I'd have thought the trenches of WWI alone would have been sufficient to prove a revolver is perfectly capable of surviving the rigors of extreme field conditions. How many troops carried Gasser's, Nagant's, Webley's, S&W's, Modele's & MAS's, Reichsrevolver's (sp ?) and others I've probably never heard of?

Plus, I think internet torture tests make for some okay entertainment, but are pretty meaningless otherwise. Unless someone is willing to provide a sample of at least a few hundred identical guns, and control the conditions for all the tests, all they tell you is how that one, single gun performed in that one, single test.
