Interesting revolver , but pricey !!!!!

The dan wesson conversion pistol talked about earlyer had different barrel inserts and cylenders , a nice boxed set .

Great pistol there. Damn shame the background on the website contrasts in such a way as to give visitors a headache trying to read the micro text.

Yup. It had an oversized cylinder (.22 inner, .38 center, and .45 outer), if I remember right. A selector switch repositioned the hammer, thus repositioning the firing pin. As I said, it was 20 years ago, so I might be wrong on the operation of the weapon.

CG , sorry dude but that is impossable !!!!
A .22 inner with a .45 outer ??????
impossible ,
reason 1) Does the .22 bullet just jump from the cylinder to the barrel ???
reason 2) a .22 sized hole is WAY smaller than a .45 sized hole . Did it just squeeze the lead from a .45 down to .22 ?? Long and thin bullet there .

Now the hammer switch i rember so it could switch from center fire to rim fire .

Impossible, but hey Zip.....wouldnt that be great to own!?

Oh hell yeah Slang !!! just dump a mixed box of ammo in it and it would sound like this " pop , BOOM , pop, pop , BOOM !!!"

"Dan Wesson" (a weapons maker, for those who may not know) made a tri-barrel revolver about 20 years ago.

Think about that bruce .45 is roughly 1/2 an inch x 2 ( i am assuming that it was a 6 shot ) =1 inch ,
.357 + .22 = .577 x 2 = 1.054 inch , plus supporting steel so the cylinder doesn't blow up when you shoot . so we are talking about a 3-4 inch piece of steel , heavy , and how the hell would you time it ( so the cylinder ligns up for all 3 calibers ) ????? Tri barrel gun with the frame to support all this , again heavy , did it have 3 different sets of sights ???? sorry but i don't think so.

Maybe that's why it wasn't a success, but not impossible. I should have asked him. :smack:
