A Place For Revolvers In The Modern Era - The Mag Life

No matter what the scenario in question is, a revolver can be the answer — even in the modern era. For the street, I do prefer an auto most of the time for the increased round count on board. However, there are times when I'll just carry my 5-shot .38 revolver if I want something very...

grew up with revolvers - still using them, still reliable, still powerful for a pistol.

Heck yeah, better than being empty handed. Plus some possess a really cool look.

See.....? Now this is what I want Ruger or Taurus to come out with. Maybe then I will be able to afford a .357 wheelgun that will take a light and a sight without breaking the bank. I can't afford (or justify) a Smith R8, let alone a Korth. But they do check all of the boxes for a "zombie apocalypse, tacti-cool, combat magnum that pairs with my tacti-cool lever action" revolver.

Having said this I am saving up to pick up a Taurus Raging Hunter in .460. The 5" model. It at least can run a sight/dot.

I love my Smith & Wesson M&P R8. Save up your pennies.

I am. But they are going to be sent to Taurus. Really want that big rig. 460 will let me shoot it, 454 and 45 Colt. And I have a metric ton of 45 colt ready to go. I wonder if my Judge speed loaders will work?

FYI, on the Raging Hunter series, they have a 2 piece barrel system similar to the Dan Wesson revolvers, they got heavy triggers at first, mine got better with usage.

I like Revolvers. This is today’s carry. Hard to beat 10 rounds of Gold Dot’s and 12 more in speed strips.
