I realize that firearm technology has been around for 4-5 centuries, but when I see all the parts that go into a relatively straightforward design like a revolver and then take into account the creativity in designing them all to work together as a system, along with accounting for manufacturability, tolerances, reliability and metallurgy, I am always amazed. To me, engineering involves many, many, many instances of inspired enlightenment and genius.

I'll admit it; I've always preferred revolvers over semi-automatics because revolvers have "fewer moving parts." But this video showed that there's A LOT more going in a revolver than meets the eye. And, it showed why good quality revolvers are so expensive.

[@PANICBLADE]

What they usually mean when they say fewer moving parts is fewer EXPOSED moving parts. In my experience, people who say that are usually not experienced gunsmiths, but experienced shooters, so they don't know as much about what's in a handgun as they do about what's on it. DA revolvers usually have a trigger, a cylinder, a latch button, a hammer, and an ejector rod: about 5 parts that, if messed with or not navigated properly, can make the gun experience failure. A typical 1911 has a trigger, a slide, a thumb safety, a grip safety, a hammer, a removable magazine, a slide release/lock and a moving barrel, which is on a swinging link and exposes itself when fired in order for the gun to eject a casing and feed a new round. The 1911 was the US standard for semi autos until the 80s, so when people are referring to semi autos as having a lot of moving parts, they're likely referring to that platform of handgun. In an emergency, safeties can sometimes trip up startled shooters, and whether or not the slide has been racked ahead of time or the round was chambered properly also caused people some issues that the revolver circumnavigated with its external simplicity. Nowadays, there are semi autos with no exposed hammers or thumb/grip safeties, as well as more reliable feeding and extraction systems, which even 1911 platforms benefit from. There are more differences internally, of course, but that's beside the point. Both are uniquely reliable platforms now, and everything depends on what your intended use is. While things not being exposed make them less likely to be subjected to the elements or mishandling, it also means that, if something does interfere with them, you have to take the gun apart to fix it. Most revolvers need at least a screw driver to get at faulty parts. Most semi autos don't need a tool at all to get to what is likely to fail. It's also important to remember that more parts = more complicated = more likely to fail is a complete fallacy that is not universally true from an engineering standpoint. Yes, you shouldn't make things unnecessarily complicated, but a well designed machine, if it has more parts, likely utilizes those parts for a more effective and reliable result. In a computer, they often have cooling fan/vent systems that prevent the computer from breaking via overheating. The computer literally wouldn't be able to function very long without it, yet it consists of additional parts. Same with guns, Smith and Wesson used to have the firing pin that ignited the primers as part of the hammer itself. This actually led to a severe number of failures, according to S&W armorers, who would constantly repair these guns. They redesigned the firing pin separately from the hammer, now housed inside the frame of the gun, and now they no longer have near as many hammer/pin involved failures they have to correct, despite using more parts in the design.

if you think about it, it's simple, the center is the hammer: raising it, you rotate the cylinder, you block it by training the chamber and barrel, and you move the trigger back into the firing position. in double action you move the opposite, the trigger raises the hammer, which does as described before. the only thing apart is the L-shaped bar which prevents the firing pin from reaching the trigger in the event of an accident. a very ingenious system of levers and pins

I watched the whole restoration but I'm still skeptical about how the barrel was able to fire a bullet?

[@martingolding4951]

Spare parts are edited into the videos

[@rusticrestorationsyt]

The barrel is still able to fire because the inside isn't as pitted as the outside of it. Even with lots of pitting barrels are still capable of firing but will just lose accuracy. As for clearing it, I actually cleared it off camera because of how much of a pain it was. I had to use a hammer and screw driver to get most of the rust out. The springs are all still in good condition because they were protected by being inside of the gun. If you look at the hammer it is very pitted everywhere except for where it was inside of the gun. The outside will always rust and pit much more than the inside.
