I really like my 1911's, but my first and only love involves revolvers. I carried them for many years and depended on them to take care of me if I did my part. Fired many many thousands of rounds over the years and as result, my brain is totally programmed in the operation of them. I have owned several brands, but my strong preference is for the Smith & Wesson brands. All sizes have their place, and I am most likely to be carrying one by choice. It was (and is) my preference to fire the revolver in the double action mode every time, and so having a revolver with a smooth and consistent action is very important to me.



Among the several revolvers that I cherish, my favorite is an S&W model 325NG in .45ACP. It has an action job by Cylinder and Slide, has their extreme duty rear sight with a trijicon dot front sight, 2.75" barrel, round butt, and it is serious medicine for serious social encounters of the worst kind. Yeah, it's kind of a large snubby, but it's a Scandium alloy frame, and with a good holster, it's not a problem. I'm really fond of it!



Put me down in the column that says "Definitely!" when it comes to revolvers. NO, you may not have my 1911's, but if I had to make a choice, ... boy, I'd hate to do that, but if I did, I'd choose the revolvers, mainly because I am so comfortable with their operation.
