I'm not sure you can derive a valid 50% figure based on that. Seems way too high. Revolvers have been heavily used in war by US forces from about 1860 through about 1911, and supplementarily through the two World Wars and beyond, without reports in significant numbers of the particular shortcoming you suggest. Furthermore, there's their long history in US police work. It wasn't dropped from police work due to complaints about the shortcoming you specify, but rather due to sustained firepower issues which favor auto pistols.
