A Unique flintlock/snaphaunce revolver,
This interesting pistol is a flintlock revolver possibly dating to the 18th or early 19th century. The revolver features a six chambered cylinder which would have needed to be rotated by hand with each shot. Each chamber has a corresponding flashpan and cover to product the primed gunpowder. The cover would need to have been opened before each shot. Thought to originate from the Middle East or India, though exact origin of the pistol is unknown.
