I went to Washinton DC with my IRL friends recently and I noticed that most of the security seemed to use revolvers rather than automatics, why is this? Aren't revolvers objectively inferior?

They are probably issued or mandated by an archaic as fuck security company.
>no slide will that might get caught or obstructed by door frames, shields, or any other obstacles
That's the only advantage that comes to mind.
>>28372442
Yep, it's the same way in Vegas with the Casino security. They mostly carry revolvers.
>>28372422
>Expecting security guards to be able to use advanced technology such as automatic handguns
Nigga please, there is a reason not even the police wanted them.
>>28372422
Because in the capital, they're smart enough to know that all cops are racists and can't be trusted with high capacity, rapid-fire assault pistols.
Probably never replaced them, never fired them, and know they never will. Those guys have to interact with senators, not be operators.

Most security companies only provide their guards with revolvers, some like G4S only allow guards to carry the company issued revolver . Im guessing in DC its too much of a hassle to buy a personal handgun and carry it on duty so theyre stuck with having to carry company weapons.

Really wish I could have afforded one of those when they came into the country.

In my city revolver is an 8 hour class, semiauto is a 16 hour class. It's all about the money. Revolver certification costs companies less because they are considered "safer."
I WENT 2 FRANCE RECENTLY AND ALL OF THE ANTI TERROR POLICE USED .357 REVOLVERS AREN'T THEY FUCKING FAGGOTS
>>28373783
I feel like this is the most plausible and most likely answer.
>>28372422
Depends on what you are using the gun for. For security? I would take a semiauto any day. For hunting, a revolver is going to be more effective than most semi auto handguns.
>>28373261
Why do French operators use revolvers? What possible advantage could they have? I'm sure it's something, they don't fuck around, I just can't even guess.
>>28377646
That's a silly question
>why do the french ride cock-cycles and smoke baguettes?
Because they're french, that's all there is to it
>>28377684
It's a reasonable question, it's just your answer that's stupid.
>>28377646
because .357 mag drops ppl dead
>>28377646
Because they are big believers in ballistic shields, and autos can short-stroke if the slide hits said shield.
