Dunno if this has been done before, but what's yer preference? 'N why?
I like a nice double action revolver, preferably with a 4-6" full lug barrel, but my heart lies with single actions. My grampa taught me to shoot when I was a kid with his 4 5/8" .357 Ruger Blackhawk. Couple that with lotsa Gunsmoke & Bonanza re-runs, spaghetti westerns & John Wayne movies as a kid & I just really dig the aesthetic & feel of them.
Would I carry one for SD? Not anywhere near my first choice, but I wouldn't feel under-gunned should need arise. I've got all the "tactical"/HD/SD angles covered, but those guns are just tools, in my mind. SA revolvers are, to me, very cool, old school mechanical works of art. I like the feel of the action, the way they point & the SA trigger. I dunno, SA revolvers just make me smile. Same with leverguns. Mine are really only range toys, though I do have hopes of eventually taking a deer or bear with one of my .41s.
Not intended as a "one is better than another" debate. Just curious about what kinda wheelguns blow yer skirt up & what it is about them that draws you to them.
