Difference between Colt Pocket Percussion Revolvers and Handgun

Colt Pocket Percussion Revolvers vs. Handgun

The family of Colt Pocket Percussion Revolvers evolved from the earlier commercial revolvers marketed by the Patent Arms Manufacturing Company of Paterson, N.J. The smaller versions of Colt's first revolvers are also called "Baby Patersons" by collectors and were produced first in.24 to.31 caliber, and later in.36 caliber, by means of rebating the frame and adding a "step" to the cylinder to increase diameter. A handgun is a short-barreled firearm designed to be fired with only one hand.

Cartridge (firearms)

A cartridge is a type of firearm ammunition packaging a projectile (bullet, shots or slug), a propellant substance (usually either smokeless powder or black powder) and an ignition device (primer) within a metallic, paper or plastic case that is precisely made to fit within the barrel chamber of a breechloading gun, for the practical purpose of convenient transportation and handling during shooting.
