Revolver

[Horty]

I am looking to get a revolver and think that the Taurus ones look "cool," however I am a semi-auto guy and don't know much about wheel guns, are Taurus revolver's any good? I like them because they look really bulky and solid. I also saw that S&W make an M&P revolver, is that any good? It kind of has that bulky tacti-cool look to it, the down side is that it is really expensive. What do you all think? Any suggestions?

I love mine. It is a Taurus 617 7 shot .357. I use it as my EDC .

If your going to keep it, then by all means get a Taurus. They make great revolvers, but their resale sucks. If you plan on selling it down the road then get a Smith.

I'd never buy a Taurus. Too many reasonably priced smiths and rugers out there.

Ruger or Smith.

Yes, it does.

OP, while the Smith & Ruger revolvers are considered better quality, the Taurus revolvers are perfectly serviceable. Their wheelguns are far better than their autos IMO.

Thank you as I posted love this gun . Great balance of weight,conceal ability,looks and number of rounds it holds. Haters are going to hate no matter what.I still think most haters have not shot one.
