The .32s?[edit]
Any objections to adding a short .32-caliber (.32 S&W, .32 Long, .32 H&R Magnum, .327 Federal Magnum) section? Surv1v4l1st (Talk|Contribs) 16:10, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Assault weapons ban[edit]
Any factual or statistical support for the assertion that the Federal Assault Weapons Ban actually reduced availability of magazines holding more than 10 rounds, as opposed to wanting to reduce their availability?97.91.254.54 (talk) 00:30, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
"Hammerless"?[edit]
Maybe this is a term some people use, but I've never heard it. As far as I know there is no such thing as a hammerless revolver. There are shrouded revolvers that still allow access the hammer, and there are revolvers in which the shrouding completely covers the hammer. But they are both variants of the shrouded revolver. There is traditional hammer, bobbed hammer, shrouded hammer, and fully shrouded hammer. In the rest of the firearms world, "hammerless" refers to a striker-fired design, and I've never heard of a revolver that uses a striker. Maybe "hammerless" is a common descriptor for these guns, but I don't recall ever seeing it before. Makes me suspect that someone put it on this page for lack of a better word, and as a result it WILL be a common term after enough people read the article. At the very least it ought to make it clear that the reason that "hammerless" is put into quotes is because it's not actually hammerless.

Style, bolded text[edit]
What is with the bolded text everywhere in the article? Especially the barrel lengths for each revolver. SOmeone has gone through and bolded and sometimes italicized every single mention of barrel length, as if they were trying to prove an argument with someone who said that barrel length was the most important factor in a snubnose or something, or they just thought the barrel length was REALLY important information or something. It's really annoying and it doesn't match the style on the rest of wikipedia.
Scandium[edit]
Scandium is an element, it is NOT an aluminium alloy. However the barrel might be made of an aluminium alloy that contains scandium, in which case calling it made out of scandium is wrong 142.183.104.181 (talk) 11:15, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
