The Whitney-Beals Walking Beam Pocket Revolver, designed by Fordyce Beals in 1854, utilized a unique 'walking beam' mechanism to index the cylinder, circumventing Colt's patent. Manufactured by Eli Whitney, this percussion revolver featured a ring trigger for operation and manual hammer cocking. Variations include 6-shot and .28 caliber models, with the standard being a 7-shot .31 caliber. Beals later contributed significantly to Remington's designs.
