From a balancing standpoint, the HC as it is now having 6 instead of 8 rounds would have been a bit... undesirable. A revolver would be a great idea, and making it more powerful than the current HC would be a must.

We'd have 15 weak-ish 9mm rounds, 8 middle-strength HC rounds, and 6 omg-so-OP revolver rounds.

For the sake of this example, the 9mm has 30 damage, the Handcannon has 110, so must the Revolver have 190 damage?

I'm not sure what else has damage in the 190 range, but i'm sure that this would be enough to make it a viable solution to life's problems :p

Turning the sharp shooter into a cowboy? Well I guess the other side of the spectrum is to turn him into a sniper, so it's not all bad.

I wouldn't actually mind a slow shooting revolver with big recoil, reload either like the shotgun (can stop and shoot if need be) or not. Having large damage would mean small amount of ammo.

British cowboys anyone??

A .600 Nitro Express revolver would have been shiete?
Yes, that gun look ridiculous.
I would rather throw bricks than use it.

Nothing against a Revolver in general though. Dunno what perk it should be in though.
