So that is it... revolvers are look nice and if you really want to stretch it they can be useful for anti bear guns or for collecting brass after a driveby

But for the sake of everything else revolvers lose to semi autos as far as a weapon platform goes in pretty much every conceivable way

Nice b8.
S&W .460, with low power variable scope and bipod. YES, I SAID BIPOD IN CONJUCTION WITH HANDGUN.
Eat shit SBR tax and reg.
Seriously though, if you are carrying revolvers matter only in lightweight small(er) frame .357 and handload or use quality .38.

>>34997798

Yeah like I said just for the sake of big game hunting of course you COULD use a revolver but that is just a personal preference kind of thing when a rifle would fair better , but that is it.

I mean you could carry a light frame 38 but something like a glock 26 would be so much better self defense wise.

>>34997815

Yeah no one else made revolvers like that because they were still piss poor regardless of being able to be supressed, it serves no useful purpose unless it is your only gun. it also would conceal worse than modern semi autos.

And your last bit confirms nogunz because a well maintained quality semi auto will jam about as often as your S&W that is in good condition, whereas you taurus could easily fuck itself and be unable to fire or turn the cylinder because the release is fucked.

No one worth their salt considers what Taurus makes a gun. Just like the orcs that make them, they have no souls and are not legitimate. Just like Jennings, Bryce, Jimenez, or Ruger. They look like a revolver but have some major flaw.

>revolvers lose to semi autos as far as a weapon platform goes in pretty much every conceivable way

Is it useful to compare the platforms for any reason other than autism? Don't answer right away, you might be autistic. For instance, citizens who practice with and keep a revolver for self defese, I would wager 99% of them never find themselves in circumstances which a semi auto would have served them better.

It might be a more useful comparison to look at what applications semi autos and revolvers perform well at. Revolvers are extremely accurate, reliable, powerful, and can be shot quickly. There are many applications which can be fulfilled well by the use of revolvers despite modern semi-auto alternatives. However I suspect this is just a bait thread. 4/10 I replied at length.
>>
>>34997831
<last bit confirmes noguns
They dont jam, and most of the "tap rack bang" problems you are prone to get in a semi is just anothet squeeze of the trigger to fix.
Obviously all guns are prone to critical failiures but thats mostly it for wheelgats.

You don't get those problems in a revolver since there's no slide and no magazine. The issues you run into are things like poorly machined cartridges locking up the cylinder.

That's not true, all sorts of things can go wrong with the ammo and cause the cylinder to lock up, to include cheapass practice ammo fouling up the gun over time if you don't clean it.

The reason they haven't failed is because it's unlikely for any decent firearm to fail.

>>34998459

And cast well enough that they often have their own sections in reloading manuals because they're quite strong.

Didn't sound like it, especially since you brought up TRB which is a quick and easy way to clear most jams. If something can be fixed that easily it's not catastrophic. The only thing that pulling the trigger twice on a revolver gets around is a dud round and that could just end up boning you if the round goes off when it's not aligned with the barrel. Get your cylinder locked up and things can get complicated.

>>34997771
>every conceivable way
How so? A .357 with a 4-5in bbl is proven man slayer. Not even debatable. Your average 9mm might take 5 rds or more to end the fight. Most PDs empty their guns and reload to kill one BG. The manual of arms is vastly easier to learn on revolver. Much lower maintenance. Never had a ftf on a wheel gun. Never had a magazine problem in wheel gun. How many zombies do you intend to shoot? IRL, not COD, real gun fights almost always obey the rule of three - 3 shots, from 3 yards or less, over in 3 seconds or less. Proof me wrong.
>>
>>34998787
What about ballistics? You don't need a gun lying around to know that dudes got shot.
>>
>>34998813
The ballistic can link gun to the brass. So pick up and destroy the primer, leave the gun, or destroy the gun. Doing a life sentence isn't worth nickel and diming to save a $500 weapon.

>>34998747

Simplicity of use. There is no slide, there is no safety, and there are no frills. You just unholster the revolver and point it at your target then pull the trigger. Reloading is really where revolvers fall short because they require much more training for being quickly reloaded under stress.
>>
>>34998825
>The ballistic can link gun to the brass.
Not really. Bullet analysis is more common and even then the most you get out of that is a rating of likelihood from high to low.

The GP100 and 686 both have similar overall lengths and weights assuming the same barrel length. At that point you're just looking at width and considering that the GP100 can fit into holsters marked for the S&W 586/686 I can't help but think that you're full of crap.

What the fuck did he pull out of his ass? There are tons of ways to cast things. They're vastly different in result. Even just what kind of material is cast has a huge affect on the end product. There is no fucking way Ruger goes to the same rigorous standards that are required in flight industries. You're going to have to post some goddamn proofs if you're claiming that.

How would it be linked? A simple pair of gloves will prevent that. On the other hand, not having the firearm on you after the deed is done if you are stopped and frisked a few blocks away will keep you in the clear.

I don't you think you grasp how difficult it is to actually link someone to a murder when the victim and perpetrator have no personal connection/history. It's nearly impossible without a major break like a confidential informant or snitch, especially if it is just a one time/no pattern thing.
