Prototype and/or Experimental Handgun,
a skilled gunsmith tried to combine the recoil of a pistol to revolve the
cylinder similar the famous Webley Fosbery, a combination of semi-automatic pistol
and revolver. Cal.
circa 45, 5½" barrel with pinned front sight, metal kept in the white, smooth wooden grips, gas operated rotary magazine, single- and double-action. Extremely interesting as design and construction by an
unknown, but knowledgeable craftsman. The only specimen my friends and I have
seen. THIS one is pictured in a 1930's catalog WORLD'S GUNS, an advertisement
catalog by
Golden State, page 192. The catalog is included.
