went to the gun show

Nothing says "STOP" like looking down the barrel of a .45 :) Nothing is more reliable than a revolver either and no safeties to think about in a life or death situation.

For those that have many years of police and/or military experience, a semi-auto is great, but for me, I'm old school. I've never had a Ruger revolver fail to fire or jam. For that matter the Glock I had (.40 S&W compact, model 23?) never jammed either but I had a friend who could make it jam (ex-Navy) by limp wristing it. I told him it would never jam and sure as crap he said "watch this" and it stove piped.
