   For the novice it is the revolver due to the point and shoot. Revolver on the nightstand is ready for any jump off unexpectedly action.
   For a more advanced user the semi-auto due to capacity and the last round slide held open insert next mag hit slide release is faster for back in action.
   Also the revolver has the heavier double action pull but it does have the shell casings stay in the cylinder feature where semi spits them everywhere, if that is a concern.
   Why not both? \(^_^)/

   I would agree. With the caveat you have in a manner that can be quickly and effectively deployed.

   If you need to walk away from the encounter when done, then a revolver.

   There’s not a lot of wheel guns spotted at IDPA matches. There’s a reason for that.

   @Brad,

   I would assume there are none.

   If the whole world and every possible life exigency and experience were an IDPA competition, that may be a determinative consideration.

   But …

   The do shoot wheel guns in the International Defensive Pistol Association. They have there own class. But I get your point.

   For a newbie, the revolver. For a shooter, either will work.

    The same reason they won’t let me snick a 75-round drum into my Draco pistol and compete. The rules are structured against it.

    Those “sport shooting” rules don’t apply in the real world.

    So you wouldn’t use a weapon with low capacity is a sporting contest but you would in a gun fight. OK.
