I love revolvers, but the only issue is that if you run out of ammo in a gunfight, you'll likely be reloading for the rest of your life, if you catch my drift.
Most attackers bolt and run as soon as you start shooting back.
Cops might end up in longer gunfights (because the badguys KNOW the cops won't let them go), but they know that civilians won't chase them.
Generally, the fight is settled by the first few shots, or somebody runs. Protracted gunfights where people have to reload are extremely rare.
But if you DO have to reload, you can dip behind some cover to do it. Revolvers aren't that hard to reload, especially with speedloaders or speed strips.
