I was watching a documentary on the Wild West and they were talking about Revolvers.
Formerly revolvers had to be loaded with gunpowder then a bullet was placed in the chamber. What I want to know is when that was no longer needed and the bullets could be loaded in without gunpowder.
If’s its confusing i’ll add details.

I think the term you are looking for is ‘metallic cartridge’ where a brass case containing the gunpowder, lead ball, and primer is inserted right into the chamber of the gun.

The others are right, the first one of those was Smith and Wesson firing .22 rimfire cartridges, and there were some exotic ‘pinfire’ cases a while back too.

But the pinfires weren’t very popular, and the .22 was pretty weak, and a lot of the very first designs were pretty wierd (like the volcanic pistol)

The metallic cartridge in a serious full sized ‘normal’ revolver really only caught on a little bit after the Civil war.

The ‘classic’ cowboy gun is the 1873 Colt Single Action Revolver, aka the Peacemaker aka Colt 45, and it is named for it’s year of invention.

I was just talking to someone about weapons and I mentioned the revolvers used in Planet Terror. I’m not sure what sort of revolver they are (the ones used by the Sheriff and his deputies) so can anyone tell me?

On top of that, what was the most commonly used revolver in the Wild west?
I think it was a double action colt but I’m not entirely sure

The types the Sheriff and his deputies use are Colt Pythons and Ruger Security Six. There was also Smith & Wesson revolvers.

**200K views for this piece of video??? hahahahah thank you, i guess**

this gun is alright, nothing special. good for under 50$, but if you have the $ for gas, by all means, get a gas powered gun. these things are DEFINITELY NOT for battles / skirmishes. its mainly just to mess around with. yes, i know my statistics fail, so bear with me.

if you’re in europe, i doubt you can get these. sorry -_-
any other questions should be answered by replies in the comments, i guess.

I want to get a revolver but don’t know a whole lot about them. What are some quality revolvers?

Pre-80’s Smith & Wessons are great. They have had some problems recently, but still make pretty good products. Ruger LCR’s are good. The old Colt Pythons (out of production) are evidently some of the best revolvers ever made.

Why do so many people want only pistols and not revolvers
especially when it comes to defense and carrying?

Did not anyone ever hear of speed loaders for revolvers that make loading a revolver almost as fast as changing a mag in a pistol?

Pistols usually have more than twice the rounds as a revolver.

If you can manage the recoil, you will love it. Weighing only 11.4 oz with its titanium cylinder and scandium frame, the little S&W Model 360 M&P is a joy to carry on a daily basis. Both officers and civilian “sheepdogs” give glowing reports on how comfortable the gun is to tote around. In my “Mobility vs Firepower” philosophy vids (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z50PFup95F8), the 360 personifies the option of Mobility and the attendant security of always having something to answer a lethal force encounter. But as with all lightweight full-size caliber guns, there are several pricetags for this portability and comfort in carry. First off, it’s downright expensive… about double the price of similar lightweight revolvers like Taurus offerings. Secondly, its recoil is stout especially with .357 Magnum or .38 Special +P loads. Get ready to man up shooting this gun… it is not pleasant. But with some practice and good technique it is manageable and this is a gun designed for carry and not plinking. Thirdly, this little revolver has very limited firepower at just five rounds. Just about every semi-auto option will beat that and they will offer greater slimness in carry (as shown). You’ll have to take some speed loaders with you and even then you better make your shots count. Understand these limitations, train for them, and you find the 360 to be an outstanding backup piece or primary lightweight carry option. With its super quality fit and finish, high viz fiber optic sights (on this model, Tritium dot available), good grips and ergonomics, a smooth trigger pull (single action fire capable as well), ability to fire within large pockets, and adequate accuracy, the Model 360 M&P remains a smart choice in a 24/7 carry gun. /////////////Nutnfancy Likeability Scale: 8 of 10

I always wanted a silenced revolver since I heard all about how they’re “impossible” to make. Well, not if you use an old-as-dirt design that seals the cylinder gap.

I GIVE YOU… a silenced revolver. Naysayers, pay up.

To those interested in tech specs, here you are:

HotShot ammo, running a 98gr bullet at 900FPS or so

Mike from www.tornado-technologies.com threaded the barrel (it was $75)

The silencer is a Yankee Hill Machine (YHM) Cobra 9mm with a Nielsen device (though the Nielsen device isn’t needed, I use this on my Glock 17 and P38 as well)

The silencer is registered per the 1934 NFA and complies with applicable state laws.

As an owner of a spring airsoft pistol I understand that I’m required to recock the pistol after every shot.

Are spring airsoft revolvers the same, or are they "semi auto" in the fact that they can be continuously shot over and over without having to be recocked everytime (because of the nature of a revolver)?

Also, are there moon clips available for airsoft revolvers to make reloading easier?

Yea… you simply need to pull the hammer back (that’s the way it was with mine anyway…)
Really though… they aren’t worth it.
Mine came with a moon clip (one of those cheap ones… with a crap load of accessories, to make it look better)… but other than that… I haven’t seen them.
things may have changed though… I had mine like three years ago.
