I have to say, I have thing for revolvers, the fact you only have 5 to 9 (most I have seen in a wheel gun) catches my imagination.
You are forced to use accuracy a little more than semi auto wielding shooters may have to.
Not calling anyone here a bad shot, just asking.
What is your favorite wheel gun? Just post it's caliber manufacutuer or where it's from and as much info as you please as you wish after that.
Me, I love the S&W 1876 Model No. 3 "Russian" Model, more commonly known as the Schofield, (.45 Cal, or even called .45 Schofield)named after the 10th Calavary U.S. Army Officer who requested a top break type revovler similar to the No.3 Model already in production at the start of decade.
After making some of his own modifcations, for what he saw fit for calvary service, S&W took note and produced it, and made over 9,000 7 inch barrel beauties, even sold a modified verision to the Russian Army, (beautiful extended trigger gaurd piece).
From the top break action to the shell extractors, I love this thing, and once I turn 21 you can be I am applying for a permit.
One thing I will not do however, is put freaking polymer finish on it.....Why would you buy a piece of history then "modernize" it is beyond me....
But who else out there has a favorite?
Love to hear your thoughts on the matter,
Thanks,
