They're nothing more than a 19th century anachronism. Five or six shots and you're out of the fight of your life and you'll never have time to reload before the fight is over. There is no place for wheel guns in 21st century society except for in museums.

One thing about revolvers. They go bang everytime you pull the trigger. Semi-autos are not so reliable. I shoot 3 gun competition and have had many semi-auto malfunctions. And, if you need more than 5 or 6 shots to neutralize a target, you need to re-examine your caliber or marksmanship.

Revolvers do the job. If they don’t, it’s the user’s fault.

My Colt Trooper has malfunctioned more times than my Glock 23 has. My Glock 23 has never malfunctioned.
