Young wheelgunners sound off.

[Big Ram]

I had a governor at one point and I loved it but practical sense got the better if me and I traded it for a beautiful brand new xd 45 tactical.

While not a 20 something, I still am not quite half way through the 30s, lol. I tend to favor my wheel guns, my little J frame goes just about everywhere with me. I have other guns that I like to shoot, but I tend to shoot wheel guns better. Most of the time I am out and about, my 5 shot revolver is all I will ever need, If I think I might need more than that, I do my best to stay clear of the neighborhood.

j frames are BAD A&$ little guns in my experience.

 

[whoismunky]

I'm 21, been carrying since I was 18...started as a Glock-only guy but got an LCR .38 special I've carried for about a year.

Can't decide between semi-auto and revolver? Carry both

 

[Seancass]

Strangely, I carry a semi-auto, but if I go shooting it'll be mostly revolvers! I loaded up a bunch of 44 and 45 this week so I can't wait to go make some noise! The 45 is a little tack driver! Old Vaquero,light Ruger only loads, love it!

I'm 23 and have S&W addiction

My first handgun was a S&W 25-5 4" .45LC at 21. Since then I have a growing collection of .45 caliber Smiths. I'll grab my revolvers before the semis and I have yet to find a semi that is as smooth or accurate as my revolvers. I'm hoping to one day become an "expert" on Smith & Wesson revolvers. Received my C&R FFL a few months ago and have been acquiring some oldies.

Here's a picture I took of my Taurus 617

Another shot, same gun.

 

[ThorazineShuffle]

I haven't been in my twenties for a minute or two, but I've always loved wheel guns...

 

[Juris gunner]

Always loved the wheel guns...got my 686 after my twenties, but still always admired my old man's...that's why i got one at 34 !! LOL

 

[MCgrease08]

I just snagged my first today. I was looking for a backup gun and found a nice blued 1971 Colt Detective Special in .38. I'm so excited to finally have a classic wheel gun.

 

[Greengunner]

Don't know if i would call myself young anymore, but my Dan Wesson 15-2 sure is a joy to carry.

 

[danmdevries]

I'm 28 and prefer revolvers to semi autos. Although larger than the average, I feel my hands aren't big enough for most auto feeders. I'm 6'3" but can't reach the slidelock on a 1911 and don't feel I've got a stable enough grip on most double stacks.

Wheelguns fit my hand much better but as far as accuracy is concerned, it's about equal between autos and DA revolvers when barrel length is considered.

 

[sparkyfender]

When I was in my 20s my carry gun was a nice 4 inch S&W model 15.
It came to me from my father.

My 20s and my father are long gone. Sadly, so is the revolver, but I still admire them greatly!

 

[Sledge357]

I'm at the end of my 20 something's, but have acquired a nice collection thus far. Including my most recent, a GP100 Wiley Clapp Stainless. I was after the blued version when this fell in my lap. I've still got the blued on back order. Helps me look forward to what my 30 somethings will bring!

 

[Seancass]

It's ok, if you're getting into revolvers late, as long as you eventually realise they're the superior firearm!

My revolver spending has been out of control, but I'm looking forward to really shooting my most recent purchase, a Freedom Arms five shot sporting half-inch holes.

 

[confused89]

I guess I'll list a few of what I own/owned. Dan Wesson Model 14 4" 357. Smith and Wesson 28 Highway Trooper 4" 357. Ruger LCR 38. Gp100 4". Ruger Security Six 4" 357. And a few single action Rugers in 44 mag and 45 LC. It never ends.

 

[addictedhealer]

27 and love my LCR. Don't own one but the sp101 is one of my favorite handguns ever. Also want a gp100 so bad I can taste it. Just gotta get a battle handgun first (m&p).

 

[88E30M50]

I'm a semi-auto guy but do love revolvers too. I recently picked up an S&W 66-2 and when I first showed it to my sister, her comment was 'That's the gunniest gun you have'. She may be right.

 

[marv]

I left my 20's behind me sixty years ago but I still have revolvers and love to shoot them. Especially those of the S&W K frame persuasion.
