Revolver as EDC?

[sloughfoot]

Why? A revolver's 'safety' is a 10-12 lb and long trigger pull.

So sez you.. After yanking out my roscoe from my waistband, I have often wished for a safety on my revolver as I am twirling it around my trigger finger.

I wonder how fast you'd actually have to have one spinning before centrifugal force was enough to pull the trigger.

Why do you put things like this in my head?

Hope I'm not too late to contribute.

You don't have to sacrifice capacity, caliber, concealability, or portability.

I wonder if Kirk's head would explode the instant I started trying it? Oh, what if I tried it IN THE BATHROOM???!!!

The only issue I have with a revolver is the cylinder might be too thick to be comfortable to carry on the body.

With Rhino as a witness? In the completely non-weird way, of course.

Other than beautiful, what is it?

327PC

scandium frame, titanium cylinder. 21 oz unloaded.

similar to the 325 posted earlier in the thread, only .357 magnum instead of .45acp.


The width of the cylinder might be a problem depending on body shape and where you carry it.

it wasn't a problem for me.

Those were just for demonstration purposes. I didn't carry like that...




...often.

Sammy Davis Jr seems to spin it pretty fast.

My first EDC was a Beretta 92FS. Second was a GP 100. That pistol will handle some very powerful 357's! I was in a armed Mishawaka PD Civil Defense unit and that was the issue piece.
Since then it's been the Glock 19, first the Gen 1 now the Gen 3. I did and still occasionally pull out my 642 and carry it. That sucker really slams into your hand when fired. I find Critical Defense are the most accurate (for me) out of it.
My 19 carry rounds are Cor Bon or Gold Dots. Although am giving serious thought to Underwood 124 Gr +p+. Those are flamers.


Edit: Sorry for rambling, my mind is mainly asleep right now.
