Agreed. Semi-autos can be intimidating to people new to handguns, with all the moving parts. It will take range time to become comfortable with a semi-auto, and even then if you don’t shoot it from time to time you will you will lose that comfort level. Revolvers are simple, point and shoot.
Fully agree! Though I am fairly accurate with several automatics, a .38 Special revolver resides on my nightstand. Simply put, if suddenly awakened at 3AM by an intruder, I don't want to ensure that a round is chambered in an auto AND I don't want to leave one chambered either. Just personal preference on my part. I don't anticipate needing 17+ rounds in such an encounter.
