I was thinking of something while I was watching you, My guitar students used to say I made it look easy. I told them the longer you do it the easier it becomes, but it's never truly easy, you always have to think about what you're doing. That's where the challenge comes from, but it's also where the fun is. Well done.

I had one of these in even worse mechanical shape. Sold to someone in USA as a parts/wall hanger. When it arrived at the destination, the box had been carefully opened with a razor knife and the pistol stolen. Made an error in shipping insurance and it ended up costing me money to sell the gun. I will never make that mistake again.

@STEVEN-STEELE 7 ай бұрын

Yeah it reminded me of when you hit the end of a hollow tube. It scared me when I realized he fired the pistol the first time with the other charged cylinders uncapped. Most chain fires start from the nipple end, not the ball end. It's why you make damn sure your caps are secure. I read that was a design problem with this particular revolver. As the nipples were close to 90 degrees in relation to the cylinder. In firing the nipples that were towards the ground could it not given a nice squeeze when capping. Could fall off with the recoil jerking the pistol upward. Needless to say he did indeed use his karma for the year. Very interesting design. If memory serves me right. Henry or Winchester bought the design off of this pistols maker. The toggle link was improved and used in the lever action rifle.

Very unusual design that I think would be a bear to deal with under duress. When you fired it was it only the caps or did you charge the weapon with powder and ball? If only the caps then those are some smoky caps, I am not a black powder shooter so I have zero experience with it.
