Is this the inspiration for Glocks? Lots of rounds but handles like a brick. :P :P :P

Seriously, is that thing for real or a Hollyweird creation? I can not see it being a real weapon but you never know.

Joseph Christopher Enouy (1802 - 1882) was a British engineer who patented a unique method of increasing a revolver's ammunition capacity.

BiographyEdit
Joseph Enouy was born in Covent Garden on the 27th of July 1802, the son of Joseph and Elizabeth Enouy. He worked as an engineer in Middlesex. He married Martha Elizabeth Davis on the 13th of February 1831 and died in Surrey on the 31st of October 1882, at the age of 80.

Enouy's patentEdit

The revolver at the Abdeen Palace Museum.

On the 14th of June 1855, Enouy took out a patent for a method of reloading revolvers. The patent describes replacing one cylinder with another in quick succession via a rotating axis containing multiple cylinders.

Enouy's patent was applied in practice several times. There exists an English transitional revolver that has a rotating wheel held on an under-barreled axis; there are eight cylinders attached to spokes on the wheel, giving a total ammunition capacity of 48 rounds. This gun was formerly part of the Vokes collection in Hampshire, England, but is now kept in the Abdeen Palace Museum in Cairo, Egypt.

This weapon of war should be banned. Too much capacity!

My God, somebody needs to ban that, no one needs high cylinder capacity revolvers. That has no use other than war and murder. No one is gonna hunt with it, and that brass handgrip coming off the barrel is so it can be stabilized during automatic fire. This is why our children are not safe. /s
