I like revolves, always have and most likely always will. I even keep a loaded, five shot 38 next to my bed.
But criminals today are not the criminal of yesterday. They are better armed and more willing to shoot.
Home Invasions are more common today then most people think. A few weeks ago there was a home invasion in Louisiana that went bad for the bad guys.
Two young black men thought they would kick in the front door of a house in a nice upscale neighborhood. They were well armed with high capacity semiautomatic handguns.
The plan was to kick in the front door, take the home owner hostage, demand money, or take the hostage to an ATM and get money.
Well things didn’t go as planned. The home owner was quick to arm himself with a semiautomatic pistol and engage the intruders.
When it was all over, more then 40 rounds were fired in the house. One of the bad guys was dead, the other running for his life.
If the home owner would have had a revolver, there may have been a different outcome.
I still like my revolvers and my 38 will stay on my nightstand, but I also have an SBR with a 30 round mag next to the nightstand.
