I love my Blackhawk, I can load some powerful bear loads for it, but it takes all day to reload. One shot is enough if you can shoot. Recoil doesn't affect the first shot, so flinching is not as much of a problem. Wyatt Earp said shoot slow and don't miss. He was never scratched by a bullet.

Of course,six bullets it too much to kill 1 people,to kill a people,you just need to shot the in the face,and they die,even with a glock,didn't need a revolver or a desert eagle
@Bobby Sands This. Head shots are tricky. There *is* a sort of triangular zone of the two eyes to the nose that if you hit there square on, that's an instant down. But much more reliable is into the "boiler room" as deer hunters call it. Heart/lung area; the center of mass of the thorax. This is why in defense shooting you are taught to aim for center of mass to stop the threat. And don't try shuffling off this mortal coil yourself with a gun, you're sure to miss. Get help.
One thing I've never understood is why in so many games revolvers and shotguns deliver one-shot kills, but enemies become bullet sponges when it comes to assault rifles.
Visual gameplay mechanics and challenge over realism. Look at the original Ghost recon, that had proper weapon damage and for the most part, assault rifles accurate to 2-300 yards, sniper rifles able to hit a head at double that. Even in the city levels fighting tended to happen at mid-long range because ambush tactics were so effective, you had to hard scan terrain and windows and still probably get taken out from a direction you thought you had checked. The game was tense, slow and frustrating while being one of the most engrossing experiences at the same time, a victory was hard earned, team play was essential and objectives were slow to capture. Most modern shooters tend more towards a sporting event, ranges are shorter, cover is a lot less important, recoil is amped up to encourage closer fighting and objectives swap faster because movement of the character is closer to that of a weightless robotic gymnast than of the average soldier laden with tens of kilos of gear. More people play, more people play and more people are willing to try an easier to get into experience.
No game is truly realistic because everything that is, is not fun and therefore not suitable for gaming which is designed to be fun. Even the simulator genre isn't as realistic as stepping out of your door and do it RL. Maybe in a few years the borders will fade away but for now games are meant to be entertaining.
El Neuro Quila Red Orchestra 2 has realistic weapon damages and yet there is a good deal of balance in the gameplay, as long as you know what you are doing.
*_Just a bit of info for the uninitiated:_* *Not all revolvers are magnums; for example: Revolver Ocelot's Colt SAA uses .45 Colt which is a low velocity round. *Semi-automatic magnum pistols do exist; the most famous example is the Desert Eagle. *Magnum handguns are used for handgun hunting; delivering high calibre rifle power in a shorter package on big game. *Military and Police forces almost never use handguns more powerful than the .357 Magnum (.357 was once the standard police calibre in the US). This is due to recoil, over penetration, and ammunition costs.
@Heroin Bob .30 Carbine is not considered a "magnum" handgun caliber because it was a cartridge developed for rifles. "Magnum" has a very loose definition in firearm terminology, but when you're talking about handguns there's some categories: 1. Magnum pistol calibers are usually upscaled versions of weaker calibers. For example .357 Magnum is an enhanced .38 Special, and .44 Magnum is an enhanced .44 Special. 2. Some calibers are not upscaled rounds, but are still considered magnums. Examples are .500 S&W Magnum and .50 Action Express. 3. Handguns that use rifle rounds may sometimes be considered "magnums", but the ammunition they use are definitely not. A BFR may be called a "magnum revolver". but .45-70 Goverment is not. BONUS: .30 Carbine was designed during WWII to replace .45 ACP and the M1911 pistol, but failed to do both. It is more powerful than standard pressure sidearm calibers like .45 ACP, 9x19mm, .40 S&W, etc. However it is outclassed by "magnum" calibers like .357, .44, .454, .500, etc.
Another interesting fact is how the French GIGN used to have a .357 sniper that was frequently in use. It’s a revolver with a sniper scope and a bipod and sometimes an extended barrel with a suppressor or other muzzle attachment.
reloading revolvers in games is never shown well. it's very difficult to reload with anything resembling speed unless all shots have been fired. the ejection rod doesn't care if the round is spent or not and you can't just upturn the gun and hold the good rounds in expecting spent rounds to fall out of the cylinders. hot magnum loads cause the brass to expand a little which gets them stuck in the chambers. using the ejection rod is the only way to get them out unless you want to pry them out with your fingernails. and that is not fast. I figured out a way and if anyone's curious I'll share. but don't even get me started on cowboying the chambers shut. that is a sin and also a great way to put unneeded stress on the crane arm and index catch.
The revolver's in Verdun are pretty realistic reload. The Weebly has a speed loader, the French revolver (don't remember the name) ejects all cartiges and reloads individually, and the Germans Reichrevolver eject and reload individually with help of a reloading rod. You can tell that the Germans revolver is one of the worst guns in the game.
Well for cartoony shooters like overwatch tf2 where realism doesnt matter, its okay. But in realistic shooters like cod, it could matter, but it could reduce the speed of the game though.
It’s a pet peeve of mine seeing people misquote simple things that could easily be checked. Ghosts actual line is: ‘We’ve got it sir.’ Shepard’s second line is: ‘Good, that’s one less loose end.’ Come on guys, let’s get these things right. Yes, I’m very fun at parties.

The Magnum I respect is the S&W .500. It maybe overkill, but it is the most powerful production handgun in existence. I would love to see it in more games.
It's a pointless round that was apparently "designed for all big game in north carolina" which is bs. It hurts your hands like hell when you shoot, so it's not a regular gun that you'll like using in the range. Its rounds are premium and expensive unless you hand-load. Get a goddamn .44 instead. At the very least the rounds aren't THAT expensive.
@@LordFakeGodz it's 650$ now when it got released it was 850$ which you couldn't even buy in the pistol round , it can still kill armoured enemies with 3 body shots
"In video games, the act of reloading is sometimes aided by a speedloader" cut to Borderlands revolvers, chucking the entire cylinder out and grabbing a new one
Which was actually what people used to do around the time of the American Civil War, and early Wild West; as it took too long to reload the black powder cartridge and ball into the cylinder
RevanBladeZ Yeah I was even surprised that he used this quote since he mentioned before that he never played an MGS game. Anyway, since he used that quote, he had to use either the original MGS or TTS and I'd rather see TTS.
Personally, I would consider a single action ("Old West") revolver and a magnum revolver to be in two different categories. Although they fulfill the same intended role, the technology represents two entirely different eras and contexts. The single action represents the 19th Century and the frontier, while the magnum revolver represents the 20th Century and police as much as it represents hunters.
"Or wandering the wasteland" >doesn't show fallout new vegas, a game with a signature song dedicated to revolvers, a cowboy theme, and a larger variety of revolvers Video is great btw, this is just a small gripe
release R8 were OP as frag ,1 shot kill and stuff, get nerfed less than a week or so, in that first week the AWM nearly got replaced though because who need a sniper rifle when you can 1 shot everyone close up
Same here. If the Ranger Sequoia can’t be smuggled by Sneak, I’ll love the Lucky Single-Action Army to the GRAVES. Mysterious Magnum’s good too.. but it’ll stay on a shelf.
there are a number of people who would say that the reliability of a revolver is less than it's slide action counterparts. someone once told me that the stigma of reliability comes from, or at least partially from, not being used as often as a slide action revolver and not seeing as many rounds going through it. at the gun range a slide action weapon is more likely to have more rounds fired through it then a revolver. they can still Jam, I've had it happen to me before several times. modern designs have gone far past Simply Having a hammer striking a primer. a good example of this would be the Chiappa Rhino. not referring to its 6 o'clock position Barrel, more so its design in which the hammer initiates a strike fire pin Integrity placed within the gun
the hammer striking a firing pin with a trigger operated transfer bar is the only way to make a drop-safe and hammer-fall safe revolver. having the pin on the hammer is more reliable but if you drop the gun the inertia from landing can potentially cause the hammer to bounce and strike the primer and that's a bad thing. also there was an issue with pulling back the hammer and accidentally dropping it before it locked back causing the gun to fire unintentionally. some hammer fired guns have safety notches to catch the hammer but a transfer bar serves the same purpose. this was such an issue with single action army pistols that it became pretty standard practice to only load 5 chambers and keep an empty chamber indexed to prevent shooting themseves in the leg.
Semi-autos are resistant to torture (constant use) need to be maintained even without use Revolvers are resistant to neglect (Lack of use) don’t need to be maintained without use

4:15 you have destiny footage but didn't show "the last word"? that gun is like, the embodiment of the allure about the revolver. you even fire it in an automatic fashion by fanning the hammer. you get DAMAGE BONUSES for firing it from the hip! the game WANTS you to go old-west style. i mean, you actually twirl the thing whenever you pull it out
Suprised you didn't use the .44 in Battlefield 3 or 4, I only saw the Rex from Battlefield 4 shortly... In my honest opinion Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 probably has the best looking and more or less best feeling .44 Magnum out of any game so far. Magnum in Call of Duty feels really dull, not enough power, sound or even recoil...
I quite liked the Python in BO1, the sound is really echoing and it's 2 shot kill so it's not that bad. Recoil isn't too good though :/ I quite liked the revolvers in Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, they felt really powerful (though that may owe a but to the slow-motion effect you can get)
Agreed. Battlefield has the best sound and recoil. But I guess he didn't want to play BF4 multiplayer and take the time to unlock it, because it's the last pistol unlock. And in singleplayer, the Rex is the only sidearm available.
Harish Parchuri Yeah that is true. It's just a shame, if he did play Battlefield a lot more he would have access to A LOT of famous weapons. Hell he could even just ask other players to record footage for him. I'd be happy to spend a couple hours on Battlefield 3 and 4 to record guns for this amazing series.
BoisegangGaming You have no idea how OP the Rex was in BF3 if you don't think it deserved a nerf in BF4. You could spam the REX without any recoil and get 3 kills with it in 2 seconds or less. Now the way they nerfed revolvers in BF4 was really bad at first, especially as they introduced the Desert Eagle which was far superior. But after a bit they buffed every revolver and right now they are just fine, not overpowered but nor underpowered like at the beginning.
The only game that I can think of that gets close to reloading a revolver correctly is the first Rainbow Six Vegas. Every game adds a stupid animation for spinning the cylinder and/or whipping the cylinder shut, and most of them don't show the character using the ejector rod. There is no point in spinning the cylinder, whipping the cylinder shut damages the gun over time, and the ejector rod is usually required to get the casing out because they expand after being fired. Of course, there are several methods to reloading a revolver, but these three things are universal.
+Riflemanm16a2 If you oil the chambers preemptively, and don't mix ammo types (ie. alternate between firing specials and magnums) you can often rely on gravity to drop the casings and save your ejector rod some use. Chamfering cylinders helps with this as well. But yeah, if you like having nice things don't cowboy the cylinder on a revolver. Video games are stupid like that, and everyone's done it largely because of them.
Dude fuck off, it took him months to make 1, and if he makes a mistake, that is good enough excuse as ever for it. Hell, it's not even a mistake, what's so wrong with using COD footage, he didn't even use a lot of it. COD is a good example for guns, as it's name screams out guns. Maybe you try to make one, then you'll see how hard it is to make one, let alone run a whole channel based on the same quality
GOD DANG This video was so DOPE when he say all the quotes about revolver, it makes my backbone shaking... "Six bullets... more than enough to kill anything that moves."
I've always liked the idea of removing the entire cylinder for reloading. Kinda like a down-sized puckle gun. In fact, until this video, that's what I thought the Hand Cannon from Bioshock Infinite did. My bad. But it still sounds cool. Replacing the entire cylinder appeal to anyone else?
The 1860's revolvers during the civil war had removable cylinders, all you did was remove the pin under the barrel, tilt the gun to the side, let they cylinder fall out and insert a new one. A good game that has this gun is Killing floor 2, and the Gunslinger perk has it. I think the reason why they stopped doing it is because carrying heavy ass cylinders was a pain, and it was a lot easier just to carry a butt load of bullets around that you can manually reload.
The Magnus in Warframe does it as well. EDIT: I can't believe I mentioned the Magnus and forgot about the glorious Sybaris revolver rifle. EDIT 2: Scratch that... the Sybaris isn't a revolver. :(

@Heroin Bob .30 Carbine is not considered a "magnum" handgun caliber because it was a cartridge developed for rifles. "Magnum" has a very loose definition in firearm terminology, but when you're talking about handguns there's some categories:
1. Magnum pistol calibers are usually upscaled versions of weaker calibers. For example .357 Magnum is an enhanced .38 Special, and .44 Magnum is an enhanced .44 Special.
2. Some calibers are not upscaled rounds, but are still considered magnums. Examples are .500 S&W Magnum and .50 Action Express.
3. Handguns that use rifle rounds may sometimes be considered "magnums", but the ammunition they use are definitely not. A BFR may be called a "magnum revolver". but .45-70 Goverment is not.
BONUS: .30 Carbine was designed during WWII to replace .45 ACP and the M1911 pistol, but failed to do both. It is more powerful than standard pressure sidearm calibers like .45 ACP, 9x19mm, .40 S&W, etc. However it is outclassed by "magnum" calibers like .357, .44, .454, .500, etc.
Very well done. Good For You. I would like to see a video about the Mosin rifle, PPSh-41, "Tommy Gun", StG-44, SCAR and XM8.
The XM8 was only a prototype...
XM8 Isn't even Mentioned since it failed testing.
Rainbow Slushie Was it testing or a competition? Aka, did anything beat it out?
Well the Malaysian special forces use it. But the US Army and cancelled in 2005 october 31.
"the XM8 system may have faced competition from weapons such as from the FN SCAR, Bushmaster ACR and HK416"
Another interesting fact is how the French GIGN used to have a .357 sniper that was frequently in use. It’s a revolver with a sniper scope and a bipod and sometimes an extended barrel with a suppressor or other muzzle attachment.
I wouldn't say it was frequently in use. It was some sideline weapon for very specific situations.
reloading revolvers in games is never shown well. it's very difficult to reload with anything resembling speed unless all shots have been fired. the ejection rod doesn't care if the round is spent or not and you can't just upturn the gun and hold the good rounds in expecting spent rounds to fall out of the cylinders. hot magnum loads cause the brass to expand a little which gets them stuck in the chambers. using the ejection rod is the only way to get them out unless you want to pry them out with your fingernails. and that is not fast.
I figured out a way and if anyone's curious I'll share.
but don't even get me started on cowboying the chambers shut. that is a sin and also a great way to put unneeded stress on the crane arm and index catch.
The revolver's in Verdun are pretty realistic reload. The Weebly has a speed loader, the French revolver (don't remember the name) ejects all cartiges and reloads individually, and the Germans Reichrevolver eject and reload individually with help of a reloading rod. You can tell that the Germans revolver is one of the worst guns in the game.
Well for cartoony shooters like overwatch tf2 where realism doesnt matter, its okay. But in realistic shooters like cod, it could matter, but it could reduce the speed of the game though.
Zach Reddy looks like I have been playin just too much tf2
Realistic? are you daft?
If you played Receiver, you know why its a bitch to reload a revolver during combat.

The S&W 500 is in 007: Quantum of Solace by Treyarch, it would've been awesome to see some footage of it here.
It's a pointless round that was apparently "designed for all big game in north carolina" which is bs.
It hurts your hands like hell when you shoot, so it's not a regular gun that you'll like using in the range. Its rounds are premium and expensive unless you hand-load.
Get a goddamn .44 instead. At the very least the rounds aren't THAT expensive.

The best thing about revolvers is their simplicity. literally, there are fewer parts and no slide that could break from higher calibers

The MGS clip should've been the MGS 3 battle between Big Boss and Ocelot on the cave entrance where he's twirling the pistols.
I agree & I'm surprised there weren't more clips from MGS3.
i'm sure it's ultimately a mass appeal decision.
A MGS game with ocelot was used, no point in getting so fussy.
The gun looked as elegant and balanced as a piece of metal can be while being juggled.
"Six bullets. More than enough to kill anything that moves." That's why he used TTS.
RevanBladeZ Yeah I was even surprised that he used this quote since he mentioned before that he never played an MGS game.

Personally, I would consider a single action ("Old West") revolver and a magnum revolver to be in two different categories. Although they fulfill the same intended role, the technology represents two entirely different eras and contexts. The single action represents the 19th Century and the frontier, while the magnum revolver represents the 20th Century and police as much as it represents hunters.
There are single-action and double-action revolvers chambered for both regular and magnum loads. "Magnum" is, for the most part, just a brand name.

"6 Rounds, No Comprimise. Any Questions? Didn't Think So"
there are a number of people who would say that the reliability of a revolver is less than it's slide action counterparts. someone once told me that the stigma of reliability comes from, or at least partially from, not being used as often as a slide action revolver and not seeing as many rounds going through it. at the gun range a slide action weapon is more likely to have more rounds fired through it then a revolver. they can still Jam, I've had it happen to me before several times. modern designs have gone far past Simply Having a hammer striking a primer. a good example of this would be the Chiappa Rhino. not referring to its 6 o'clock position Barrel, more so its design in which the hammer initiates a strike fire pin Integrity placed within the gun
the hammer striking a firing pin with a trigger operated transfer bar is the only way to make a drop-safe and hammer-fall safe revolver. having the pin on the hammer is more reliable but if you drop the gun the inertia from landing can potentially cause the hammer to bounce and strike the primer and that's a bad thing. also there was an issue with pulling back the hammer and accidentally dropping it before it locked back causing the gun to fire unintentionally. some hammer fired guns have safety notches to catch the hammer but a transfer bar serves the same purpose.
this was such an issue with single action army pistols that it became pretty standard practice to only load 5 chambers and keep an empty chamber indexed to prevent shooting themseves in the leg.
Semi-autos are resistant to torture (constant use) need to be maintained even without use
Revolvers are resistant to neglect
(Lack of use) don’t need to be maintained without use
andrewesquivel tl;dr
I figured that, while a round can still fail to fire, you can just as easily rotate the barrel and fire the next shot
@@lavaracer1 well, not exactly the barrel but yes. While a gun with slide can jam in most diffrent ways, Revolver work very very good.

Suprised you didn't use the .44 in Battlefield 3 or 4, I only saw the Rex from Battlefield 4 shortly... In my honest opinion Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 probably has the best looking and more or less best feeling .44 Magnum out of any game so far. Magnum in Call of Duty feels really dull, not enough power, sound or even recoil...
I quite liked the Python in BO1, the sound is really echoing and it's 2 shot kill so it's not that bad. Recoil isn't too good though :/ I quite liked the revolvers in Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, they felt really powerful (though that may owe a but to the slow-motion effect you can get)
Agreed. Battlefield has the best sound and recoil. But I guess he didn't want to play BF4 multiplayer and take the time to unlock it, because it's the last pistol unlock. And in singleplayer, the Rex is the only sidearm available.
Harish Parchuri Yeah that is true. It's just a shame, if he did play Battlefield a lot more he would have access to A LOT of famous weapons. Hell he could even just ask other players to record footage for him. I'd be happy to spend a couple hours on Battlefield 3 and 4 to record guns for this amazing series.
The REX was my go-to secondary in BF3. Shame it was nerfed into uselessness in BF4.
BoisegangGaming You have no idea how OP the Rex was in BF3 if you don't think it deserved a nerf in BF4. You could spam the REX without any recoil and get 3 kills with it in 2 seconds or less.
Now the way they nerfed revolvers in BF4 was really bad at first, especially as they introduced the Desert Eagle which was far superior. But after a bit they buffed every revolver and right now they are just fine, not overpowered but nor underpowered like at the beginning.

NoDubstepHere I personally prefer the Raging Bull or the Anaconda.
The only game that I can think of that gets close to reloading a revolver correctly is the first Rainbow Six Vegas. Every game adds a stupid animation for spinning the cylinder and/or whipping the cylinder shut, and most of them don't show the character using the ejector rod. There is no point in spinning the cylinder, whipping the cylinder shut damages the gun over time, and the ejector rod is usually required to get the casing out because they expand after being fired. Of course, there are several methods to reloading a revolver, but these three things are universal.
+Riflemanm16a2 Half Life 2 revolver reload animation is really good too.
If I remember correctly, he does the pointless spin of the cylinder though in HL2.
+Riflemanm16a2 Klling floor 2 revolver loading is not too bad, even if they do the cylinder whipping.
Riflemanm16a2
Rainbow Six Siege is great,Ejector rod,Bullets,push the cylinder back.
+Riflemanm16a2 If you oil the chambers preemptively, and don't mix ammo types (ie. alternate between firing specials and magnums) you can often rely on gravity to drop the casings and save your ejector rod some use. Chamfering cylinders helps with this as well.
But yeah, if you like having nice things don't cowboy the cylinder on a revolver. Video games are stupid like that, and everyone's done it largely because of them.
Ugh. Thank you for inclulding that scene from metal gear solid where Revolver Ocelot does the little finger gun-flip. So badass.8
"God created Man, and Samuel Colt made him equal"
All I want with my revolvers is that it's able to have more recoil then a shotgun, but can kill any enemy with a single shot.
Get a .454 Casull.
This is the gun that lets you feel like a badass across centuries.
I was expecting more Revolver Ocelot in this video and at least Barry from RE1... Maybe less COD footage next time.
I was kinda hoping for Gears of War with the Bolter.
+The Gunslinger I wanted to see that
He puts footage in from games he plays. Also, the video game footage isn't even the point of these videos :/
Just make your own video and put whatever clips from the games you like.
Dude fuck off, it took him months to make 1, and if he makes a mistake, that is good enough excuse as ever for it. Hell, it's not even a mistake, what's so wrong with using COD footage, he didn't even use a lot of it. COD is a good example for guns, as it's name screams out guns. Maybe you try to make one, then you'll see how hard it is to make one, let alone run a whole channel based on the same quality

This video was so DOPE
when he say all the quotes about revolver, it makes my backbone shaking...
"Six bullets... more than enough to kill anything that moves."
I've always liked the idea of removing the entire cylinder for reloading. Kinda like a down-sized puckle gun. In fact, until this video, that's what I thought the Hand Cannon from Bioshock Infinite did. My bad. But it still sounds cool. Replacing the entire cylinder appeal to anyone else?
The 1860's revolvers during the civil war had removable cylinders, all you did was remove the pin under the barrel, tilt the gun to the side, let they cylinder fall out and insert a new one.
A good game that has this gun is Killing floor 2, and the Gunslinger perk has it.
I think the reason why they stopped doing it is because carrying heavy ass cylinders was a pain, and it was a lot easier just to carry a butt load of bullets around that you can manually reload.
Borderlands has entire-cylinder reloading revolvers, if you're interested.
Conor M.
They also have Sniper rifles with Revolver cylinders also.
The Magnus in Warframe does it as well.
EDIT: I can't believe I mentioned the Magnus and forgot about the glorious Sybaris revolver rifle.
EDIT 2: Scratch that... the Sybaris isn't a revolver. :(
In Battlefield 1's Russian DLC, if you expend all 7 rounds of the Nagant Revolver, you will remove the whole cylinder and insert a new one.
