Reloading would sure be slow.

At that point you would probably want to drop in a whole new cylinder...

New York reload would be pretty fast.

Forget reload! Just throw it at them when all of the bullets are gone!!! Or use it as a club...

No problem with moon clips . . . . but that would be one heck of a moon clip!

hmmm, how about loading replacement cylinders in a special magazine, with a mechanism to eject the cylinder after firing the last shot, and install the next cylinder in the magazine? :biggrinjester:

I think CLIPS would be outlawed if they held over 10 so it'd have to be two half moon clips of 10 each
those full moon hi cap clips might make it an assault revolver irresistibly drawn to evil doin's and capable of mind control or "going of" by itself

I had a dog that went off by itself, but it came back when it got hungry.

Here, according to US definitions, is a full auto machine gun revolver (it shoots 3 rounds with 1 trigger pull)

You'd have to pay the BATFE and fill out paperwork to own it.


But I'd probably invest/buy stock in a 20 round revolver factory if they limited us to 10 round magazines ... I think the market would blossom as quickly as it did for Glock's early days and stock purchases might pay off due to misinformed Hoplophobes thinking those large "clips" CAUSE something.

As soon as I read this post, I think I devised a way to shoot one round per trigger pull with a revolver like that with multiple barrels. I'd have to draw it out to be sure though.

Maybe I should hurry up and patent it $$$$$$$$!!!!

EDIT: according to the original source, you can choose which firing pin to use. My idea makes it fool proof though and no extra buttons or levers is needed.
