With handguns I'm an auto guy. I have a few Glocks, a Kimber 1911 clone, a CZ52, a .380acp Makarov, a .380 Ruger LCP and a suppressed Browning Buckmark. That pretty much filled my needs.
I tore a tendon in my shoulder while hiking in Panama. I had to get shoulder surgery. With one arm in a big padded sling it quickly became apparent I couldn't cycle the slide on my Glock 27 carry gun. I got a 3" Ruger SP101 in .357mag. Nice revolver, built like a tank. It's my go-to carry gun when I don't have two fully functioning hands and/or arms.
Then my landlord got a new .38 J-frame and was selling his old Model 38 Lightweight Bodyguard. It was a great price and I had the cash so why not? Nice little gun. Very light, conceals well. Kinda fills the gap between the LCP and G27.
Will I get another revolver? If I see a screamin' deal on something interesting, maybe. I guess if I took a trip to Alaska I'd want a powerful revolver. And a sweet 6" Colt Python would be a great target gun, though I doubt I'll ever have that much spare change lying around.
What made you buy your revolver(s)?
