Anxious to see one of these. Looks cool, and the USPSA rule change sounds great!
Anybody know how thick the moonclips are? One big perk of the 625 revolvers was that the moon clips are very rigid, so the rounds don't flex when trying to reload. The old 8 shot moon clips were thinner, making them flex a little more.
While S&W has had a few 9MM revolvers before, this one is supposed to have a true 9MM barrel where as all of the previous ones used a .357 barrel.
What I am curious to see is Revolver Nationals and if major or minor scoring will dictate the winner
It will really be determined on the stages. I wonder if they are going to do any type of resetting of the stages from Single Stack to Revolver, they did not last year
So with all these new configurations of revolvers, is there any point in someone like me showing up with a 6-shot Model 13 or similar? Or should I just pack my stuff away as obsolete old school and stay with pistols?
A 6 shot speedloader gun was never going to be competitive against a moon clip 6 shot gun but now with 8 shot moon clip guns it is buried.
I can reload a speedloader gun almost as fast as a moon clip gun but I don't do it much anymore and I'm no where near as consistent as with a moon clip gun. Some of the top speedloader guys are truly fast and amazing to watch.
If a speedloader gun is all you have bring it out and have fun with it. It can be frustrating but as you get used to it you will have a lot of fun with a revolver.
