The Revo rocks but consider this:
I love revolvers and own two J-frame bodyguards - steel S&W 649 with Hi-Viz and a 438 w/ XS front site (I like the compatibility of the same frame types, holsters and speedloaders work between the two).
I think the revolvers days are numbered, and here's why:
1) there are still plenty of ppl alive who have parents and grandparents who were revolver enthusiasts, military, or police, so the wheelgun tradition is being kept alive. They watched Dirty Harry, Hill Street Blues, Matlock, even NYPD Blue, and other media where revolvers were prominently displayed. These guys showed their kids how to shoot a Ruger Speed Six or a S&W 686.
2) there are plenty in the younger generation... think ppl born 1975-up who reached the gun-owning age around 2000-on, having missed the wheelgun-oriented movies and TV show era and ONLY grew up seeing semis in media.
3) at some point, I dunno, maybe in 20 years, there will be a sharp drop off of market share in revolvers when the guys who grew up with semis take their kids to the range to shoot their Glock 4th gens that (by then) they had for many years.
4) A revolver can hold 5 to 8 rounds (think 5-shot S&W 442, seven-shot GP100, 8-shot S&W 627), comfortably within the range of 6, 8, 12, or 17 rounds of semis (think the Kahr PM45, the M1911, M&P 45, and Glock 17). If guns like the FN 5.7 begin becoming popular, the cost of the guns and their ammo will go down, and their capacity ranges from 17 to 23 rounds, and the 5 to 8 of the revolver will then seem significantly less...
I'm hypothesizing a bit, but I believe revolvers will, in a couple of decades, slip quickly from their current strong market share as wheelgunners pass on and if rifle-caliber pistols take flight. The debates on gun forums may shift from "Revolver or Semi-auto?" but instead to "9mm or 5.7mm semi-auto?"
