Are there any revolvers that use a slide?

All semiautomatics have a slide.

Sort of.
The Webley-Fosbery Automatic Revolver was a revolver that worked in semi automatic mode.

@LuckyGuy and @marinelife No, not like that, I can;t find the anime pictures right now but something like the Nerf Maverick, but real.

I would not see the point in that. The slide is there to put the next bullet in the chamber. A revolver has the drum (the revolving part) for that.

@ragingloli Trie, I think the purpose in that part on the concept ones is mainly for the hammer. Either way it does look really cool, I imagine it would just be for someone eccentric

No. You can’t have a slide and a revolving drum. It doesn’t make sense. You then have two different storing spots for ammo and since you can’t put cartridges in a revolving drum with a spring with current technology, it’s impossible to make.

From ehow -
“When the slide comes forward again, a small metal catchment catches a bullet from the magazine at the bottom of chamber and slides it forward into the breach of the gun’s barrel. Pulling the trigger lets the hammer drop forward, which strikes the firing ping. The firing pin in turn surges forward to strike the primer at the back of the cartridge. The gunpowder in the cartridge is ignited by the primer, which causes a huge expansion of gasses that force the bullet out the barrel of the gun”.
”...The gasses also cause the slide of the gun to slam backward. Another metal catchment on the slide snags the side of the cartridge that has fired and ejects the empty shell out the side of the gun via a small port. The slide also recocks the hammer of the gun. When the spring in the slide pushes it back forward, it catches another bullet and chambers it, allowing the firing process to repeat again and again. This procedure continues until the magazine of the gun is empty”.

“The revolver is opened first for loading. This may be done several ways. The goal is to expose the rear of the revolver’s cylinder, which contains many separate bullet chambers surrounding a central axis pin. One cartridge is inserted into the rear of each cylinder, typically six in all, and the cylinder is then locked back into place ahead of and above the handle.
The rear-striking hammer, which is at the back of the revolver, is raised. This is done by half pulling the trigger or cocking back the hammer with the thumb. This action turns the cylinder to align the back of the first cartridge with the barrel ahead of the cylinder and the firing pin behind the cylinder. When the trigger is pulled, the hammer falls forward, striking an internal metal aperture called a firing pin. This is a simple metal rod on a retention spring. The pin shoots forward and slams into the back of the primer of the bullet. The impact ignites the primer, which in turn ignites the powder within the brass shell. As the powder burns, it creates a huge amount of expanding gas, which forces the bullet from its seat at the top of the cartridge and propels it down the barrel of the gun”.

I guess it’s only n anime for now :(

Oh well, anyone know of the double desert eagle for The Green Hornet? I’d like a real one of those XD

Actually, I can think of one; the Nerf Maverick. You work the slide to cock the spring for each shot (single-action style) and that also indexes the cylinder.

It is very popular among the Steampunk crowd as they like to mod them out

@jerv Yeah I metioned that lol, I have mine modded, but not steampunk style or anything. I want a real version though XD

@XOIIO And that is what I get for speed-reading…

I can see three reasons why you don’t see this design.
1) It is efficient use of space to store the ammo in the grip.
2) If ammo is stored in the grip you can readily swap out clips y when one is empty. Push the release, and the clip plops out so you can slap a full one in. A revolver takes longer to reload – even with a speed loader.
3) The cylinder on a revolver will always be thicker than an slim design automatic. Look at the Ruger LCP. It is thinner than my cell phone! Very easy to conceal.

That lcp looks like a nice gun XD
