>>61470613I dearly love all the weird attempts to get around the Colt bore-through patent.
>>61473777Those are cool, but was that the point of the Walch revolver? It's a superposed charge system for getting even more shots out of the gun, those were not uncommon back then, LePage in France was making pepperboxes like that even earlier.
>>61475870Well, it falls into the problem period and it's using individual cylinder strikers to set off the rounds despite having two hammers, so I'd say it's a pretty good chance.
>>61477615>individual cylinder strikers??? It's a muzzleloader with superposed charges. It takes percussion caps. The hammers strike the caps directly.
>>61464564What am I looking at?
