Hey, having 6 shots on tap in a handgun was the biggest leap in firearms technology when it happened in my opinion. Then the advent of the lever action once again changed the game.
Imagine you're in a gunfight and have to stop to do this whole process. This is why people carrier multiple revolvers. The invention of cartidges changed the game.
The Colt Walker was the scariest Colt to be on the receiving end of. It carried the same amount of powder as a cavalry carbine and delivered lead at a longer range with more power than any other percussion revolver at that time. It was carried as horse pistol because it weighed almost as much as a short rifle with six times the firepower. Texas Rangers in those days carried at least two of them.
Not to mention one walker revolver *shot a Mexican cannon through the barrel and blew it up* Both dangerous to the enemy and user alike 'cuz the early cylinders are poor quality metal and not heat treated properly
more energy than almost all 9 and 10mm today there are some 10mm producing 900 Joules but hey, you are holding an equivalent of 357 Magnum with a 4" barrel.
If I’m not mistaken, I believe this is the gun Clint Eastwood used in his Spaghetti Western movies back in the 60’s. I think it was specifically an 1851 colt but this is essentially the same thing. Also, probably as a reference to these movies, the infamous space cowboy Cad Bane used a fancy futuristic version of this gun as well
I remember a bit from a comedian joking about we should all just carry these or muskets. So by the time we're done reloading, Animosity is almost gone 😂

In it's day that was an advancement. Cutting edge. Then came cartridge conversions. After the Smith & Wesdon patent expired. 1873 was a game changer. We still enjoy those..both real & replica.
It is. It and the Walker Colt were the most powerful revolvers off the shelf until 1935 when Smith and Wesson came up with what is now called the Model 27 in .357 Magnum
"My very first pistol was a cap and ball Colt, shoots as fast as lightning but it loads a might slow. It loads a might slow and I soon found out, it can get you into trouble but it can't get you out.

People can shit on percussion caps allt they want, that thing is a work of art... And if you are at a range instead of a fight, the reloading is actually kinda calming and gives the shots more meaning...
For all of these I have seen and how much I have read, I never saw one being loaded before this video. I just realized that. Seen them shot, but never loaded.

Loaded it correctly too. Powder, then ball. No grease or patch needed. Colt specifically put that in the manual. Self sealing system no need for wax or patch. I have a Uberti walker clone. Theres a video on my channel of it
@marksprague1280 cavalry soldiers loaded from a flask. The guns came with standard issue powder flasks just like muskets did. If one had the time, you could make a paper cartridge and load it that way too. But loading powder straight into the cylinder from the flask is printed on the original instruction pamphlet from Colt in the box. Look it up
@@scratchguns They also used lead for water pipes in those days. Try loading directly from a flask in front of any trained range master and see what happens. I was shooting on the next bench over from an idiot who managed to set off his power horn, which was setting on the bench. It split apart, shot over my head and landed behind me. A flask would have become shrapnel.
It is called a horse pistol due to the fact that the Texas rangers required that it could kill an opponents horse from at least 100 yards during a chase. Thus it needed to be powerful, the first ones were the Walkers, which held 60 grains of powder (topped) by a round ball. The later dragoon held 50 grains.
@@user-wz9wj8eo8f Also true.. somewhere on the internet is the original requirements from Walker which is the ability to kill a horse at 100 yards..whether or not it can I don’t know.
That’s allot powder. Compared to 23 grains of blue dot of which I use in my.357. And yes blue dot is for shotguns. Very impressive revolver to say the least.
Nice pistol , you are useing correct procedures for loading but next time , before you prime , add a little patrolium jelly to the top of ball, helps lube the barrel and prevents crossfiring.
Always makes me think of Colonel John Mosby's memoirs, in which he discussed how in pretty short order all of his fellow cavalrymen figured out that the optimal load out when into riding a firefight was with the reins in your teeth, a pistol in each hand, and as many more pistols as you could get your hands on stuffed into pockets,.saddlebags, holsters and anywhere else that could be more or less easily reached while on the back of a running, wheeling horse.
Replacing the cylinder is relatively simple. You push out the shim, the base pin slides back over the fully cocked hammer and voila, the cylinder comes out.
The craftmanship and the reloading is really satisfying to watch. Feels meditative reloading that for sport shooting in a weird way. Satisfying to watch
Ahhh blackpowder. Something is so special about setting up and shooting a piece like this. This one especially, as the Walker and dragoon models both saw service on all sides during the civil war.
You can see why paper cartridges and then eventually the brass cartridge were absolute game changes to warfare. Especially the change from muzzle loading to breach certainly made things 10x easier for soldiers
Funny, thing. A cap revolver technically doesn't count as a gun as it doesn't fire rounds. So, this is a loop-hole weapon for areas where guns are banned or restricted.
Personally, I like the 1858 remingtons with the quick change cylinders. They're pretty dope. Fun guns the handles aren't that big but they're just fun.
this is something Glanton and Judge Holden used during the Blood Meridian, way too op, literally managed to wipe out an entire village 3 times and an Mexican Legion with this
👍🏻 Fascinating! First time I've seen this. Until now, I've always thought "revolvers" were all the same, firing pre-loaded cartridges as we know them today. Thanks for sharing!
Great weapon for the apocalypse, you can easily make your own caps and find lead to melt down, as well as figure out how to make black powder with a little chemistry lesson.
I heard that cowboys shot their revolvers very slowly most of the time and this proves it. They tried conserving ammo by trying to pluck one person off with one bullet. Boy does this make you think.
Interesting bit of history and information. So glad modern shooters are around!!!! That firearm Makes you think twice before shooting off all your rounds! Imagine carrying around few of these loaded for the apocalypse. Heavy limited Need 3 folks working behind you to stay loaded!! Time and attention to detail was a thing back then at a price that wanted to be bought!
Everybody picking on the reload time. I bet you when you run out of ammo and all the stores have been looted and shut down you won't be laughing no more. In a lot of ways having a black powder pistol and rifle and having knowledge of proficient use is a hole lot more valuable than you think. Sign me up my man I'm with you.
Don't forget it's actually a good idea on these types of pistols to use a grease or say something like crisco heavy white grease to cover the caps with and even the cylinders above the bullet with just a little. This helps to keep from having any sparks to accidentally ignite any caps or black powder residue in the cylinder. In other words, it's keeps the pistol from blowing off fingers and even limbs accidentally. Yes this does actually happen with these. Nice steady shooting btw.
Most cavalry during the war between the states had at least two pistols and several preloaded cylinders which could be switched out in about 20 seconds
Наука
Shooting: 2 seconds
Reloading: 2 minutes
Very true.
2 minutes seems too fast for me lmao
2 minutes? More like 20.
Hey, having 6 shots on tap in a handgun was the biggest leap in firearms technology when it happened in my opinion. Then the advent of the lever action once again changed the game.
I'd be extremely impressed if you can actually unload that revolver in 2 seconds. It's single action. That would be top tier sharpshooter type shit.
Imagine you're in a gunfight and have to stop to do this whole process.
This is why people carrier multiple revolvers. The invention of cartidges changed the game.
Paper cartridges were a thing. Still not a fast reload, but quicker than this.
It reminds me to Django, when he fights in the movie, he doesn't reload, instead he takes the revolvers from the ones he kills.
@@Pheenix9900 immediately after posting this I remembered paper cartridges 😂
You can just carry another cylinder thats what old gunslingers used to do
@@trevorjames7447 Whipping out a screwdriver to disassemble my revolver in a firefight certainly ads an element of excitement.
Yes, its a long reload but having 5 or 6 shots WITHOUT reloading was already the gamechanger back then
Absolutely right.
An upgrade over single shot muzzle loaders of the era.
Plus, people would carry multiple revolvers. 2 at minimum, maybe even more + some long range rifle.
Having this at the time of swords, knives and arrows was already a win.
Also arrows > sword>knife
"Like carrying 6 guns!"

I winder if you could just carry around 3 extra cylinders? Similar to carrying extra mags, but older.
from the reading i have done over the years some people used to during the civil war.
If you're planning to use a revolver in a fight you took multiple. Many revolvers required a screw to be taken out to change the cylinder.
That's what I do
I don't know much about specifics, but some old revolvers do allow for this
Replacing the cylinder is relatively simple. You push out the shim, the base pin slides back over the fully cocked hammer and voila, the cylinder comes out.
