A Percussion Revolver (1,000 grams, TL-4) is a six-shot revolver, with each chamber individually loaded with powder, ball, and a percussion cap. [1]
Description (Specifications)
The gun requires some time to reload and care must be taken or misfires can occur. The cylinder may alternately be detached and another, previously loaded cylinder may be put on in a short amount of time (cylinder weight: 300 grams). It fires as a revolver. [2]
History & Background (Dossier)
All these weapons require that the owner also carry gunpowder and properly sized lead balls; percussion weapons also require a supply of percussion caps. [3]
