May 2008 Arsenal—S&W 327 TR8 Revolver


Would you carry a revolver on duty if it had rails for accessories and an eight-round cylinder? Would you want a revolver like this in a tactical operation?

I would carry a revolver on duty with no rails and just six rounds. I remember doing it and never had a problem with feeling outgunned.

I like the extra shots and the rails may be helpful, but I am not allowed the rail type accessories right now anyway.
