After 140 years the SAA is increasingly popular and extensively copied. Maybe LEO's will continue with the polymers but I reckon collectors and hunters will never abandon the revolvers. Same for home/self defence - reliability and ablility to accept any type of ammo without hanging up are a consideration.
On the subject of culture change, the movies appear to have changed when the US Forces switched to the Beretta 92. Prior to that the celluloid cops had small capacity handguns and could mostly shoot straight. Hollywood suddenly realized that high capacity existed and now our heroes spray bullets all over the scenery with several mag changes in every shootout.
