This video details the operation of the Pauly System pistols, highlighting Samuel Pauly's pioneering work on self-contained cartridges. The pistols feature a unique loading mechanism where the barrel pivots down for a percussion cartridge. Internally, they are hammer-fired, utilizing a free-floating striker retracted by a hook on the hammer, which then protrudes forward to ignite the cartridge upon trigger pull.
