I hardly ever see anyone at the range with revolvers. That’s why I was curious, military and LE people don’t use them anymore.

Older shooters particularly in more rural areas are more likely to have revolvers than younger shooters simply because they were more common when they started shooting.

They probably have some place other than a public range to shoot which could be why you're not seeing them.

I have quite a bit of revolvers. My daughter has a 357 S&W magnum with 6 inch barrel....she is a deadeye shot with it at 20 yards (about the max on the range we use)..

It is more accurate than any of the other semis (anywhere from 22LR, magnum, 380, 9mm, 45ACP, etc.) I have that she’s shot, and that is what counts, and she can do it in single action or double action mode.
