The idea is if its good for the wilderness, its good enough for urban..the difference is, the target in the wilderness attacks while in urban, they run.
Mine is my 460V X-frame revolver with a five inch full lug muzzle brake equipped barrel. Shoots 460 S&W magnum, 454 Casull, all versions from mild to WILD of the 45 Colt, and even 45 Schofield. TK Custom altered the cylinder to take their stainless steel rigid moon clips. The 45 ACP moon clip also holds the 460 Rowland, 45 Super and 45 Winchester magnum using Starline brass. A extra length firing pin from Cylinder & Slide makes all cartridges fire with and without a moon clip. Versatility of ammunition choice to the maximum!!!
Now the last 46 years of in the woods and backpacking or Hiking gun's i have carry are Colt model 70 Government 45 ACP Ruger Blackhawk 45 ACP /45LC & Ruger Blackhawk Bisley 45 ACP / 45 LC S&W model 610 10 MM Browning Hi Power 40 S&W Ruger GP 100 10 mm Charter Arms Pathfinder 22LR Beretta 96A1 40 S&W Ruger Red hawk 45 ACP /45 LC if maybe big Bears Mossberg 500 or 590 12 GA
Finally a list that incorporates the Colt SAA! In .357 Magnum and at least a 5 1/2” barrel, it’s a great trail gun (a few of the clones are much easier to obtain however).
SAA's are Victorian era masterpieces. As such with practice, experience and understanding they are just magnificent. Second choice: Python, 1911... yup biased. I carried one for many years, nothing slicker and as accurate as a well tuned .45 Colt SAA. Those little 255 gr. rounds just jump in due to gravity. I like 357 in a Python, in an SAA 357's balance is bit off to me. But, I meant it's not like I don't want one! TC center, ah no.
The .454 Casull was popular in 1983, made by Freedom Arms. Having owned one since 2003, I can say it's the best made single action revolver ever offered in the USA. The Taurus version was prone to breaking under recoil in the late 1990's...

once the longarms come out, no pistol is going to amount to a hill of beans, folks. I say that as a proven world-class combat match pistol competitor. I have seen top hands miss entire 18"x24" torsos, in broad daylight, while both they and the target were holding still. this was with match handguns, ear and eye protection and nobody shooting at them. I've missed such marks myself. All it takes is to be trying to hit it faster than you've ever managed in practice, cause you've just SEEN another competitor do so. When it's for your life, you CANNOT settle for second place. So you'd BETTER have a silenced autorifle, with night sights, a subsonic ammo option, either in your hands, or on your assault sling, at all times. You'd also BETTER be wearing armor, have a solar charger, spare batteries, and dig a tunnel to hide in during daylight hours Have a year's supply of food scatter-buried around your BOL, the fish and game will be gone within 2 months of shtf. The cats and dogs will be gone a month later and then the cannibalism will start in-earnest. If you think otherwise, you're grossly ignorant. 90% of the population will be dead 6 months after the lights go out (and stay out)
If it were only for wilderness/away from people a revolver becomes viable in it's ability to shoot very high power ammo. compared to semi autos. I'd pick my 686+ or Ruger Redhawk 8 shot 357. But if it were for stopping power for large animals like bear I would opt for my Dan Wesson in .445 Super Mag. That also shoots 44 mag. In a concrete jungle I am back to semi auto with a higher capacity. For SHTF it's an AR or AK with a pistol backup.
Try shooting the second round after getting knocked on your butt, your wrist snapped out of joint, and pulling the barrel out of your forehead. There is always a compromise between power, control, and speed. DVC.
@@ms.annthrope415 well I must have it then Miss Anne because I can shoot that thing like Dirty Harry. The 454 Casull kicks even harder and I shoot that like a cap gun hahaha.. even one-handed. Maybe it's over 50 years of shooting experience. What do you think?
Many wheel guns work as either single or double action. In single action, most have a much better trigger than any striker fired semi-automatic (like a Glock). I have yet to shoot a striker fired semi automatic with a trigger that remotely compares to my S&W 629's single action trigger, or even my dirt cheap .22 LR Ruger Wrangler.
Yes, 357 or larger, Hard Cast Rounds over 1000 ft/sec..you're hanging yourself out with hollow points/wad cutters, personal defense soft points, fmj, you'd be a sought after snack in the woods but, a pistol is only a secondary means of survival, refer to rifle/shotgun, budget 12g shotgun and slugs will suffice
there's no need to buy any special gun for the "wilderness' than in the city. the same silenced AR-15 with a 22lr conversion unit and night sights and the same pocket 9mm with night sights, with the same ammo will do just fine in either place. If it's not shtf, you dont need the rifle. The pistol; will suffice just fine. for the 5-10 lbs you'd spend on a rifle or shotgun and enough ammo to do anything, you could have a bunch of big game snares (dogs, hogs, deer) some conibear traps for small game and LOTS of monofilament netting and trotlines. that stuff is FAR more likely to feed you than any gun. If you're any good with pocket 9mm it's FAR more effective than the Native American's bow and arrows were. Knapped stone heads, lashed onto arrows, dont fly very straight and you can't get the weight of the arrows to match each other very closely. They also didn't have the 3 finger "hook" hold on the bow string and a tab of leather to protect their fingers. They used the "aborigine grip, either thumb and finger pinching the arrow (ie, 30 lb draw bow) or they grabbed the arrow in front of the feathers (ie, crappy accuracy) yet they survived, eh? You can get 5 hits per second, they could (maybe) land an arrow every 3-4 seconds.
According to whom sfb. Try telling that to Custer. We had metal points and way better weight balancing ratios than you're aware of. And a certain elite bunch of warriors from my people held the Europeans at bay for over 500 years before we ever let their sorry a$$es come upon our coast. I think could go on but evidently you don't know shit about Indigenous people of Turtle Island that y'all call the United States of America.
You should make a list of guns to survive in the urban environment, it's much more dangerous than the wilderness.

9mm for the hood, 10mm for the woods.

No key-locks. Bad news.
The Colt SAA is indeed an iconic gun. But for every day use i rather would prefer a Ruger Blackhawk or a Vaquero If you want a more traditional look.
