Can someone please explain why anyone would want a revolver instead of a normal semi automatic?
Looks like you have to manually load etc.
Like JayTaz said they are more reliable and some people can't rack the slide of a pistol so they get a revolver...

I'm usually not a fan of these kinds of things, but this one seems pretty well done.

ETA: I wonder how long the lock holds a charge, but it looks pretty awesome.

ETA 2: Battery lasts for one year and is cheap to replace.

Over a year, but that would be a huge concern for me.  Needing it and the battery is dead.  They say it's not purely mechanical so without an electric charge you can't remove it.

Did you see the video on battery? It notifies you 3 months out...

Pretty clever.  Seems like they thought about everything.

Like trying to unlock it when you are under pressure?

Didn't we already discuss having the safety off while carrying because in the heat of the moment, you'll forget to disengage.

I think when you have a home intruder the same thing applies. No way you'll unlock in the heat of the moment.

It may be extremely difficult to obtain,
The best thing is to teach yourself to remain calm. If you calm and steady there is no heat of the moment.
Just an extra split second. Which may be to long.

Isn't this unlock like a combination lock? A lot different than a simple safety.

If you're going to forget to panic and forget to undo the safety, I don't want to know what else you're going to forget, like making sure the "intruder" is not your kid ch'v'sh getting a drink in the middle of the night.

Where are good places online to buy ammo? I usually use CTD, Cabelas, and PSA but wanted to see if there were others that you'd recommend.

Wait for sales at Cabelas and use discounted gift cards.
