This review details the Forehand & Wadsworth Old Army Revolver, a .44 S&W Russian single-action firearm produced in limited numbers. It highlights the company's origins from Allen & Wheelock and its attempt to enter the military market. The review covers its technical specifications, unique pivoting ejector rod (copied from Webley), and its market position relative to Colt and S&W.
This video from TFBTV features Corey Wardrop examining the Allen & Thurber Pepperbox Pistol. The discussion begins with a historical overview of similar firearms, exploring their civilian rather than military applications. It defines pepperbox pistols, also known as pepperbox revolvers, and touches on their historical timeline and ignition systems. The video includes trivia, such as whether the Gatling gun is a pepperbox, and delves into the Allen & Thurber company and its founder, Ethan Allen. The presentation covers the pepperbox's advantages, disadvantages, usage, and eventual decline. Thanks are extended to Rock Island Auction Company for a matchlock pepperbox image and Ventura Munitions and BLACKHAWK! for their support.
