Poor revolver etiquette shown here will ruin your wheel gun

The late Barry Elliott from IraqVeteran8888 discusses proper revolver etiquette in this segment of ‘Gun Gripes.’

While this trick looks great on the big screen, it can cause incredible damage to the locking bolt particularly on larger revolvers.

Barry shows what to look for when purchasing a used revolver to avoid owning a weapon that was misused by its prior owner.
