"All revolvers are pistols but not all pistols are revolvers,"
Exactly. Just as Winchester 94, Ruger Number 1, Remington 760 or a Mauser 98 are rifles.
I like this. We don't need to make it more confusing than it already is to people who want to take up our sport, or has an interest in personal security.
Well,
Some Winchester 94's are rifles,
most are carbines.
But it's not important, and Cariboujack has a great point.
