I wouldn’t recommend playing Russian roulette without a revolver.

In all seriousness, depending on many variables, you can leave a revolver loaded for a longer period of time. As far as real advantage, bigger calibers, and a relatively small footprint. so if you needed a hiking gun, a revolver may suit you more than having a higher capacity smaller caliber.

Home defense having a weapon that fires from just pulling the trigger may be advantageous depending on your situation.

Also, a back up weapon revolver seem to be favored.
