With revolvers, theres no chance of limp-wristing or creating a stoppage. There’s no magazine to accidentally release and no slide movement to impair the action (if blocked, if ejected shells bounce back into the ejection port, etc.).

In addition, revolvers aren’t picky about the types of ammo they fire. When encountering misfires, rather than highly skilled clearance drills required to get a semi- auto back on line, revolvers only require that an operator squeeze the trigger again.

More importantly, revolvers are capable of firing while remaining completely concealed. Auto’s require sufficient distance from objects like clothing to cycle properly.
