Adams Revolver (British Army Mark III, Model of 1878) The MkIII was a solid frame pistol with six chambers, in .450 calibre, it was the culmination of a number of improvements over previous models with a more efficient extractor and a better loading gate. The .450 brass cartridge replaced the separate cartridges and percussion caps of the earlier Adams Model of 1866.
Small Arms of the Civil War
The Starr Arms Company of Yonkers, New York made their Starr Army revolver in both double and single action models. With a single action, the soldier had to manually cock the hammer each time. Double action arms automatically turn the cylinder, cock and release the hammer when the trigger is pulled. Double action revolvers were more advanced, more expensive, and more rare than single action arms (Photograph by Charles G. Worman)
