I am not an expert on the revolver, but why couldn't we limit them to three bullets too? Either require that they be smaller to the point where they only hold three, or simply redesign the mechanism such that they only hold three clips?

Again, if you can't shoot your deer, duck, rabbit, or whatever with 3 bullets, you are just a lousy shot and should not have a weapon anyway.

Revolver? Holding a clip? Well, seeing how a revolver doesn’t have clips or magazines, I think you surpassed yourself in ignorance.

Some revolvers do hold clips. Full and half moon clips. The SW 625 45 ACP uses moon clips to accommodate the rebated rim.

But this of course is not what Big T was talking about. But there are actually quite a few revolvers that use clips.

My revolver is a fully-semi-automatic helical belt-fed 1.500 round magazine-high style clip with mil-spec armor piercing, cop killing, school seeking omnipotent explosive incendiary tracer rounds with rejuvenating unobtainium expanding sabot core reversible dynamic super maxed out bullets designed for maximum carnage when I engage the flip up thingy!

None of your business that people want to own 100 clips in a weapon

LOL. Indeed. But I was being serious. Revolvers chambered in rebated rim ccartridges like 45 ACP and 9mm do indeed use clips. Even standard revolver chamberings like 38 357 can be had accommodated to use moon clips.

They are way faster than regular speed loaders. Serious ICORE shooters use nothing but moon clipped revolvers. My son can actually beat me on reload times with his 625 against my 1911.

LMAO....never forget the first time he did that to me in a match. He wont let me forget. Bwahahaha!!

What really needs to be brought to attention is Joseph Enouy's death machine. He designed a 48 shot revolver, that needs no special permits to own or anything. How can we let people roam the streets with these things ?!
