This video delves into the fascinating Butterfield Army Revolver, patented in 1855. It's a 5-shot, .41 caliber percussion revolver distinguished by its automatic pellet primer feed system, a significant innovation for its time that eliminated manual capping. The description highlights its brass frame, 7.5-inch barrel, and unusual grip. A contract for 2300 units for the Ira Harris Guards was cut short, with only 640 produced, making these secondary military pistols quite rare today. The video features expert analysis from Forgotten Weapons.
