Thanks sounds like a good idea. I had a nice S&W 357 but every time I shot it, it was like cleaning 6 semi-autos. I only did that chore once. A Glock displaced it.

i dont dunk clean firearms.and i need another barrel of toxic crap at my place like a hole in the head. i can live with the elbow grease and not wearing out all the screws on the grips and sideplates. i've heard it does a really good job though.

when they's really bad ill just dump a large bottle of hoppes in the dishwasher and toss my shooters in on the top rack. voila! clean pots, pans and shooters. my silverware smells nice too. tastes a little funny though.

We've all seen those 18 shot revolvers before and the unlimited shot rifles.

Just watch the '40's and 50's westerns. Laughing

From the looks of it, it's still a 6 shooter but there are 3 bullets coming at you.

You can't do the body armour drill with it (2 to the body and 1 to the head) you you get 1 to the body and 2 to the head.

OUCH!

Repete, I don't agree with your sixshooter theory. Just Google "Lefaucheux 18 shot" and you will see the light Smile

Sorry but the one you cite in the link is a double barreled revolver and not a tribarrelled revolver. A totaly differnt beast.
