Description

Some revolvers you buy. Some you should run from. Walk into any gun shop with the wrong wheelgun and the owner will slide it right back across the counter like it's radioactive. In this video we count down 12 revolvers that bleed value the second you buy them — from pot-metal plinkers to a best-selling carry gun that a single hairline crack turns into a $0 paperweight you can't legally repair. These guns aren't losers because they can't shoot. They lose money for everything around the shooting — cheap alloy frames, lawsuits and recalls, flooded used markets, a hated little lock, and names the internet refuses to forgive. If you're about to buy a used revolver — or trade one in — watch this first. It might save you from throwing your money away. CHAPTERS 00:00 – The gun shop test (why some revolvers are "radioactive") 00:24 – #12 Heritage Rough Rider 01:18 – #11 EAA Windicator 02:05 – #10 The RG / Röhm ("Saturday Night Special") 03:06 – #9 Charter Arms Bulldog & Undercover 04:30 – #8 Rossi drop-fire models 05:40 – #7 Smith & Wesson Governor 06:29 – #6 Taurus 605 & 856 07:28 – #5 MIM parts & two-piece barrels 08:24 – #4 Taurus Judge 09:29 – #3 Commemoratives & "limited editions" 10:25 – #2 Any S&W with the internal lock ("Hillary hole") 11:32 – #1 The cracked S&W Airweight (goes to ZERO) 👉 If this saved you from a bad trade, hit LIKE and SUBSCRIBE, and send it to the buddy who's about to overpay for a shiny commemorative. Then watch our breakdown of the revolvers that actually go UP in value. 💬 Which revolver on this list surprised you the most?
