Revolver versus Semi-autos.

I like handguns; both revolvers and semi-autos. Here in PA. we are not allowed to hunt with semi-auto pistols, but revolvers are ok. The semi-auto hunting ban extends to rifles in PA, but surprisingly not for shotguns, go figure.

I just tested a dozen new magazines for 3 pistols and culled out one from each group of 4 new mags that were returned. I hunt with revolvers here in PA and would like to hunt squirrels with the Ruger Mark I and Mark II.

The revolver is old technology, but it has a lot going for it still today, in my opinion. On the other hand, my M1911 feeds and functions with monotonous reliability, with good magazines.

Given a choice of one over the other, what would you select?

Adam
