You folks hold on second or three while I fumble with this speed-loader.

That’s only after 5 rounds have gone down-range.

If you need more than five of six rounds in an unplanned firefight you’ve probably already lost. One or two rounds against a violent perp will kill him or send him fleeing.

Simple fix. Don’t waste all your shots as “warning shots”.

For a practiced shooter, a revolver can be reloaded as quickly as a magazine-fed semi-auto, IMO. Watch Jerry Miculek and his SW 625..

True, with a 5 rnd revolver one would be at a disadvantage against another with hi-cap mag.

Most incidents probably wouldn’t require more than 5 rounds. Who knows. Every situation is different.
