Looking at this gun, the person on the wrong end of the barrel wouldn't know this, so, yes, "impressive" in appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bullet shown appears to be the normal 38 centrefire commonly available everywhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lust Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Single shot. There is no slide. You can see it’s just one piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect there may be something similar to "a bolt" or, the mechanism on the back of the grip may slide down, allowing a round to be chambered. Then, it could be just a simple hammer with a firing pin. The trigger mechanism is interesting. It appears fixed to the trigger guard. An interesting firearm.
