The Most Powerful Handgun of the Victorian World —- The .577 Webley Boxer,
Produced in limited amounts during the 1870’s, the Webley Boxer was not actually a Webley. Rather it was a design of William Tranter which Webley manufactured under license. A double action six shot revolver, its most noticeable feature was the larger than normal frame and cylinder. The reason why the revolver was so large was to accommodate its huge .577 Boxer cartridge. At the time is was considered the most powerful handgun in the world, only to be later outdone by the .600 Gilon. Very few were made and for the most part they were sold as a novelty item.
damn that thing is a beast.

The Gouery and Noel Rotorevolver,
Somewhat popular in France during the 1860’s Rotorevolvers were a strange form of turret revolver. Unlike modern revolvers the rotorevolver utilized a horizontally revolving disk with chambers machined along its edge. The disk would have had to have been removed for loading, and loaded with loose powder and bullet. The revolver had a folding trigger, with each pull of the trigger revolving the disk, making it a double action. The hammer was side mounted, with each chamber having a touchhole in which a capsule of priming compound was placed, which when struck with the hammer would discharge the round. Later models were also produced that used metallic cartridges.
Most rotorevolvers would be manufactured by a firm known as Gouery and Noel, although many small workshops and gunsmiths made their own versions as well. Unfortunately the pistols never gained popularity. The only advantage of owning one was that it had a ten round capacity, where as most revolvers of the day only had six. However, this was offset by the fact that they were expensive, overly complex, hard to shoot, and difficult to maintain.
