A pristine 6 inch barreled S&W Model 19...

Colt Python, Colt Boa, Colt SAA, Colt Walker, Korth Combat, and S&W 27, 29, 57, 386PD, 500, Scofield. If I had to narrow it down to one, it would be a tie between the Korth and a Colt Python with that special factory tuned action.

Webely Fosbery semi automatic revolver.

Looks like in the video I posted on the last page, it would be annoying to load if you were trying to quickly. But very cool.

+1 for the Model 19. I have one just like it.

However, I think the coolest is the classic Colt SSA.



 

S&W 26-1 GSP over run.  .45 Colt.

This

I always thought the volcanic arms was pretty cool

Subject line unread?

Cool Yes, Revolver No...

 

My S&W Performance Center tuned 686 Classic Hunter of 1988 vintage.




This gun beats my pythons in terms of everything!

S&W had a hand to play in the production of them.

 

S&W also makes an AR-10 and yet that does not make it appropriate for a "Cool Revolver" thread...

 





Saw this interesting revolver over at Shoot Times.  Seems like a pretty interesting, even cool, looking revolver.

Hard not to like the old ppc revolvers, they're extremely accurate along with triggers to die for. Schneider built my s&w model #10 ppc revolver, it's provided me with countless hours of quality range time.



A couple of 357's that flat out shoot. Pictured with 1 of their favorite plinking loads, a 110gr wc (h&g #41) in 357 cases with a light load of bullseye powder. Their only doing 1300fps+ but like I said it's nothing more than a plinking load.



The dan wesson (top) has had a trigger job done on it by a local gunsmith along with a custom (1 in 10 twist) bbl and heavy bbl shroud along with a muzzle break. The extra weight + muzzle break allows this pistol to eat fullhouse 357's (158gr/170gr bullets) like peanuts but yet the recoil is like shooting a 22lr. Liked the 6" version enough that I had a 4" bbl'd version built. Nothing better than a ammo can full of 158gr cast hp with 8.0gr of power pistol in 357 mag cases and the dw's at the range to beat and bang on steel, dueling trees, bowling pins.




The s&w 686 competitor (bottom) has been impressive since day 1. Good trigger right out of the box and the adjustable weights allow the user to really dial this revolver in for the front sight picture/recoil/recovery & follow-up shots. I like a certain ammout of muzzle flip and the weights allow me to adjust the amount of flip for the load. Basically, I can take them out and shoot standard 38spl loads (save on powder/3.5gr vs 8.0gr per shot) and then put a couple of them back and shoot standard 357 loads or put them all back and shoot hot 357 loads. The end result is the same felt recoil and the same muzzle flip. And taking about 38spl loads, I haven't done allot of load development for the 686. But I did manage to come up with these last year. Really no need to go any further.



Found those loads and haven't bother to test for anymore. Those came from 2 of my favorite bullets, the h&g #50 wc and the micec 640 158gr hp. And no it isn't all fun and games, good quality revolvers don't ='s accuracy. And a bunch of junk for groups that looked like this.



Or worse, like this. Was looking for a 357 plinking load and kept getting groups like this, 5 in and 1 out with that h&g #41 110gr wc.



Then it hit me, my brass was junk!!! To old, shot too many times, 1 piece of brass would have a good solid feel to it when sizing it. The next piece of brass would'nt have any resistance at all. Ended up sorting thru them and tossing 3/4's of them out and bought 2,000 pieces of new 357 brass from starline.

Just a couple of revolvers that I enjoy taking to the range.

My GP100 was as cool as they come.




That's right, hot rod flames for the MFW.

Both surplus, and my coolest guns, I think. Ever since Paris, I've been CCWing either the Model 65 or the BHP.


I just love the simplicity, accuracy and durability of the 65.  It's a freaking Warhammer.

this is the correct answer, .454 preferably

Nice.... don't see PPC guns anymore. My Dad competed back in the  eighties with the tricked out Model 14.

 

Better trigger?

Doesn't take much to make a S&W trigger better than a stock Python

You bet!



 

One of my Smith's, a 1967 Model-29 un-fired. The interior of the case has been redone.




My 4 inch 629. Pinned but not recessed.



1968 Colt Python. Factory re-blue done before I got it.

Two different answers:

For absolute cool factor, I say the Colt Python.

For practical use, I say a S and W M and P R8.

Yup.... hell of a lot better an not as delicate as the Python.

 

Smith 14, 25, 28, 617.

Actually, it's tough to pick.

I like mine too.
Combat Magnum.

My favorite of new and old...

22-4 45ACP and Model 357.

They're beautiful, versatile, and excellent shooters.

Not many would agree with me but I'm really impressed with the Chiappa Rhino 60ds. lightweight 6" single/double action .357, comes with fiber optic sights, takes moon clips, pic rail top and bottom and a super low bore axis! The looks? Well I think it looks phenomenal but I have a thing for ugly guns
That seam in the middle though...

I'm sorry, but that is quite possibly the ugliest revolver I've ever seen. I know, to each their own but........just damn.

The last design of Emilio Ghisoni. The same man that designed the Metaba. He passed away in 2008. The Rhino came out in 2009.
 

Ugly guns need love too!
I totally get it though, It definitely doesn't fit in. Gonna take mine to the range this weekend and see if it lives up to the hype.

Blued 4" SMITH & WESSON N Frame with magna grips in 41 or 44 magnum or 45 Colt . Well balanced, carry comfortably and fit my hand perfectly.

This thing is like sex.  Blued steel sex.

My favorite revolvers are those that are utilized and have that "been there, done that" look about them. To that end, I humbly submit my own that is "still there, still doing it", as recently as a couple of weeks ago (bottom photo)

87th. Thanks for all the replies. I did not predict this many responses.

The Diamondback is one of my favorites.

6inch Model 29.

This. My Mk VI would be the last wheel gun to leave my collection.

I regularly regret selling the one I had.

8" blued Python.

I wish I had been smart enough to buy Colt's when they were reasonable priced. Damn good looking revolver.

Not sure it's the coolest by any means, but it's really cool to me.

My 686 Plus  TALO  5"

Smith and Wesson Model 19-3 with a 3 inch barrel and a brass front sight insert made in 1970.

You need to get a letter from Mr. Roy Jinks for that gun. I searched and searched, but have never found an example of a 3" model 19. I once heard there were only a few made. That is the first I have ever seen.

CLOSE!

The Blued Model 29, 5"!

I just sold mine.

Maybe one of these??
