The Walch Revolver: How 5 Chambers Become 10 Shots
The Walch Revolver is a unique 19th-century firearm that achieves 10 shots from a 5-chamber cylinder using superimposed charges. Each chamber holds two loads, ignited sequentially by dual percussion nipples. Manufactured by New Haven Arms Company under Oliver Winchester, it served as a crucial cash flow between other firearm projects. Variants include the .31 caliber Pocket and .36 caliber Navy models.
