Ok this is for all the perriod weapon ethusiastes, there is historical documentation the there have been matchlock and flintlock revolvers, from pistoles to carbines and well that got ne to thinking as to makking one in that particular style wheather it be pistole or carbine rifle. I know King Louis the XIII was given a Arcubus revolver carbine. These weapons did exist, what I wana do is find resource information on tgese classic beautifull weapons anything at all preferably in link form if that ios possible, if not then you can tell me where to go.

The revolver wasn't invented until the 19th century. By that time technology had progressed to the cap (percussion cap) and ball.

go pick up a magazine called "shotgun news" (www.shotgunnews.com) i've not seen such a weapon as what you are looking for but there are quite a few sites and addresses there with information of antique guns in the magizine /// as an aside i think you have seen what is called a multibarrel weapon such as a pepper box that had several barrel that was turned by hand one shot at a time although i've been wrong in the past

Contact the National Muzzleloading Rifle Association (NMLRA) in Friendship, Indiana. I don't have their address but they have a website. They can direct you to someone who can answer your question. Heck, Friendship is so small and NMLRA is about the only thing in that town so you could probably just mail it to them at Friendship and they would get it.
