[QUOTE="348Winchester, post: 5421840, member: 11952"] All mechanical devices are capable of failure. As a firearms instructor for five years, I saw self-loaders malfunction many, many more times than revolvers. I cannot recall a revolver failing in that time. I have only had glitches with revolvers that I own that were ammo related. As a gunsmith, I've seen el-cheapo revolvers like the Clerk First, RG, and lots of hinged frame revolvers that were junk and failed miserably. For new shooters a good revolver is a better choice. I have 40 years handgun experience and still choose a revolver most of the time although I own many autos and like them. [/QUOTE]
