Looks like the piston kept the gasses inside the cartridge case, so in theory it would work in a revolver

I was looking at that. Very interesting and unique design. Would like to see some stats on performance in the field. A friend of mine who was a SEAL during that time period said that his fav was the S&W Hush Puppy.

Sounds like it didn't work that great.
