Sorry to hear about your dad, and the only weapon I've carried regularly is a Taurus .38 special revolver. Mostly because if it ended up getting stolen I wouldn't worry about losing a $100 gun near as much as a $700 one. If I carried all the time I'd have one of the Airweight revolvers. I love my Kimber UC2 but it stays at the house, next to my Sig.
Thanks BP. Why does the UC2 stay at home?? And when you say you are worried about it getting stolen, is it because you leave it in your vehicle?
Lol I read this immediately after reading comparison reviews between Taurus snubbies and the Ruger LCR. Apparently Ruger release a .357 Mag version of the LCR
The .38 Special +P IMO is a pretty hot load in a snubbie, I could only imagine what a .357 round would be like
If a revolver does not go boom when you pull the trigger, all you have to do is pull the trigger again. Not so with a semi-auto. Revolvers are the most fail-safe guns you can own.
And as Buzzo mentioned, they work a lot better for pistol whipping.
Going .38 revolver shopping this trip home. I might pick up a LCR for my grandmother to shoot and carry and maybe a S&W Airweight for myself. Revolvers do not need rails.
Its sad, but I bet if they put rails on revolvers so people could hang all their doodads on them and call them tactical revolvers they would become more popular. Much like what Stoeger did with the coach gun.
So, what you're saying is revolver's are not cool... and if they add rails they would be more cool and people would like them?
