[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41454424]You're objectively wrong there, sorry. And the whole "whip it to the left and then whip it back" move is just movie magic. Actually doing that will damage the gun over time.[/QUOTE] even while whipping a revolver's cylinder isn't really ideal, opening and closing with your off hand it isn't that hard or time consuming to do.

[QUOTE=zach1193;41454561]And revolvers aren't bad or unreliable guns regardless of whether they're outdated, they can still serve the purpose that they're made for with effectiveness. Just because there's a newer design doesn't mean the older designs can't be used effectively, at least to some degree, the way you put it, it seems as if revolvers are useless and now that slide action handguns are around revolvers can no longer shoot bullets or kill things. [/QUOTE] I'm not denying or diminishing the merits that a revolver might have, I'm just saying any advantage you might get out of it would be completely negligible in comparison with most modern handguns. Loading a modern handgun is a 3 step process, loading a revolver is almost twice that.

[QUOTE=arthuro12;41459650]Gahwd it's 2013 already Trunk Monkay, get with the program. [IMG]http://www.stu-offroad.com/firearms/spdldr/spdldr-5.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] In a stressful situation, trying to release the cylinder, swing it out, push the ejector to remove the spent casings, keep the cylinder clear of the frame so you can line up the bullets in the speedloader with the cylinder, push it in to release the rounds, and then lock the cylinder back into the frame properly is a total clusterfuck of fine motor skills. Reloading a pistol is a matter of pushing a button with your thumb, sticking a big blocky magazine in a big blocky magazine well, and then either pulling the slide so it releases or thumbing the slide release. It's straightforward, it's simple, and you do it less often with a higher capacity than a revolver. Please don't respond with videos of people speed-reloading revolvers Bob Munden-style in less than a second one-handed or whatever. What works on a range and what works when your life is on the line are miles apart. There's a good reason why many handgun instructors specifically teach to pull the slide on a semi-auto with your whole hand to release it rather than use the slide release with your thumb. With the adrenaline and stress of being under fire, even simple tasks become complex and time-consuming, so the simpler the better. A revolver may suffice as a personal defense weapon you don't intend to reload but even then I'd rather have a subcompact semi-auto with an additional magazine or two as backup. Consider how many gun advocates have been saying that seven rounds is insufficient for self-defense in response to New York's recent legislation, and ask yourself if you'd trust your life to just six rounds.

I'll give yah a hint, it's the one with almost twice as many steps. Furthermore, when your adrenaline is pumping and you're possibly getting shot at or rushed, using a speedloader will be harder than inserting a magazine.
Well gentlemen, the obvious solution here is to have a revolver that you'll never have to reload :v: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/5otjQf8.jpg[/IMG]

What I'm saying is I'm sure if you trained hard enough, you could reload a revolver at the same speed an average person could reload a handgun. Also the whole adrenaline argument is subjective and even if you do take that into consideration, then you also have to take it with the handguns. If you're too nervous to reload a revolver, then I don't think you'd be very efficient at reloading a handgun either. 5 steps compared to 3 is not a huge leap, also it takes a lot longer to unload a jam then to never jam, just a thought.

What I'm saying is I'm sure if you trained hard enough, you could reload a revolver at the same speed an average person could reload a handgun.[/quote] And if you put in the same time and effort on becoming skilled at reloading a pistol, you could reload it twice as, if not three times as, fast as your average person trying to reload a revolver. I'll say this again, any advantage you get from a revolver is negligible to the accumulated advantages you get from a modern pistol.

You put a large square stick into a large square hole. It's real hard to fuck it up, even when your adrenaline is pumping like crazy. A revolver is a completely different story. You'll have to fit 6 small rods into 6 small holes before you can even remove the speedloader and close the cylinder. Thats tough to do when you're pissing yourself while your hands are shaking. [QUOTE=zach1193;41460552] 5 steps compared to 3 is not a huge leap, also it takes a lot longer to unload a jam then to never jam, just a thought.[/QUOTE] Unless you're using shit ammo or holding your pistol improperly, you don't have to worry about jams. And 9 times out of 10 a jam will be a simple stove pipe that you fix by pulling the slide back and letting it go. I'd be more worried about the cylinder falling out of alignment on a revolver than I would about jams in a semi automatic. Of course in the end it comes down to preference and what you're more comfortable with, but your slowest pistol reload is still going to be faster than your fastest revolver reload.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41460096]150 year old revolver: 1.Release the cylinder 2.eject spent casings 3.insert speedloader 4.remove speedloader 5.close cylinder[/QUOTE] Why do you keep referring to a revolver as being "150 years old" The first swing-out revolver was in 1889 and the first removable magazine autoloader was in 1893, the ages have nothing to do with this I'm not saying I disagree with you on this but the age of a design doesn't really seem to make a difference
