that would be one wild looking revolver

2018-07-16 22:21:29 UTC  

sure is

2018-07-16 22:21:54 UTC  

That stuff is rare and expensive as frig

2018-07-16 22:22:15 UTC  

If the hoodlums were using that, they were literally wasting away golden bullets

2018-07-16 22:22:52 UTC  

Though I had to snerk at "assault revolver"

2018-07-16 22:24:06 UTC  

Let me guess, proper sight or maybe even *gasp* a laser sight on it?

2018-07-16 22:24:10 UTC  

how do you even make a selective fire revolver

2018-07-16 22:24:43 UTC  

i don't think the cylinder would turn fast enough lol

2018-07-16 22:24:54 UTC  

You don't, is how

2018-07-16 22:25:03 UTC  

Either manually operated or FA only

2018-07-16 22:25:15 UTC  

and the latter only for the big boys

2018-07-16 22:25:20 UTC  

aircraft cannons and such

2018-07-16 22:26:14 UTC  

Revolvers can shoot fast, bruh

2018-07-16 22:27:50 UTC  

that's a lot of dakka

2018-07-16 22:28:05 UTC  

It is a very big revolver

2018-07-16 22:28:24 UTC  

And it is a revolver because of the high fire rate

2018-07-16 22:28:38 UTC  

Yeah, but that's externally powered

2018-07-16 22:28:57 UTC  

idk if you'd be able to make a handheld one function fast enough though

2018-07-16 22:28:58 UTC  

There isn't a guy sitting there working a very big trigger to turn the cylinder

2018-07-16 22:29:00 UTC  

At that caliber it would be too heavy to make it a gatling gun, so instead it is a gatling-esque revolver with just one barrel

2018-07-16 22:29:14 UTC  

Literally what I was saying

2018-07-16 22:29:41 UTC  

@Tohob Au contrail mein Schatz. Soviet union actually made a full-auto revolver once

2018-07-16 22:29:56 UTC  

huh, that's pretty wild

2018-07-16 22:30:01 UTC  

It's just soviet gun prototypes are not widely known to the world

2018-07-16 22:30:25 UTC  

A true handheld full-auto revolver that was fed from a belt!

2018-07-16 22:31:03 UTC  

Why tho

2018-07-16 22:31:11 UTC  

operated by gasses and in a clever twist ejected empty shells with a gas too!

2018-07-16 22:31:22 UTC  

Because an inventor could

2018-07-16 22:31:26 UTC  

No other reason

2018-07-16 22:37:51 UTC  

Oh, forgot to mention why it makes sense

2018-07-16 22:38:19 UTC  

Gatling guns and full-auto revolvers exist to have an insanely fast fire rate

2018-07-16 22:39:27 UTC  

You see, if you will use the usual rocking-back-and-forth mechanism to feed at 2000RPM speed, you will start stripping your rounds from bullets or seating the bullet deeper into the round as it is being jerked suddenly to either side

2018-07-16 22:40:03 UTC  

handheld gatling gun when?

2018-07-16 22:40:16 UTC  

In a gatling/revlover, the round is inserted into the chamber gradually while the cylinder rotates, thus reducing the lateral speed of loading

2018-07-16 22:40:54 UTC  

So now you can use the very conventional ammo for your crazy fire rate gun thingy

2018-07-16 22:41:16 UTC  

@missdanger XM556 Microgun

2018-07-16 22:41:24 UTC  

P90 sized gatling gun
