I’m with you - - I need wheel guns.
There’s just no feeling of dependability quite like a no-doubt-about-it wheel gun.

I am a lover of semi-autos, frankly, though my first handguns were wheel guns. Now I have come full circle, though, and realized both have a solid place in any self-defense plan. With our winter temps here (North Dakota) meaning I might ruin a good parka, I'll take that over being unable to access a semi-auto or get off a second round.

Visions of snagged hammers (with either) trying to draw just didn't cut it. So now, I'm the big bad dude with the little Ladysmith .38 in my pocket. (The Mrs. has one, too.)

The slicker and simpler the system, the fewer points of failure...
