It’s interesting to compare revolvers and semi-autos.
If one is shooting double action, most everyone agrees that semi-autos are vastly superior.
Shooting any decent revolver single action, compared to even the best tuned Glock trigger will be a revelation in what you have been missing.
Where we are at now, my opinion follows the market- semi autos are best for shooting faster. Shooting competition, the 1911 is the gold standard, but if you want a hunting big-bore... the gold standards are big revolvers. There are niches where revolvers compete. They simply rule when it comes to big bore.
To compare the best at the jobs a Glock presently does, I think a nice old S&W does in .38 will keep you interested and inform your shooting.
To experience something at a job a Glock would struggle to do, consider a quality big bore single action revolver.
I think your choice and the thread are spot on. But for your second revolver... maybe consider going big!
