53 here. Have been shooting handguns for about 45 years. Luckily Dad was a military firearms instructor. he would bring home big boxs loaded full of .38 spl. and .45 acp, once fired brass. Practiced on California ground squirrels as a kid. Have owned hundereds of hand guns and long guns. Currently own just a few good ones. Cheers!
I'm 34.Been shooting handguns since I was 13.Been more of a revolver guy the entire time.I keep considering and inquiring about autos(and do like some of them)but always seem to come back to revolvers.You just can't beat the reliability factor.
Old enough to know better....
Young enough to shoot at it again.

52 on the 22nd of this month. For once, I'm in the majority group:smt1099
Just turned 30 and at the beginning of a collection. Own a S&W Sigma .40
Enjoying the hell out of it too!
I'm 25, I own a 686plus and I'm about a week away from a 642.
Who knows, in 15-20 years I might look around and find myself with a collection.:mrgreen:

Im 24 and am still browsing for the handgun that I will like...
I need to get on the ball here i think.
I am officially in guys..My newly acquired S&W 686 w/6in Barrel qualifies me to be in this revolver group, right???
57 and I've been shooting hand guns for 42 years.
51 here, bought my First hangun a few days ago, looking forward to a few more!
35 here....
sounds like a bunch of whippersnappers. One guy said he is 71, Im almost 70 and i bet me and the 71 are as good as the 25s.
Just jokeing, but dont discount us.
Hey, 31 here i love to fire all guns. But, i do prefer an auto for carry. When it comes down to it they winout with capacity. Revolvers are nice however for there reliability. Was this OP some sort of test to see if young people dont like wheel guns???
P.S. I love my S&W model 17-4 22 cal. has a 8 3/8 in barrel and is the most accurate gun i have ever fired. 1in groups of six at 75 ft.
Well I'll be 53 this year and have been a cop since age 21. Back then we all carried S&W revolvers, and I still own and carry the Mod.60 J-frame I had as a detective. I also enjoy carrying my SP-101, 38 special from Ruger (nice solid gun) I also have a couple of Glocks, which our dept. also issues as well as a couple of pocket pistols (Beretta and Colt .25's) I've carried all of them off-duty from time to time depending on weather, dress mode,etc. But of all of them I love my revolvers the most. Just my 2 cents..thank you.
I've learned way too many lessons from people that some would discount them. I'm getting a little sore thinking about it :smt082Quote:

I'm 41. I am happy with either, however I carry a Glock or Kel-Tec more often than my S&W M-19. The autos just tend to be easier to conceal.:smt023
39 here. Currently own 5 handguns, only one of which is a revolver (Taurus Tracker .357).
I am 28. I carry a Sig P250 .45 on my person and keep my Taurus 85 in the truck at all times as a BUG.
28 and started shooting in the service at 18.
revoler is the best for home defense in my mind since there's no mag springs to wear out.
I'm 32 and half of my weapons are muzzle loading replicas, including a revolver. :mrgreen: I think I was born 200 years late.Quote:

35 here. Hunting and shooting my whole life but only in the last 5 years did I discover handguns. Looking to shot my first deer this fall with a 45 colt
I'm 63 and have had a revolver since 1968. Its a Ruger Single Six combo 22/22mag, the older three screw without any modifications by the factory. I still have the original Ruger box. Looks as good as it did the day I bought it and is my favorite for plinking.
