Colt Revolver Rifle

Besides revolver pistols, Colt made several models of revolver rifles.  Like the pistols, when they were fired, some flash and gases came out the end of the cylinder.  However with the rifles, the users arm was next to the cylinder.  Talk about hot flashes!

You can find a new Colt Revolving rifle from Dixie gun works, www.dixiegun.com. It is made by an Italian company called Palmetto. Extreme caution should be used in firing this weapons as flame and burned blackpowder will spew forth from around the cylinder when fired. DO NOT place your hands there and try not to place your hand in front of the cylinder when firing due to a possible event called a chain fire. It occurs when a chamber other than the intended chamber fires out of battery, That means that if you have your hand in front of the cylinder when one of the extra chanbers accidently goes off, then bye-bye fingers. Use only black powder, not a modern propellant and be sure to read about black powder firearms before hand.

It’s great that more people are focusing on making better environmental choices. Plus technology is making it more economical now, and that’s what people really notice. Wind energy, solar power, hybrids and zap EV’s, our choices are good. There are now electric cars being sold everyday, you just plug it into a regular power outlet. When people test drive them they say it’s far more fun to drive an EV.
