In this video, "Bloke on the Range" compares the reloading speed of a rare 7.5mm Swiss M82/29 "Abadie"-type gateloading revolver against a classic 1940s Smith & Wesson M&P revolver chambered in .38 S&W. The experiment aims to quantify just how much slower gateloading is compared to a swing-out cylinder, even with the Abadie system's automatic cylinder indexing. The host reveals that, even with its specialized mechanism, gateloading is demonstrably slower and less efficient.
