This review of the French Revolver Modèle 1892 highlights its design for cavalry use, featuring a unique swinging cylinder and gate loading mechanism. While its single-action hammer and double trigger are noted as heavy yet smooth, the firearm's low power is a significant drawback. Despite its limitations, the 1892 remained in service until 1948.

This review covers the Revolver 92 Espagnol, a Spanish-made copy of a Smith & Wesson revolver intended for French service. It highlights the familiar push-button swing-out cylinder, capacity for six rounds of 8mm French Ordinance, and its weight and dimensions. Comparisons are made to different manufacturers' hammer designs and trigger feel, noting the sights are functional but shallow.
