This guide details the mechanical intricacies of Edward Lindner's improbable tube-fed, striker-fired, caseless ammo revolver proof-of-concept. It covers the multi-step cocking cycle, the rack and pinion feeding system, the automatic percussion cap magazine, and the design's inherent limitations as a non-firing model. The analysis highlights Lindner's innovative, albeit complex, approach to firearm design in the mid-19th century.

This guide details the detachment of an experimental horseshoe magazine from a Gewehr 71 rifle, as demonstrated by Ian McCollum. The process involves safely unloading the firearm and then manipulating the magazine's mounting plate. Once detached, the rifle reverts to its standard single-shot configuration. This procedure highlights the unique design of early repeating rifle magazine trials.
