most new revolvers come with some sort of internal lock that they actually bore a hole in the side of the revolver for you to access. Apparently Smith and Wesson are famous for this?

Is this true? Can someone enlighten me on this alleged nonsense?
>>
>>33838692
Ever so slightly: a mere 0.114".
It'll be easier to find holsters for, as well.
On the other hand, unless you're planning on carrying loaded with .38 SPL +P, the K-frame is a gun that can't withstand regular practice with your carry ammo.
>>
>>33838733
Good ol' clinton hole.

Man never did meet a hole he didn't like.
>>
>>33838733
During the gun control scares of the early 90s S&W introduced a gun lock (the "hillary [clinton] hole") on their models. This was seen as capitulation in the same vein as bill ruger supporting mag size limits.

there are some apparent instances of the recoil on the higher caliber models (.44mag i think) actually activating the lock and preventing further firing until it was unlocked.
>>
>>33838767

Rugers are strong work horse guns for a bit less then the smtih's. I have a gp100 and love it thousand+ rounds of 38 and 500ish rounds of full bore 357 with no problems. They are a great value if you plan on shotting a lot of 357. Though if you want a Pretty revolver to shoot every now and then just get a smith. Not saying they break easily, just that the Ruger is more utilitarian in use and looks.

Well I did have a problem with light primer strikes. But that was because I was using after market light springs and reloading with cci primers(which are notorious for being hard).

>>
>>33838904
They still include them on new models. Some intentionally mechanically disable it.

The actual chance of it unintentionally activating during normal usage is miniscule, and on a 38sp or 357 probably nil. The argument against it is mostly ideological. So some choose to buy used "pre-hole" models in lieu of new ones.

>>33835174
>1. What's with the circle jerk on Manurhin and why are they better?
They're relatively rare, relatively expensive, used by a famous police organization well past the times when pretty much every other police organization switched to a high-capacity semi, and are built like tanks.
>2. Pros and cons of .327/.357/.41/.44 Magnum?
Hoo, this is gonna be a list.
.327Fed pros:
>extremely versatile on ammo, can shoot .327fed/.32H&Rmag/.32S&W Long/.32S&W Short/.32 Short Colt/.32 Long Colt/.320 Revolver/.32acp without modification
>mild recoil compared to .38spl and .357 from similar-weight guns
>can fit 6 rounds in small-frame revolvers like S&W J-frames compared to 5 of .38/.357, and 7-8 in medium-frame revolvers compared to 6 of .38/.357 (and theoretically 10 in large-frame revolvers, but nobody's done so)
>out of short (</= 2") barrels it out-performs .357mag, and ties it at 3"
>doesn't shrek alloy framed shubbies
.327Fed cons:
>very few guns chambered in it despite its significant advantages
>ammo is expensive (shoot .32acp for practice nigga) and hard to find, although universally high quality
>muzzle climb is disproportionate to recoil
>EXTREMELY LOUD due to higher-than-normal pressures, even out of longer barrels like the Ruger Single Seven

Eh fuck it, pretty much everyone knows .357 and .44mag.

.41mag is in a sweet spot for power vs. recoil, but is considered obsolete and as such ammo is rare and expensive. There is no "special" or alt-caliber that's compatible with it either, unlike the others, and the only reason it's even still produced is target shooters (it also tends to be disproportionately accurate and easy to shoot well with Keith-style semi wadcutters).

>3. Which revolvers hold the most aesthetic? Mateba need not apply.
In my opinion it's a tie between a Bisley Blackhawk and a Remington 1860 cartridge conversion. Excellent lines, excellent finishes.

>4. Is Ruger utter shit?
Fuck no.

Yes, that's extremely overpriced. Like, you could buy a factory new one, get it professionally cerakoted, and still have enough left over for 5 boxes of ammo.

Would you buy a compact .22 magnum revolver with three barrels for carry? Consider this:
>Three .22 magnums=about the same recoil as one .38 special
>Three hollow points have the same total surface area and penetrate about as deep as one JHP .38
>Probability of hitting something critical massively improved
>Can squeeze 15 rounds into the size of a five round .38 cylinder by adding an inner row of chambers, giving you the same number of trigger pulls
>Could load only one row for practice or reduced recoil
>.22LR cylinder replacements
>Rimfire reliability not an argument because revolver
>Low pressure .22 reduces manufacturing cost

What do you think? Pic is a shitty comparison of the capacity possible in an LCR cylinder, and yes you can have that small a gap between them, google the NAA revolver if you disagree.
>>
>>33840136
1. Volley fire is gay; it's better to be able to bust as many or as few caps as you want by means of pressing the trigger more or fewer times.
2. That in mind, a two-barrel revolver that switched between the two rings of chambers via some mechanical contrivance, firing in an A,A,B sequence, would save weight and give you fifteen shots instead of five at the cost of mechanical complexity.
3. Rimfire ammo unreliability is still an argument beacuse the practicality of your retarded idea is predicated on every single round firing, hitting the target, and expanding, and if any one of them doesn't do any of those things it becomes less effective than a normal 5-shot .38
4. I don't care to look up the numbers, but you're probably wrong about the permanent cavity volume of three .22 Mags vs. a good .38 JHP.
5. .22 Mag fucking sucks monkey nuts no matter how many of them you fire at once (within reason); quit fucking coming into every thread to shill your brain-dead .22 Mag volley-fire retardation.

I agree, that's why shotguns suck too, I want to choose when each pellet leaves the barrel. It's better that way.

Ah yes, and with the massive stopping power of .22 it's a wonder this wasn't made before.

I see what you mean, about half of all rimfire rounds are duds so it's a huge problem.
>I'm wrong about permanent cavity volumes
No, the best around expand to .62 inches or something, ran the numbers and it worked out

I agree. That's why I carry a .38 special. The stats show it does the same thing, maybe with a few downsides, but someone online told me .22 was bad and I trusted him.

1. >implying triplex .22 Mag and a shell launching nine .330" balls at once are comparable
2. They make guns that let you fire shot pellet-sized projectiles one at a time, and they're way more common in military and LE use than fucking shotguns are because they're more versatile than shotguns are because they allow the user to fire as many or as few shots as they feel necessary rather than arbitrarily dumping a particular number of projectiles into the target every time. Pic related.
>Ah yes, and with the massive stopping power of .22
3. Shooting someone three times with a .22 Mag is shooting someone three times with a .22 Mag, regardless of whether the bullts hit him all at once or in quick succession, and you're the one pretending that it's a viable self-defense cartridge.
>about half of all rimfire rounds are duds so it's a huge problem.
4. Rimfire rounds are demonstrably and well-known to be less reliable than centerfire cartridges; not to the extent that you sarcastically suggest, but enough that nobody ever seriously reccommends rimfire guns for self-defense, and again, if even one of the cartridges in your hypothetical design is a dud or misses then by your own calculations it's not as effective as a .38.
>>
>>33840704
>Shotguns aren't popular with military/LE because you can't control the number of pellets fired
Here I was thinking it was because of their length, low capacity, slow reloads, and shot spread. This was really eye opening though, thanks.
>The three shots are three shots either way
Makes total sense, but I do have to wonder if there would be a delay in pulling the DA trigger multiple times. I know you can do it several times in the blink of an eye but that sounds tricky.
>Rimfire rounds are less reliable
I already agreed, a dud every few trigger pulls is unacceptable.

Question for experienced revolver guys. What's your preference for speed loaders, and how do you carry them around both comfortably and discreetly?
>>
>>33840947
I would, but I'm a 19 year-old noguns in VA with a family that isn't very friendly towards guns. I mainly come on here to masturbate to guns and gather info for when I'm actually in a position to get one.

It's a real shame, because I saw a Factory New Rhino on GB that had a minimum bid of $0.01 that had already been relisted at least once. If I was older, or had a friend who could buy it for me and then sell it to me, I reckon I could have easily gotten it for <$200 all fees included, assuming it was legit.
>>

Yeah, I figured there had to be something like that in place to prevent criminally low bids. I just figured that the simplest way to do that would be to raise the minimum bid, so I was confused.

Guess I'll just wait a couple years and hope that it stays in production, even though I would rather start learning to shoot sooner than later.
>>
>>33841364
If I were designing something like this, I would make the cartridge holder separate from the ejection mechanism. The holder could be a flat strip with something that locks the ends together. The ejector could be carried as a keychain that slides into the center of the locked together holder.

In the end, it would probably be slow and unreliable, completely negating the purpose of a speed loader. Better just stick to speed strips.

Beacuse it would take more time to curl it into a circular configuration for use than it would to just use a speed strip, and if you made it curl up on its own you would need a special rigid carrier to keep it flat while you weren't using it and you'd have to have some way to ensure that it curled exactly the right amount to line up with the chambers.
>>
>>33841658
I don't think you understood what I meant. I was talking about a speedloader that could simply fold on hinges to flatten its two halves together, getting rid of the circle of space in the middle. It could maybe also be made of flexible material. Pull it out, press it a bit on the ends, and it pops into shape.
>>
>>33841711
I'm ignoring what you posted in favor of my new idea, a moon clip made out of some kind of spring steel or something so it can be flattened out for carry, but as soon as it clears leather it pops back into shape and can just be dropped straight into the gun.

>>33842618

I'm not aware of any revolvers that come with an unusually light trigger from the factory, but there are a variety of ways that a gunsmith can reduce a revolver's DA pull, and many of them are safe and reliable enough for serious use.

I've found the Hogue bantam grips to be pretty much exactly what I want, but people have said that they can slide around on the grip because of how the screw is. That, and I was hoping for something a little less expensive.

>>33845040
You are right, but the frame cracking and forcing cone issues seem to have been a result of early light (125gr) magnum loads. There was a Remington offering in particular that was found to have caused many of the issues.

Plenty of folks have had no issues shooting heavy magnum loads, like 158gr, on a regular basis in their k frames.

Of course, I have no real expertise on this, and the sources of my info are through forums so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt.

So I've officially seen the light. Back in Autumn, I picked up a ca. 1950's S&W Hand Ejector/Model 10 for cheap. Definite patina, big chip out of the bottom of the wood of the grip on one side, but the rifling was good and the timing was sound.

All I've gotten to do with it until a couple weeks ago was play with it. Dry fire, learn the feel of the weights and breaks of the SA and DA pulls. Even then, I knew I liked it; even for a mass-produced gun, the DA pull was smoother than anything else I've fired up till this point (all automatics as far as handguns, mind you).

But recently, I finally got to shoot it. Oh man. Now I see why people truly like revolvers. This ~60 year-old gun made me happy in a way I haven't been towards a gun in a long time. the .38 chambering made it an absolute pleasure to shoot and want to just keep on shooting, and what surprised the hell out of me was how damn accurate the thing was. I shot scores better with that than with any autoloading handgun to date.

For practicality's sake I'm sure I'll stick with an autoloader for carry, but I'd be a liar if I said that I didn't want to throw this thing into the rotation every once in a while.

Honestly, what should the next step be in the world of wheelguns?

DA can be fired arbitrarily fast, is plenty accurate for most practical shooting, and is godlike for developing good trigger control practices.
SA is too light to use practically under stress, even the simulated stress of a action shooting sport, not to mention the awkwardness of breaking and reaquiring your firing grip between shots, but takes your trigger control largely out of the equation for longer, more precise shots.
99% of shooters are doing themselves a disservice by shooting SA at all because they're using it on close, high-probability targets to enable their bad shooting habits.

.44 Magnum is best caliber.
Keep in mind that you'll basically have to take up reloading to keep it fed unless you're independently wealthy.
On the other hand, rolling your own means you can load them as hot or as soft as you want to maximize your shooting enjoyment.

>>
>>33848474
The Glock's frame's ability to bend and flex under recoil gives it a durability advantage over most metal 10mms, many of which are dangerously under-engineered and develop frame and slide cracks at relatively low round counts.
It's also lighter, of course, which is beneficial for a gun that'll be carried over hill and dale in addition to other gear.
Furthermore, I assume you already own at least one other Glock pistol, so the 20 would be easier for you to pick up and start using with a minimum of familiarization time.

Korths are great, at least the models made when WIlli was still part of the company. I shot a .22 made in the 70s 2 weeks ago and it was just as good as my MR22. Ethnic german here as well. I would not shell out 3k for one of the new ones though.

They're the same price, I got the TRR8 because I didn't want a fuckhuge logo on my gun. Also I don't use the bottom rail much so I detached it. Can't do that on an R8.

My rails haven't come loose at all, but if they do, don't use loctite, it's fucking garbage. Blue and red are too strong and purple is too weak. Use vibra-tite v3, it's also what S&W actually uses in their side plate screws.

Also be prepared for the barrel shroud nut to come loose. You'll have to screw it back on, which is compatible, or send it back to S&W for them to tighten it. Why? Because when you tighten the barrel nut, the barrel moves forward, which leaves you with a fuckhuge cylinder gap, unless you vibratite the frame threading S&W uses a special tool that holds the barrel in place while the nut is being tightened.

The gun is accurate and the trigger is excellent, but the barrel shroud is a shitshow.

I've heard of this and I've had the same luck with the rails but I've never had a problem with the barrel shroud I guess it's just a matter of time. I'm not sure how much longer or if it's been done before because I've put nearly a thousand rounds through this gun already with zero issues.
>>
>>33851461
I had it happen to me after ~100. And a loose barrel shroud absolutely kills accuracy.

Had to go through a lot of trouble to retighten the barrel nut and get the cylinder gap back under 0.006 inches. Hasn't given me trouble since then and accuracy doesn't seem to be affected.

If it hasn't come loose in 1k rounds you're fine.
But whoever decided to make the barrel nut turn in the same direction as the frame thread shot be fucking executed.

In the same line as using .38spl in a .357, the .327 can use 32 S&W, .32 S&W Long, .32 HR Magnum. The big difference being that those cartridges aren't exactly cheap most of the time, but .38spl isn't as cheap as people make it out to be either, just softer shooting.

Apparently. 32acp works but isn't ideal since it's tapered and only has a semi rim

So is there no point to shooting .357 Mag out of 2" snubby? I heard that it loses a lot of velocity. How is it out of 3"?
>>
>>33861827
>heard that it loses a lot of velocity
it does, but it will still outperform .38sp by a bit, and maybe barely even 9mm (i hear) from that length. the compromise usually espoused is that with .38 you get nearly the same performance at that length with noticeably less recoil.

>How is it out of 3"
a lot better.

the real reason to go for a 3" barrel is so you can have a full-length ejector rod

Literally all guns are literally deafeningly loud.
If you fire a gun without hearing protection, you will permanently fuck up your hearing.
Period.
A good CCW revolver would be a S&W Model 66 2.75"
It's light enough that you can carry it all day if you want to, but not so light that it's unpleasant or difficult to practice with.
It's not in 9mm, but 9mm revolvers are a niche item primarily for enthusiasts and competition shooters.

Ive got a ruger security six and gp 100 both stainless 4 inch barrel. They have both been really great revolvers. The heavier design is great for my lady because she prefers .38 and it really dampens any recoil to almost nothing while I mainly run .357 through them. Theyve been our nightstand guns for years with no complaints.

volley fire is the principle shotguns work on. its scientifically proven a few rounds totalling the same diameter as a bigger round do more terminal ballistic damage. i think his example is novel except for the obvious flaw of using a rimfire cartridge.

anyway its already been done before, his exact idea already exists

practically its probably not too popular due to weight and size of the handgun

for most revolverfags, the aesthetic is a pretty big part of the reason you are buying the gun. a stupid hole drilled into the side that serves no purpose but to remind you of gun control and political correctness ruins that

You're right, they're about on the same level as similar brands, such as Korth. But they shit on lesser guns like ruger, rohm, S&W, colt, Smith, taurus etc.
>>
>>33865687
taurus isnt even a tier its a joke. jk, but then what does that make armscor

>>33865315
I'm talking about the 3 inch version with the atrocious "white rhino" pattern cerrakote, which is incidentally the only three-inch version currently on sale.

I personally like the way the rhino looks, especially since there are very practical reasons for its appearance.

The Mateba is pretty neat as well.
