Smith & Wesson 586 Distinguished Combat Magnum. Bought a LONG time ago, pre sell out. 6" barrel, .357 magnum. Very nice, one of my favorites.

Thinking about getting a Colt Python next.

S&W K22 (.22) with six-inch barrel, target sights and grips. My favorite for sentimental reasons: My dad and mom gave it to me for my eighth-grade graduation present many years ago. Can't ever part with that, especially since he's gone now; brings back good memories ever time I look at it, plus it's a really nice gun. [:)]

I tend to like revolvers over the auto, except for the 1911, of which I have more than a few. For revolvers I have a 454 Ruger SRH, 44Mag SRH, Colt 44Mag Anaconda, S&W 44Mag V-Comp, two Colt Dick Specials, a Colt Agent, 357 Colt Combat  Cobra, 44mag Desert Eagle and soon to be added a 50 Desert Eagle. Woops, almost forgot a 38Spl S&W airweight bodyguard.

I love revolvers.  The 1911 and German Luger are the only autos I love more than revolvers.

"Cut my teeth" on a S&W Model 19 with 2.25" barrel with .38s loaded in it (I was only 12), and .357 loads in a Ruger Blackhawk with 7 1/2" barrel.

My personal collection is two Model 19 with 4" barrels (one blued, the other one nickel finish), and a Model 66 with the 2.25" barrel.  Also have an OLD Colt .41 caliber DA revolver from the 30's--but would be scared to death to shoot it as it is in bad condition (family heirloom that wasn't taken care of at all).

Looking to buy a Model 19 with 2.25" barrel currently, and maybe some Ruger .22LR revolvers for my kiddos.

I have always prefered revolvers over semi-autos
excluding of course the M1911A1. Just a little sentimental about the wheel guns and my S&W M-66. It was my first duty gun. I would take the .357 magnum over most any semi auto round any day. Excluding of course the .45ACP.

Wow, looks like S&W was really the wheelgun king.

8" Dan Wesson .357 SS

I prefer automatics purely from a perspective of engineering.

However, I do like S&W revolvers.

I have 2 of them are pre-sell out:

629 Classic .44 mag with 6 1/2" barrel
640 .357 with 2 1/4" barrel.

Both of these revolvers kick more than most of my automatics

Got a few:

S&W 686 .357 mag 6" (pre sell-out)
S&W 629 mountain gun .44 mag 4" (pre sell-out)
Ruger Super Redhawk 454 7.5"

Colt Python.  6 inch, that incredible Colt blue and a factory Ted Tedford action job.

Oh yeah, and a Model 29, 65, 642 and, when they pull their head out, one of those green Model 629 Hunters.

Big revolver fan here.  I just shoot them better.

I like to show up at the indoor range with my 686 and shoot my homemade [b]FULL HOUSE[/b] .357 magnums.  

It must be the sonic boom created when the bullet goes supersonic that gets everyone's attention. [8D]

At last count there were;

51 S&W revolvers

A dozen Rugers single actions

Nearly a dozen Colts (mostly single actions)

Four Virginia Dragoons

Close to two dozen cap and ball revolvers

And some where in the neighborhood of 20 other miscellaneous revolvers.

I suppose that would qualify me as a revolver fan. But then I have an auto or two as well plus some handguns such as single shots and derringers that do not fall into the revolver nor semi-auto classification.
