    Default Revolver or Semi-Automatic

    For your everyday carry, do you prefer a revolver or semi-automatic?

    My daily carry is a semi-auto but I will admit there is just something sexy as hell about a revolver...

    I am a recent convert.

    I had been carrying a full size series 70 but some hip trouble forced me to downsize.
    I bought a PPK/S & like it just fine but on a whim I drug out a S&W 649 that had been a safe queen for years. It was originally bought to go in a ankle holster but as it turned out ankle holsters bug me so I never used it. Anyway I shot it a little & REALLY liked the ergonomics of it, the realiability (my PPK has yet to jam but I garantee the 649 wont! ) and the accuracy of it (it shoots like a 4" barrel, not a 1 1/2). Consequently the 649 has been going with me everywhere ever since.
    Never argue with an idiot. First they drag you down to their level then they beat you with experience!

    51 years with the 1911's, the only change is from the old Govt.Mdl. .45 to a Commander LWT .38Super. Always there when wanted and always works.

    Nowadays I prefer a pistol over a revolver mainly because of the difference in ammo capacity. 5 or 6 rounds in a revolver compared to 8 up to 17 rounds in a pistol is quite a change. But it really comes down to personal preference and many prefer wheel guns.

    I have both but prefer revolver for everyday carry, much easier to conceal.

    Colt doesn't make a 1911 revolver
