This video delves into the history and mechanics of the Springfield Arms Double Trigger Navy Revolver. Produced for a brief period in 1850-1851, these revolvers were designed by James Warner in an attempt to circumvent Colt's patents. The unique feature highlighted is the double-trigger system, where the front trigger rotates and locks the cylinder, and the rear trigger fires the weapon. Unfortunately, this innovation did not prevent patent infringement lawsuits, leading to the company's demise after a limited production run of approximately 125 units. The description also mentions various calibers (.28, .31, .36) and barrel lengths offered, as well as a safety notch.
