This is a weighty decision
Indeed. But whether armed or not, the potential of using violence in self-defense must be acknowledged as a real potential.
According to Paul Harrell on YouTube, the average self-defense encounter is ended with 6 or fewer rounds. A 5-shot snubbie with a speed loader is probably enough. But training is still essential, because I have managed to bind up a wheelgun with sloppy ejection technique.
My insurance covers any weapon used. 🗡️✊🏒😛
I have never jammed this one, although I bought another revolver that needed work. It's fixed now of course.... 👍💙🤠
But the speed loaders do need practice, maybe I need to make one of my own. I think a central button to drop the rounds like a ratchet release button would be faster and more intuitive...may need to machine one of those.🔘 With a release button of course. 🔘
👍😁🚀🏦💸
Fun fact: most speed loader pouches also work well for the standard flush-fit Ruger 10/22 mags.
That's cool, they are best when handy! The long ones need to be shaved some to get them to work well.
