This video delves into the Sisterdale revolver, a unique and rare design from the Confederate era. Developed in Sisterdale, Texas, by Alfred Kapp and his associates, the intention was to secure a contract with the Texas government or arm themselves for the Civil War.

Of the six believed to have been manufactured, only this example, passed down through the Kapp family, is known to exist today.
