This review compares the reload speed of a Smith & Wesson swing-out cylinder revolver against a break-open Webley revolver, both in .38 S&W. Tests revealed nearly identical reload times between the two designs when using clean firearms. The Webley offers a unique selective ejection feature and better leverage for stuck cases, but the S&W M&P remains a preferred historical choice.
