. . . . I Guess I could pack both, just in case!!!

That's what I did for a while.
Finally decided had enough to carry without the heavy pistol.
Just another "been there, done that" now. \:\)

IMO

whether the revolver is SA or DA i always cock the hammer back before shooting an animal \
less trigger pull is best


yep,...there is just to much travel not to load the hammer up...

Yes! The plow handle type grips found on most single actions fit my hand well. Single actions are very strong and can stand up to heavy handloads. DA is correct about less trigger pull is best.
