I remember seeing a picture of this once somewhere, but can't remember anything else about it. You fired all the rounds in one cylinder, cranked another into position, and continued firing.
Looks a little bulky for concealed carry, but it sure is purty.
Um, it's awesome? And would go great with a steampunk outfit...
Looks like a way cool movie prop. Still want one - pintle mounted on my steam powered Jeep.
The hammer looks like it came off an old Ethan Allen Pepperbox, but the barrel looks like it was from a Colt. Possible it was a Patent Model from the Civil War Era for use aboard ships to repel boarders?
I hate to do it, but...
"Yo dawg, I heard you liked revolvers, so I revolvered your revolver for you."
whoa.
Just one of many weird ways they tried to increase the number of rounds on board back before box magazines and self-contained metallic cartridges. No weirder than some of those Belgian monstrosities with the over/under barrels and two rows of chambers in the cylinder.
Unless there is something very non-obvious about that gun then it can only fire a very low pressure round. The barrel is held in place with the brass colored "pillar" which gives it a huge lever arm to the barrel. When the gun fires the barrel would have a strong tendency break that support. And it looks like there is a big crack at the bottom already.
It looks to me like it is a non functioning prototype...
Looks like a version of a Puckle Gun with multiple cylinders on a turntable.
Have to be post-mounted, be damned heavy.
It's the answer to the question of how to complete in USPSA open class with a revolver. 8*6=48, plenty of rounds for a stage.
But can you make power factor? And unload and show clear would suck.
WV Dualie, more like Hexie.
