VH>JS>Firing rapid fire, unless you are really used to it, you can lose your
VH>JS>count very quickly:  one of the drills in a recent PSA shoot was 18
VH>JS>rounds, then a re-holster, and six rounds into a target at close range,
VH>JS>about 15 feet.  No problem, right?  Right.  About one fourth of the
VH>JS>shooters fired only five rounds, including me.
VH>JS>SG>But would a 12-shot revolver be a "high capacity ammunition feeding
VH>JS>SG>device"? So I guess they won't make one after all!
VH>JS>I'm waiting for a centerless cylinder, or at least a pop out cylinder.
VH>JS>Load up three extra cylinders, pop the spent one out like a magazine,
VH>JS>slap in a new one and have at it.  Cylinders pop out anyway, they just
VH>JS>are not detchable.  The only real need would be a reliable centering.
VH>What you want is a Dardick.  Dardick's guns were not successful
No I don't want a dardick!  I suppose it's almost as fast and a lot 
cheaper to use speedloades, I was just rambling on i guess.
Moot point now with the ten round limit.  Can you imagine some of the 
backlash if we ever get the 10 round limit repealed?  3 dozen makers 
copying the Grendel P-30 in various chamberings... :-)
