I'm not saying revolvers are a lousy idea, but between the weight, the cost and the fact that DMM are the first on the block with this idea (for mainstream use as opposed to rescue) I don't see people thinking of them as a must have piece of kit. Some ideas are a definate improvment on whats in use at the time, ie:tube type belay devices compared to fig 8's, that they become the defult item on your rack. Thats not going to happen with the Revolver. |
