This video focuses on the Allen & Wheelock Lipfire Navy Revolver, a unique firearm that emerged during the transition to cartridge revolvers. Instead of adhering to the Rollin White patent, Allen & Wheelock developed their own lipfire ammunition system, similar to rimfire. The description highlights their legal strategy to delay infringement lawsuits, ultimately converting to percussion revolvers after an injunction. The specific model discussed is a .36 caliber "Navy" version, which has since been modified to accept both lipfire and rimfire rounds.
