You might want to find out why the BP revolving carbine wasn’t real popular before buying one.
To the OP: He has a good point. I have fired the replica Remington 1858 (actually they were first introduced in 1866) revolving carbine and it sure wouldn't be my choice for any kind of hunting. Plinking, target practice is fun, but hunting, no. You have to hold it rather awkwardly to keep the blast from the cylinders from burning you during firing, not a natural thing to do while hunting. In the muzzle loading version, each cylinder has to be loaded just like the cap and ball black powder revolver it is based on.
for safety reasons when shooting BP revolvers after the ball is seated and before it is capped the remaining space in the chamber is filled with grease. most use something like crisco. i like to use bacon grease because it makes the range smell ilke cooked bacon. (i know it’s sa;ty but i clean up right afterwards so not worried. the grease prevents the the flash from the firing chamber getting into another chamber and fireing another ball. if you are holding a rifle your hand is in front of the cylinder. this is why cicil war sharpshooters quickly rejected the revolving cylinder rifle.
i did - thought they were odd - thats what appealed
