It's 2021: Let's park those EDC revolvers and get serious

Not open for further replies.
I was the captain of a security detail with all my officers carrying Glock 22s. I carried a 4" S&W 686 with a S&W 12-2 in my cargo pocket. I told my crew that if they could outshoot me at qualification I would Switch to a Glock. I'm no Jerry Miculek, but I retired carrying my revolvers.

Sent with some arcane communications device.

How can that be? The others were carrying Glocks and science and physics PROVES they're better.

Seriously, I am better with wheelguns, too, and when I said this on the Kansas forum the guy accused me of throwing the comparison test. I made no such test.

To this day, I still think that he was a major reason the owner never put the forum back up after it got hacked. I miss that place, although I don't miss that particular poster.

So you worked in management for a private security company?

I retired in August 2018 as the last revolver toter on my agency.

No disrespect intended but it's been made very clear
that you are not and never were a police officer.

Can you tell us exactly which "Agency" you retired from?

It's because their so-called "science" is based almost entirely upon the outdated theoretical doctrine which was spawned by the FBI/IWBAs overly simplistic unilateral Ballistics Gel Testing Protocol.
Which has left hunters around the world rolling their eyes since its inception because simple examination/observation of the wounds on hunted animals has always told a very different story.

In addition, it's easy for someone who has never really trained with Revolvers to make unilateral presumptuous statements which pretty much amount to; "I can shoot Semiautomatic Pistols faster and more accurately than Revolvers, ergo so can everyone else on planet earth!"

Unwritten rule #1 DON'T FEED THE TROLLS!!!

You do realize the OP made this thread on 12/5 and 11 days and 11 pages later he still has not made another post. Don't feed the Troll...

Nobody is feeding the troll, his thread has been reappropriated as an otherwise civil discussion, and never became the chaotic argument he presumably intended it to be.

Besides, I honestly don't believe that Univibe is a troll, or at least not entirely, his assertions remain too consistent for him to be a troll, ergo I surmise that while he is certainly gets a kick out how folks react to his extreme and most likely exaggerated opinions, they're not complete fabrications, otherwise he would have dumped this shtick by now in favor of something new which folks haven't gotten used to and thus no longer react so strongly to anymore.
Honestly, I used to argue with him like crazy over stuff like this, but then he sort of jumped the shark after he attempted to make an especially absurd argument that a Center Mass 9mm FMJ was equally as effective as 12 Gauge Magnum Slug, which was just too ridiculous to dignify with a response. So now I mostly ignore his posts.

But yeah, I don't think he's a troll, at least not entirely. He hasn't responded because nobody agrees with him and he really doesn't have a viable counter-argument with which to defend his opinions, so he ducked out.
 
I extended this opportunity to the OP yesterday.

"Univibe, no snarkasm or piling-on intended. You seem to be intelligent as you have shown that you know your way around the written word but I have to wonder why you choose not to address questions to or charges leveled at you?

A little honesty would go a long way in establishing some measure of credibility. Otherwise folks are going to hit the "ignore" button on you.

Tone down the rhetoric and come swim with the rest of us salmon.

If nothing else we are a forgiving bunch."

Offer still stands.
 
I thought I would drop in and see how things were going. 206 posts later and we're still here beating each other and the the OP up. Has anyone noticed that he/she left right after they dropped the trd in the punch bowl?
