Is it a conversion from flintlock? Just going off their estimated dates, it is or they have made a mistake.
It’s a percussion 10ga revolver shotgun
Not the Colt, the elephant gun.
Lot 1154 - 1/2 Stocked Percussion Elephant Rifle
Na that looks like it was always a percussion gun to me.

Me too, which makes it later than circa 1820 at least.

That’s pretty cool still, I haven’t seen them before.
Yep it’s a first for me as well.
QLD Gun Exchange has them.
…and maybe one in 12ga? Paaalease?!
Just checked their website and they don’t even show the 410 so not sure if they do a 12g

Looks like they do everything except lever actions.

I really like that revolving 410. I have heard a lot of bad stuff about them but I saw one in action the other day and I thought it was pretty neat actually. A true cross between rifle and shotgun it had some distance to it and also a bit of spread of shot.

I already have 2 of these, but one of you should pick up this bargain!
I know it is more than what you are looking for parts wise but you could make one really good one from 2 and I am not sure what the bolt alone will cost.
I’ve already got one - in 223 though. That is cheap…
What is it? The link won’t work on my phone for some reason.
A $400 12A in Sale vic. I’m going to Traralgon tomorrow but with the fires…
