Silent 9mm Revolver-Rifle! Alfa Proj Carbine

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at IWA visiting Alfa Proj to discuss their unusual and kinda sexy suppressable revolver carbines.
According to Alfa Proj's description of this revolver:
"Reliability, resistance and simple handling of the revolver system in a long gun version. This arm offers a higher output and thanks to the precise barrel three times longer effective range compared to short guns. The revolver system provides for better promptness and readiness of the arm to fire due to primarily the automatic drop safety and double action trigger mechanism. Thus, the hunter obtains six quickly handy and reliable shots without safety restrictions for carrying. Low weight and compact size determine the carbine usage for hunting in dense forest and bush areas that require easily handled weapon under difficult environment. The ideal choice for certain situations such as shot-up game tracking in heavy terrain. Also sport shooters who enjoy charm and classical features of revolver systems will appreciate precision and revolver-identical control together with better accuracy at long range."

Maybe it's because I am an uncultured American, but I really dig the vibe at this show. "Here's a guy in a suit speaking a second language almost perfectly with a 9mm revolver with a 16.5 inch barrel. It also has a suppressor because reasons." I'm here for it.

@sluttybutt Жыл бұрын

It's also extra sad that suppressors are encouraged in most of the countries producing these firearms. The UK, for example, has them unregulated, if you can believe it. It's considered more socially considerate to shoot with a suppressor than without.

I used to have one, quite nice, the issue is that the rod is actually a connecting part for the stock if you look underneath it in the video, which means the bar is quite high up and and it makes it a bit awkward to hold you have to have quite a high grip on it, which in theory is good but it makes it awkward with the thumb grooves not lining up when that high. The other major issue was that the foregrip is quite close to the cylinder and it has scorched my sleeve previously leaving a lasting burn mark, just something to be aware of. Also to note the irons dont line up well when shouldered with your face close to the rear sight. (Also the cylinder latch retention spring inside snapped and jammed up the gun until I had to take the side plate off) otherwise it was decent quality.

I love these revolver rifles. Regular revolvers and semi auto rifles are regulated in Austria, but for some reason revolver rifles aren’t regulated even tough they essentially can fire one shot per trigger pull just like any semi auto rifle can. So they are a nice way to get semi auto functionality without using up spaces on your license (which are limited and restrict the amount of semi auto guns you can own). However it’s kinda sad that they don’t produce any rifle caliber revolver rifles and it’s especially sad that this revolver rifle doesn’t lock up like the nagant revolver to allow it to be as silent as possible when using it in combination with a suppressor.

@herbderbler1585 Жыл бұрын

As I understand it, the problem with the Nagant is that it takes special cartridges to create the seal on the front of the cylinder. If some clever engineers found a way to get a good seal using standard ammunition, I'm sure there would be a huge market for a suppressed revolver.

@herbderbler1585 Жыл бұрын

I love all my tacticool nonsense, but sometimes you just want something that's fun and different. This is definitely that. A double action revolver carbine can also serve as a useful home defense gun. It has the simple manual of arms of a revolver, but you can shoulder and aim much more effectively, and with a little work it can even be done one-handed, so disabled folks or those who aren't super gun savvy can make good use of it in an emergency. I've heard from a few people who have a Rossi Circuit Judge for just those reasons. This would fill that same niche with more afforable and/or available calibers like 9mm and 38/357.

The issue with revolver rifles had been present as far back as the U.S. Civil War, 1860-1865. Often the unburnt gunpowder charge would spray out the gap between the cylinder and breech end of barrel, so the forearm could suffer flash burns without a cover. It's why these kinds of guns didn't gain enough traction over the lever action repeater rifles (which were costly to produce and complex in maintenance/cleaning). The advantage today is having smokeless metallic cartridges instead of loose black powder+ lead balls like they used in the Civil War, so the "cook-off" phenomenon won't occur nowadays.

Revolver rifles were a bad idea but the mass production of brass cases saved the idea back because the danger was chain firing

I owned an Alfa Proj 9mm, used it a lot and Im pretty sure the guy above never shot some 20 rounds or more in one serie- because of the cylinder gap. Mind the gap ! I use a leather forearm protection from my bow Equipment

As I understand it, most european countries don't have onerous suppressor laws and shooting suppressed is just the polite and normal thing to do. Doesn't bother neighbors or wildlife. There's no good reason you can't go to the gun store and get a $100 thread on can with a simple instant background check in the US, it's crazy

I have a Circuit Judge, and I actually like it. It is a good deer hunter, and with 0000 buck 5 pellet, not bad for home defense either...AR is better but still not bad. So, revolving carbines sound good to me. Giving up a bit of function for sexy but that is okay sometimes.
