Why buy a semi-auto pistol..

The speed with which you shoot (aside form the amount of native talent that your genes provide) only depends on practice. I carry either revolver and semi-auto, and it really doesn't matter.

By the way, regarding .357 magnum--Taurus makes a 8-round, S&W make a 7-round.

Anyway, thanks for that link. It's always a pleasure to watch skill like that.

Don't know what Miculek actually used, but I remembered reading about this 8 shooter.

I stand corrected on the 8 shot .357 issue. Thanks for the heads up :)

from the way the barrel was NOT jumping around, I would also guess some "special" hand loads as well. ;)

If you take a good look at the gun, front end of the barrel looks like it's extended and ported, that would stabilize the gun fairly effectively.

I stand corrected, looks like it is jumping around a bit, noticed it on the second time he shot. Is it just me or is everyone else not getting sound with this clip?
