What it looks like when a cap and ball revolver is fired.

Apr 3, 2018 12:18 AM

The moment the hammer strikes the percussion cap.

Power is ignited.

Round ball leaves the barrel.

Edit: here is the gif https://i.imgur.com/4VK0TNf.gifv link should work now

If you scroll down fast enough you'll get yourself an old timey gif to match the revolver

Was I the only one that assumed the first shot was a gif? I was impressed and thought it was ridiculous super slow-mo. An hour later...

You can load 'Minie' ball in wheel guns. Much more accurate, and no patch needed. Still gotta grease...

Yep, that’s why I use an oversized round ball and grease over the ball.

Not being a troll but I seen it happen to a buddy in high school,,no one got hurt but it was quite exciting

I bet that was exciting, maybe even a bit terrifying.

Watched a guy struggle for 40 mins to load a 6 shot cylinder, fired 6 times, HUGE plumes of smoke went down the firing line. Then he left.

I'm nervous around blackpowder shooters that don't know what they are doing. Air in chamber and they built a handgrenade. I'd leave first.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

40 minutes? Did he have to build the gun first?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

He was really struggling with trying to push the balls into the cylinder and measuring the powder. Oh, and I forgot, he missed all 6 shots.

My buddy has an mosin we shot it all day when he bought it only to discover in the failing light it has a 3 foot fire ball when you shoot.
