Don't mess with revolvers that require "moon clips" to hold or reload ammo like 9mm or .45 in the gun. Misplace that little clip and the gun is useless. If this is a carry piece, you need a foolproof system.

The S&W 625 revolver in .45 is what Jerry Meculik used to set the world record of 12 shots--including one reload--in 2.9 seconds.
I came this close to buying one off the classified here awhile back, but no other gun I own has a little widget--that if lost--makes the gun hopeless and useless. I may still buy a 625 but it will be a range gun for fun.
The 625 can still fire rounds without a moon-clip..
Ahhh, for multi caliber options why not just go all the way and get a Raging Judge with .454 Casull capability. Even if you miss the bad guy the shock wave will knock him over.

Yeah baby! Short barrel shotgun in tha house!
I've shot one loaded with .454 and it throws out a muzzle flash like a Mosin. Recoil's not bad at all though, probably owing to the fact it weighs almost 5 pounds.

Yes, I think you are talking about rimmed .45 ammo, but that ammo is harder to find than hen's teeth.

NO! A 625 cylinder is head spaced, so you can still drop a .45ACP round in and fire it without a moon clip. The moon clip is there for extraction because there is no rim on the case. If you reload .45AutoRim is no problem, No moon clips needed and use .45 colt speed loaders.
More revolvers than ever that are chambered for 'auto' do not require moon blips as Marauder says. Will work either way. Extracting empty shells is a little harder though without moon clips.
9mm is cheaper, easier to find, generally more powerful than .38 and same ammo as your other guns. 38/357 would be my second choice and is a great caliber.
