LEGO Revolver

Revolvers Across History

The revolver’s heyday ran from the 1840s to roughly the 1980s, during which it was the dominant handgun design for military, law enforcement, and civilian use worldwide. Key military revolvers include the Colt Single Action Army used in the American West and Spanish-American War, the Webley service revolver that armed British officers through both World Wars, the Nagant M1895 used by the Soviet Red Army through WW2, and the S&W Model 10 that remained standard US military issue until replaced by the M1911 in 1911.

The powerful sidearm set Desert Eagle range shows where handgun design went after revolvers, while the lego shotguns close-range weapons complete the defensive arms picture.
