I grew up shooting revolvers. When I got hired by the county I had to provide my own gun, so I bought a new 19-7 and a used 36ND. Over the years I have gone on to carry a variety of revolvers, currently relying on a SP-101 and a 340M&P. The only automatics I have carried were the Colt 1991A1 (full size and Commander) and the Keltec P32. I have never felt I was at a disadvantage with my revolver. Given the nature of my job if I ever have to fire my revolver it will most likely be in a really close range, one on one encounter. The revolver excels in that environment.
Beyond any practical considerations, I simply like revolvers. A Glock is a fine pistol, but it doesn't have the style of a revolver.
