ABSTRACT:
A simplified revolver handgun comprises an interacting trigger and hammer mechanism which in their normal movements cause a transfer rod to move linearly inside the extractor assembly of the cylinder, the transfer rod having on its outside surface a network of grooves which mate with an inwardly directed protrusion in the bore of the extractor assembly, the network being a repeating series of cam action sections, each section including a location for firing when said hammer and a cartridge are aligned, and a location when the hammer rests in close proximity to the cylinder but between adjacent cartridges in a nonfiring position. Other optional features include (1) placing warnings of the dangers of a handgun on the outside of the cylinder and/or the handle; (2) providing a removable hammer nose to render the handgun safe when not in use; (3) a transparent inspection shield for viewing the bases of cartridges in the cylinder; (4) a means for moving the cylinder forward against the barrel to effect a gas seal during firing; (5) a means for using explosion gases to rotate the cylinder, cock the hammer, and eject spent shells from the cylinder; and (6) a revolver with a totally enclosed cylinder.
