Call me old, and guess what, I am. till shooting up a storm. 2 defensive advantages of a wheelgun when facing an evil-doer- (no springs are under tension unless you cock the trigger for single action firing (better trigger pull) and assuming your assailant can see at distance (unlike most of the wacked out meth-heads prevalent now-a-days) he can see the bullet tips in the cylinder in battery- no doubt that you are ready to punch him a new belly-button, right now!!RWTF
