This video delves into the fascinating Henry Nock 6-barrel flintlock, a self-priming pepperbox pistol. The presenter highlights its resemblance to Nock's more famous 7-barreled volley gun, which was designed for naval boarding. Unlike the volley gun, this pepperbox features manually rotated barrels allowing for six distinct shots before reloading. The priming mechanism and lock are noted to be remarkably similar to the Collier repeating flintlock system, with speculation that Artemis Wheeler of the United States may have developed it. The description also links to related videos on other historical firearms like the Collier, Ferguson, and Allen & Thurber pepperbox, offering viewers further context.
