Revolvers for CCW.

[Adam Helmer]

I just rotated my Colt M1911 into the vault and got out my M65 S&W 3-inch stainless .357 revolver I built in 1983 at S&W Armorers' School. I like revolvers and this is my favorite for in town carry or on the trek into the big woods.

I always start my handgun students on revolvers and many buy a .38 Special or .357 DA as their first gun. My son insists that I should move them to the Glocks. I like semi-auto pistols and realize it takes many range sessions to "groove" them. Folks who ever shot a water pistol or cap gun can do passably well with a DA revolver.

Revolvers will always have a place in CCW in my opinion.
