With only around 15 in existence, Jonathan gets up close with the original type of rotating revolver – the manually rotating carbine revolver.
Made nearly a century prior to the development and popularisation of self-rotating systems by Elisha Collier, Artemis Wheeler, and then Samuel Colt, this is a rare example of an 8-shot revolver from circa 1597.
Get up close with Jonathan Ferguson to see this beautifully decorated sporting gun and how it functions.
