Right? If you're pulling too much with your finger, it can cause the weapon to, or the round to go to the right or the left. And what we'll have to see is even though its reliability side is high, people have a tendency to not be able to manipulate the trigger as easily.Īnd that can cause the weapon to go to the inside or outside. So the revolver tends to be more on the heavy side. Trigger pull is the poundage of force applied to the trigger in order for the mechanisms to engage and for the firearm to actually fire the round.Īnd those are usually what? Five to eight pounds of pressure? One of the downfalls or some of the drawbacks to the revolver, however, is it the way it is set up, so that it only is a straight trigger pull is that trigger pull can be very heavy for a lot of people. If you have less skill set when it comes to firearms.Īnd in functionality, you're absolutely correct. Firm grip, making sure that the slide goes all the way back, and reengages. And so there's a lot less mechanics that you have to think about. In my experience, it's kind of a foolproof weapon. They just want to be able to pull the trigger when they need to and have the firearm operate as it should. This is a popular option for most people that don't want to deal with a more mechanically inclined firearm, such as a semiautomatic. So with every pull of that trigger, the cylinder rotates and a new round is available. The revolver definitely has its place when it comes to functionality and reliability. Okay, so we actually have several semi-automatic firearms and then we have one revolver. So let's start with what we've got on the table here. If you can't function the firearm properly, there's no point owning it in the first place. So what we tend to do is have a variety of different firearms available for people to test, to feel, to see if they can operate functionality wise, because it does you no good. And that's one of the main issues that we tend to see.

Something where a advertised male may be able to handle a firearm in a certain way, may not be the same for a small petite female.Īnd what we'll often see is that miscommunication between the sellers of the firearms and the purchaser, not knowing exactly what they need or how to go about that properly. But what we also see on the flip side of that is not everybody can handle a particular firearm the same way. One of the most common mistakes that we see when people come in to purchase a firearm, whether it's their first firearm, or maybe they're taking that next step of going from a recreational standpoint to a personal defense standpoint, is they always tend to lean towards the smaller type firearms because they think smaller is better for concealment, which in theory would be true. And we're going to talk just briefly about the pros and cons of each firearm, given your physical characteristics. Do you have a small hand, large hand, strong grip, maybe not quite as firm of a grip? So Josh is going to cover a couple of firearms that we have displayed here. After that, it comes down to your physical abilities. So really like I wrote in our article, the purpose of the firearm is really the driving factor. And that can be through a variety of different ways of choosing a proper caliber and choosing the proper size of firearm for your intended purpose, whether it's home security, personal defense, or just for recreational purposes. Ultimately after we've made that decision to take that next step and own the firearm, the next thing is to be finding the right firearm for you. So Josh, what do you think's one of the most important things you need to do when you are starting down the road and making a decision to purchase a firearm? So he is very astute when it comes to firearms and the knowledge of how to properly fit someone for a firearm. He's a former police officer and SWAT officer with sniper duties. So Josh here is an expert in firearms, obviously. And we're going to talk about some of the key decisions that go into making a gun purchase, and then the proper follow-up after you make the decision to do that.

Today, we're going to follow up on the article that I had written previously on whether or not to own a gun. He is the owner and operator of Dark Horse Tactical.

I'm here with Josh Nilson, a good friend of mine. I'm Michael Johnston with Boss Security Screens.
