    Should everyone use a revolver as their main handgun?

    Revolvers have the advantage of being nearly impossible to jam, but firearms tech has come a long way now to the point where semi-autos have pretty much evened those stats and semi-autos have the advantage of being able to fire
    more than twice as many rounds without a reload and can also accept
    suppressors (silencers to those who have received their firearms knowledge
    from Hollywood).
