The Yankee Marshal identifies a significant gap in the firearms market: the absence of a small, lightweight revolver chambered in 10mm Auto. He argues that such a firearm would serve as an ideal backup to 10mm semi-automatic pistols, a caliber he considers optimal for concealed carry. While acknowledging potential engineering challenges, he proposes solutions like a 5-round cylinder in a J-frame size or a slightly larger platform like a Colt Cobra or Kimber K6S.
This video provides a top five list of small revolvers recommended as backups for semi-automatic everyday carry (EDC) firearms. The primary recommendation is to match the backup revolver's caliber to the primary EDC's caliber for ammunition interchangeability. The list covers revolvers for .380 ACP, .40 S&W, and 9mm calibers, highlighting specific models like the Taurus 380, Charter Arms Pitbull, Taurus 905, Smith & Wesson 940, and the Ruger LCR.
This video provides a profile of the Taurus 444 UltraLite revolver, highlighting its suitability for concealed carry or as a backup firearm. It emphasizes the revolver's 44 Magnum caliber, lightweight construction (just over 28 oz), and features like a stainless steel matte finish, cushion insert grip, patented Taurus Key Lock System, fiber optic sights, and a cylinder release lock. The 4-inch barrel contributes to an overall length of nearly 10 inches, and the revolver holds six rounds.
