This video tests the long-term reliability of a loaded black powder revolver. An 1851 Navy revolver was loaded with 18 grains of Goex FFFg and a .375 round ball, with lube over the ball instead of a felt wad. After one week, all five chambers fired perfectly, demonstrating that dry storage maintains reliability indefinitely. A tip for extra waterproofing involves sealing the cap-to-nipple with clear nail polish.
