ABSTRACT:
A firearm, especially of a type accommodating multiple caliber cartridges. In a preferred form, a revolver incorporates an axially revolvable barrel having plural bores of different caliber. The barrel is preferably selectively detachable and reversible top for bottom. A separately mounted means is provided for shell ejection. The revolving cylinder employed is provided with cartridge receiving bores of different caliber and is reversible end for end, being provided at opposite axial extremities mutually displaced sets of teeth accommodating appropriate cylinder rotation, this depending upon the caliber then selected. Means are provided for regulating different cylinder placements for the individual cylinder bores as to each set and as to the respective bores of each set. A safety feature is included for insuring that firing can occur only when proper cylinder and barrel registration exists. An axial member accommodates cylinder rotation and placement, being suitable designed for the cylinder reversing feature.
