"No revolvers?"

Good point. A Glock 17 is a reliable semi auto but under the category of "handguns" a revolver would certainly be the winner.

In 1980 I purchased a Smith and Wesson Model 19 Combat Magnum with 4" barrel. On my first outing with it, the ejector rod started backing out of the cylinder while shooting and wedged the cylinder so hard that it couldn't swing out.

Revolvers are reliable, but not foolproof.

Probably not until revolver manufacturers buy enough ad space in American Shooting Journal.

In other words, Follow the money?
