One big advantage of revolvers, especially with concealed hammers, is that they can shoot even if fully enclosed like from a pocket, bag or even from under a bedsheet where a semi auto will usually nit cycle. Also, revolvers practically never jam or fail to cycle properly.

As a self defense trainer it really always just comes down to the person and their exact situation. Everyones carry gun will be different unless they are just following a trend. Same goes for home defense gun. Personally I have a rotation based on where I’m going who I’m with etc. by myself just going to pump gas and straight home? Usually throw on my LCR or 43x. Church? Grocery shopping? Other target rich environments? I carry full size which right now is my SFX Rival with TLR7A and RMR type 2. Carry what you shoot the best is my general advice.
I hope people don't really pay you for self defense instruction if your advice is just to carry "whatever you shoot". People like you are probably the reason why people carry .22s, .50cal desert eagles, 5 shot revolvers, 500 s&w magnums with 10in barrels, or cheap .25 auto Saturday night specials.
@@oni_goroshi No one said to carry “whatever you shoot” except you. I said carry what you shoot best. That is general advice that works for most people. With that you should make sure what it is is also reliable which MOST modern handguns made in the last 10 years are. Not only do people pay me they pay me well because unlike you I have a high level of training and have been doing this for years. I’m paid every day to carry a gun you aren’t so stay in your lane and next time you try to quote someone get it right.
@@oni_goroshiit's really easy to cherry pick words out of what someone says to take it out of context and try to discredit them. What he said was very sound advice. Also, just a side note, .22 can be a very effective round. State trooper in NC shot a guy 3 times center mass with a .357 mag. Guy shot him with one .22 round. Trooper died, guy lived.

@@colinhaieck2299Semi-auto pistols are terrible choices for pocket guns, if you're in a situation you need to shoot from your pocket the gun will go out of battery. Even if you can squeeze one shot off it'll most likely jam while it chambers a new round, and then you'll also have hot brass in your pocket.

98% of revolvers failures are between ammo problems and extremely long term neglect. Primer swell being the most common reason for failure to cycle. Then dud round. Then failures to advance into battery. To be fair once you have one of these they are all harder to clear than most auto failures. At the end of the day, you just have to train with the weapon you carry. If you dont any malf on any plaform is worse than it has to be.
Son of a retired cop here: Revolvers are way way low maintenance. And can be left loaded for a long time without affecting stuff like mag springs and the like.
I've seen a guy that had totally white, lead round nose .38 special in his gun and none of them went off. He also had so much crap in it from his pocket and years of neglect that he had to visibly shake while he was pulling the trigger because it took so much force. It barely even cycled. You still have to take care of them and the ammo. But ill give you one thing, loading and unloading a revolver doesn't damage the ammunition over time like in a semi auto.
Son of a retired cop? That means nothing. Your no subject matter expert. I promise you however much experience you have with guns and whatever guns you own are a joke to the average person in kentucky. I’m the great great great great great grandson of a British general in the revolutionary war. I can’t tell you how how fast Paul revere ran his horse though.
Strangely enough, this reminds me of the difference between digital photography and film photography. They have the same explanation. More shots vs very few shots. I still prefer revolvers.
@@collapsenprotectso why make this video? According to the video, revolvers are totally obsolete and you can’t think of a single reason why somebody would carry one, and yet you do every day.
@derekeastman7771 Mostly because I made a video about revolvers from the opposite perspective. It's fun to play devils advocate, and you get lots of strong opinions from other people as a result! 👍 opinions are cool, guns are cool, and the reasons for using different guns are cool 😁 I carry a revolver and a semi auto every day at work. They compliment each other very nicely.
As someone who carries a S&W .44 a few things: 1. In 90% of self defense cases (where your everyday carry is all you have) 6 shots is MORE then enough to stop a would be assailant, especially if its .44, and if your being attacked by more then 6 guys at a time, then either you pissed off the Don or you are living in GTA 2. Less attachments mean less moving or bulky parts interfering with the compactness of the firearm, plus do you really need a flashlight unless your in a dark building? 3. As for the heavy trigger issue, may i present the ironically older: single action firing, pull the hammer as intimidation or while its in your pocket, boom, hair trigger
"1 shot 1 kill" Not really no. You still have to hit something vital. A .44 mag is better than a .22 LR because it does more damage to what it hits, but in general bullet effectiveness scales pretty slowly with caliber or energy.
You can shoot a revolver with it in your pocket. If you feel in danger and you don't want to brandish your weapon, you can hide the fact that you're holding a weapon.
@@gtarules1in the case that your semi auto doesn't get put out of battery trying to do so, it will for sure jam when the slide goes to move backwards after the first shot from the pocket. Wheelguns don't have that problem.
A lead chucker is always better than no lead chucker. Id take a revolver over nothing. Id take a revolver over a flintlock or derringer. But id take a run-of-the-mill glock over the best revolver any day.
"No one has ever said this gun has too much ammo." That's cool. Revolver carriers have never had to say, "My gun jammed from shooting in a compromised position, 1 handed, or went out of battery from physical contact."
@@DeadlyBreath9790Getting a light still won't change the fact that you can't fire a semi-auto from a jacket pocket. Even if by some miracle the pistol doesn't go out of battery you'll still have hot brass floating around your pocket and most grips on semi-autos just aren't the right ergonomics for that situation. But for most situations a semi-auto is certainly better
While you can say the revolver didn’t jam from those situations, they can have timing issues and light strikes, as well as issues if you don’t pull the trigger in a certain way that can make it not fire. Every system will have limitations, no mechanical thing is immune from failures. Every tool has a situation it is suited to, and sometimes that’s the revolver, sometimes it’s a semi-auto.
That's cool. My semi-auto carriers have never had to say, "My gun jammed now I have to take it to a gunsmith and pay to get it fixed." Semi-autos are simply superior in every practical sense. Revolvers do jam. Stop poisoning yourself with fuddlore.
Why would you put a gun in a pocket. You don't know exactly where the firearm is meaning you have to grab the firearm and hope you don't accidentally pull the trigger. If you can afford a gun you should be able to afford a holster
Well... I love them both... Honestly I love my revolvers... They never fail...outside of bad ammunition...But I love all my semis as well... Loved the flashlight plug! 😜
As a revolver guy these videos make it seem like most semi auto guys seem to say: "wait, I have to use iron sights AND aim instead of spraying? Noooooo!"
Agreed. I would go for a semi automatic pistol for my primary edc and a small handy revolver for my secondary if ( finger crossed 🤞🏼not fail or jam) my primary fails .
Counter points for Revolvers side. #1. Some people don't want anything extra on their guns. #2. Revolvers can't jam and are far more reliable. #3. You never have to worry about running out of mag's for your gun. #4. Snub nose option's #5. Revolvers can sometimes be easier to conceal while carrying a higher calibre then a Pistol that is the same size as the revolver. For example a small pistol that is a 380, could be the same size as a revolver that is a 38 special with a snub nose. #6. There is an automatic 20% increase in badassery using a revolver. There isn't a wrong answer, it's just about preference and how you use it.

"no one has ever said 'this gun holds too much ammo'" this dude's literally never heard of the ATF💀
Maybe it was a joke
ATF?
Automatic transmission fluid😂
Or californian legislators.
Or the U.S. military to John Browning because his first iteration of the BAR had a 400-round magazine
Revolvers hardly ever misfire or malfunction 😏
Same can be said for my Glock 😏

Semi auto in a Solid Snake mood. Revolver in an Arthur Morgan mood
Son of a retired cop here: Revolvers are way way low maintenance. And can be left loaded for a long time without affecting stuff like mag springs and the like.
I've seen a guy that had totally white, lead round nose .38 special in his gun and none of them went off. He also had so much crap in it from his pocket and years of neglect that he had to visibly shake while he was pulling the trigger because it took so much force. It barely even cycled. You still have to take care of them and the ammo. But ill give you one thing, loading and unloading a revolver doesn't damage the ammunition over time like in a semi auto.
Son of a retired cop? That means nothing. Your no subject matter expert. I promise you however much experience you have with guns and whatever guns you own are a joke to the average person in kentucky. I’m the great great great great great grandson of a British general in the revolutionary war. I can’t tell you how how fast Paul revere ran his horse though.
@@everyday4play401bro shut up lmao
pretty sure the mag spring thing is mostly a myth.
Like, you'd need to basically leave it there for decades for it to barely have any effect
Wow, not a cop over here pushing fuddlore hard
Any gun that works is better than no gun when you need it.
“But this trigger is really short”
To quote a man wiser than I, “now you know what’s comin, if my thumb slips-“
Strangely enough, this reminds me of the difference between digital photography and film photography. They have the same explanation. More shots vs very few shots. I still prefer revolvers.
Both are valuable for each's purpose, but if you're worried about which is best for what scenario just buy two holsters lol
I carry both daily 😁👍
@@collapsenprotectso why make this video? According to the video, revolvers are totally obsolete and you can’t think of a single reason why somebody would carry one, and yet you do every day.
@derekeastman7771 Mostly because I made a video about revolvers from the opposite perspective. It's fun to play devils advocate, and you get lots of strong opinions from other people as a result! 👍 opinions are cool, guns are cool, and the reasons for using different guns are cool 😁 I carry a revolver and a semi auto every day at work. They compliment each other very nicely.
"I count two hands..."
As someone who carries a S&W .44 a few things:
1. In 90% of self defense cases (where your everyday carry is all you have) 6 shots is MORE then enough to stop a would be assailant, especially if its .44, and if your being attacked by more then 6 guys at a time, then either you pissed off the Don or you are living in GTA
2. Less attachments mean less moving or bulky parts interfering with the compactness of the firearm, plus do you really need a flashlight unless your in a dark building?
3. As for the heavy trigger issue, may i present the ironically older: single action firing, pull the hammer as intimidation or while its in your pocket, boom, hair trigger
People forget that the revolver doesnt need more bullets💪 1 shot 1 kill
@@user6641valid, but the semi auto also kills in one shot. -All- 97% of guns do.
> Lives in the Greater Toronto Area
> … Fuck.
"1 shot 1 kill"
Not really no. You still have to hit something vital. A .44 mag is better than a .22 LR because it does more damage to what it hits, but in general bullet effectiveness scales pretty slowly with caliber or energy.
Found the fudd
Cant be rick grimes without the colt python
Ct lawmakers once said “this gun holds too much ammo”.
"No one ever said this gun holds to much ammo" California: allow us to introduce ourselves
"6 shots... More than enough to kill everything that moves."
12 shots... this time I got 12...
Have you watched boondocks saints? There's a scene that covers this
I was wondering where the Metal Gear quotes were
croc
What if there's seven guys
People rarely say that because guns or mags that hold too much ammo don't move and get discontinued.
Counterpoint: I wanna pretend to be Arthur Morgan
Moral of the story: every gun has its pros and cons
In my Opinion revolvers has a lot more power and more Painful
The government says "this gun holds too much ammo"
1) Cowboy
2) The big iron is intimidating
3) No jams
4) The bullets are more menacing
5) Cowboy
Semi auto: I feel bad for you.
Revolver: I don't think about you at all.
They all have their advantages, it’s just the matter of what tool you need for your “predicament”
And any self defense "predicament" you might find yourself in is best handled by a semiautomatic
@@MattyIcecubes yep! 😀
You can shoot a revolver with it in your pocket. If you feel in danger and you don't want to brandish your weapon, you can hide the fact that you're holding a weapon.
Excellent point 👍
Why can't you do that with a semi auto?
@gtarules1 If a semi auto is pressed up against something it'll get out of battery.
@@gtarules1in the case that your semi auto doesn't get put out of battery trying to do so, it will for sure jam when the slide goes to move backwards after the first shot from the pocket. Wheelguns don't have that problem.
@@gtarules1 also even if it doesn’t go out of battery I don’t think you want hot brass casing flying in your pocket around and on your hand
“Flash lights”

A smith and wesson bodyguard .38 saved my life in Philadelphia in 2011. Ill forever love the hammerless snubs.
A lead chucker is always better than no lead chucker.
Id take a revolver over nothing. Id take a revolver over a flintlock or derringer. But id take a run-of-the-mill glock over the best revolver any day.
If you have a revolver that's able to be suppressed, you'd be a god
The nagant revolver is able to be surpressed 😁👍
Kentucky Ballistics has a suppressed .500 Magnum. 😂
@@HeWhoMurksWithOneLeapWhere can I buy one
A Revolver never Jams,while Pistols can be your worst Nightmare.
They both have their strengths and weaknesses
They both can do the job. It is up to you to hit what you are shooting at.
Yeah gun is a gun.
Precisely
Revolvers and semiautomatics fall under different categories because they are perfectly suited for different situations
No one in the history has ever said that a gun has too many ammo:
WHAT ABOUT THE POLITICIANS
“No one has said it’s has too much ammo”
Canada:
"No one has ever said this gun has too much ammo."
That's cool. Revolver carriers have never had to say, "My gun jammed from shooting in a compromised position, 1 handed, or went out of battery from physical contact."
My man 😌👍 preach!
get a light that sticks out past the muzzle if that’s an issue for you, if the gun jammed from holding it with 1 hand, fix your grip, it’s user error.
@@DeadlyBreath9790Getting a light still won't change the fact that you can't fire a semi-auto from a jacket pocket. Even if by some miracle the pistol doesn't go out of battery you'll still have hot brass floating around your pocket and most grips on semi-autos just aren't the right ergonomics for that situation. But for most situations a semi-auto is certainly better
While you can say the revolver didn’t jam from those situations, they can have timing issues and light strikes, as well as issues if you don’t pull the trigger in a certain way that can make it not fire. Every system will have limitations, no mechanical thing is immune from failures. Every tool has a situation it is suited to, and sometimes that’s the revolver, sometimes it’s a semi-auto.
That's cool. My semi-auto carriers have never had to say, "My gun jammed now I have to take it to a gunsmith and pay to get it fixed." Semi-autos are simply superior in every practical sense. Revolvers do jam. Stop poisoning yourself with fuddlore.
Like a wise man once said:”Six bullets is more than enough to kill anything that moves.”
"Now I'll show you why they call me... Revolver."
Unless there's more than a single "anything" 😂. Stay safe.
"REVOLVER *thirty seconds of autistic gun tricks* OCELOT"

A semi-auto isn't nearly as effective at killing bees.
Love how you lowered your voice for the suppressor shot . Lol Nice!
Counterpoint: how are you going to look like texas red without a revolver?
No one is the history of ever said “this gun holds too much ammo”
ATF:😏
Whichever you prefer and put the time in to learn how to use properly is the one that is better.
Matthew muller is my spirit animal lol
Everything except the trigger checks out.
They are tools, different tools for different jobs, I use and own both.
😊 Good for you
@@esonupontoo5520Thanks for your endorsment.
which kind of job is for revolvers that semi auto can’t do?
@@fsor8782you can ram it into someone's rib cage. Semi auto go out of battery if you do that.
@@theonlineanimal6009 i guess the only case when revolver is better
Every video game with guns:
Ye but what about damage
Revolvers are great as backup and super easy to fit into tightest pockets
Why would you put a gun in a pocket. You don't know exactly where the firearm is meaning you have to grab the firearm and hope you don't accidentally pull the trigger. If you can afford a gun you should be able to afford a holster
the semi auto has about the amount of a classroom full of kids
Well... I love them both... Honestly I love my revolvers... They never fail...outside of bad ammunition...But I love all my semis as well... Loved the flashlight plug! 😜
As a revolver guy these videos make it seem like most semi auto guys seem to say: "wait, I have to use iron sights AND aim instead of spraying? Noooooo!"
"Nobody ever said this gun holds too much ammo"
California begs to differ 😂
You're wrong pilgrim - John Wayne 🇺🇸
Agreed. I would go for a semi automatic pistol for my primary edc and a small handy revolver for my secondary if ( finger crossed 🤞🏼not fail or jam) my primary fails .
That APX is a CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED firearm 💯
I totally agree 👍 👌
Both have their own uses, and are stupid fun!
I don't know why but I instinctively moved my head anx shouted "what the fuck" when you pointed the gun at the camera!
I carry a full-size gun but also have carried a small pocket gun. As long as you carry a gun responsibly I support you.
Correction no INTELLIGENT person ever said “this gun holds too much ammo” I live in California unfortunately😔
Sorry brother 😞
Revolvers are amazing. They’re even small so you can hide them anywhere.
Counter points for Revolvers side.
#1. Some people don't want anything extra on their guns.
#2. Revolvers can't jam and are far more reliable.
#3. You never have to worry about running out of mag's for your gun.
#4. Snub nose option's
#5. Revolvers can sometimes be easier to conceal while carrying a higher calibre then a Pistol that is the same size as the revolver. For example a small pistol that is a 380, could be the same size as a revolver that is a 38 special with a snub nose.
#6. There is an automatic 20% increase in badassery using a revolver.
There isn't a wrong answer, it's just about preference and how you use it.
My EDC is a semiauto but there’s something to be said about knowing a revolver will ALWAYS go bang. I love them both
Revolvers jam/fail also lmao
