It's 2022 - anyone still carrying a revolver?

[M60]

My mistake, this winter I've been alternating between my P365 and Glock *26*.

My G42 is my summer pocket gun, and I carry Federal HSTs.

Federal HST .380 does not perform as well as the Hornady critical defense .380 but hey. Its you life.

 

[JonathonEmergency]

I like to carry my lcr 38, but I wish there were a wider selection of grips available. The stock grips are a little big, and the boot grip is way too small.

 

[Matt_SERE]

LMAO. You think your world is in flames? You should have tried my world in 1968 an 1969. Now that was a world in REAL flames. That was the world I inherited from the generation before me and I believe you indicated the generation before me is one of the generation you revere. Dah!

Hey it's not like neighborhoods were being bombed by the popo. Oh shit, wait.

In your skinny jeans?

Tight pants, tight groupings.

I don't believe that's correct, but if the difference between Hornady and HST is the difference between life and death for me, then I probably f***ed up somewhere.

Don't be hating, we have to squeeze out all the testosterone we can get

Just take a look at the lucky gunner gel test results. Seeing is believing. No one product line of ammo is best in all calibers.. HST is great in several including. 38+p but in .380 Hornady critical defense performs better than Federals HST.

I carry a chopped and hard chromed colt detective special in a deep aiwb holster when I can’t (or don’t want to) carry a larger semi auto.

I literally laughed out loud.

From a revolver thread to a trolling revolver thread in just a few pages… STFU & stick to the original thread for f—s sakes!!! I WAS enjoying the original thread until SPO38 started to f*** with everybody. What’s your beef man?

If the cylinder is not longer than the barrel, you are doing it wrong.

I see you sprung for the ergo grip upgrade.

That makes the list of top 10 ugliest guns ever made.

Maybe. But I bet you it is more reliable and better built than the 10 prettiest revolvers.

I'm a disagreeable person overall.

I finally found something you said that I could agree with!

Never could understand people like you? Met many over the years and could never figure out why they liked to be miserable bastards…

I had a guy at the range tell me once - 'if you're still carrying just 5x 38s in a snubby, you're really as good as unarmed. anything less than 357SIG is basically airsoft' lol.

Yes

Did he volunteer take a .38 round to the chest? Since it’s like air soft.....?

 

[G4Y4HK]

No the guy went off on 'there's a reason why cops stopped carrying six shooters and go with better rounds now like FOTAY and 357sig' and how meth heads charging up at you can't even feel rounds lol. I told him 'thanks, I'm just here to shoot' and he buggered off.

 

[E.Stoner]

Serious mileage but no use.

Oh really?

That's one of the benefits of hearing loss - it's so easy to tune out the retards. I have to concentrate to hear people, and most just aren't worth the effort to listen to.

Can you name any civilian self defense shootings that involved a reload?

Interesting topic. Someone apparently studied it: Self Defense Findings

Private citizens reload in approximately 1/2 of one percent of shooting incidents (3/482).

And that's assuming you're unlucky enough to get into a shooting incident in the first place.

specific to reloads, maybe not, but in my area, there have been several armed assaults with multiple attackers.
Every EDC thread I have ever read refers to carrying multiple magazines.
I would rather be safe than sorry.
