How young are you to not have a wheel gun yet? Not having a revolver is like having a sports car with an automatic transmission.

Revolvers and lever guns are so much fun and accurate (IME), it took me till my 30's to realize that unfortunately.

What car guy would buy a sports car with an auto tranny????

I miss my mustang and 1200cc crotch rocket often.

Never say never!

Revolvers are their own, special kind of fun!

You get to fiddle more with a revolver to make it run. An auto loader all you do is insert a mag, rack the slide and pull the trigger.

Not if it's a Ruger Security Six.

How many lefties are comfortable with wheel guns...I see tactical reloading being an issue with the cylinder release location..

I think he means Ammo load time but yea my gp100 never failed me once.

Lot of YouTube advice about how to empty spent rounds and reload as a lefty - revolvers are pretty unihanded.

I still feel 25 most of the time.....

I'm a lefty and with double action revolvers , you just to need practice and find a technique that works for you.
I have found that shooting left and loading right handed isn't too slow or cumbersome.
Single action revolvers are already set up for us lefties.

The next time my family buys me a gun as a gift, it will be the first time!

I'm hoping to get a $100 steel lined gunbelt!
If all the planets are in alignment, I would really like a set of Wilson Combat, grip panels for for my Beretta 92!

I'm left handed and have been shooting revolvers most of my life and fortunately never had to worry about a "tactical reload". Never having been one to follow the latest trends I just plug along like I always have and so far its worked fine

I wouldn't know. I don't join in this patently Pagan celebration.

Love the Sixes. High value wheel guns.

I need more and better trauma gear. A couple AK-74 mag bodies. I can make do with springs, followers and floorplates. Maybe new boots. Hell, I just need shoes. Pants maybe, I`m down to two pairs.

Sounds depressing when you actually say it.
