I beg to differ.
Revolvers are more reliable.
But, most semi-autos problems can be cleared on the spot.
When a revolver jams, its down for the count.
Primers pushed back
Timing off
Hilliry Lock self engages.
And I'm sure there's more.
I shoot+carry both, depending on how I dress.(Before I hear it-NO not in a DRESS!)
A semi-auto is A LOT more likely to have a FTF, or FTE, than most any $250-$350 QUALITY S&W or Ruger .357Mag. revolver.
Most new gun owners will have a harder time clearing a Semi-auto than they will to keep pulling the trigger on a revolver.
IMO, there is more of a chance to win SOME money on the lottery than there is to have a QUALITY revolver to become inop when needed...Bill.
