QUOTE (The Grifter)
Revolvers main strength is it's ease of use, reliability, and some models are able to accept multiple cartridge types. They are (typically) slower to reload than an autoloader, and carry less ammunition, but I know I would've taken my Taurus .45 revolver over the P.O.S. Beretta M9 I was issued in OIF any day of the week.

Yeah. personally, I prefer my S&W than my Berretta for target shooting.

most poeple look at semi auto vs revolver as speed of reload and amonut of ammo needed between reloads. Most GM's are not going to get into reliability or potentially accuracy. Revolvers at the high end do hit harder bullet for bullet. but there is also a dramatic element to cocking a revolver and seeing the cylinder to turn.
