thanks!
not so much of a novelty, revolving rifles have been out for quite a long time, since the wild west cap-and-ball times. however they didn't catch on because
- if you put your hand in the forearm, you will likely get som burns
- as they didn't fire cartridges, but loose powder with a lead ball on the front, there was risk of ammunition cook-off, again right on your hand
- you would be much better with a Colt SAA.
my design was made with solving these problems in mind. i don't think i managed to do it, though.
