Quote:
If Newtown, Conneticut didn't make any difference, this shooting won't either. They should have settled this road rage incident like Canadians; pulled over onto the side of the road and punched each other's lights out. Good family entertainment and both of them would have learned to keep their temper in check after that. |

Just for my own understanding:
A "revolver" by definition has to have a cylinder that houses the bullets, and that cylinder rotates to bring each bullet into alignment with the barrel. So the following would be a revolver: http://www.wallpaperpimper.com/wallp...2P-800x600.jpg Is there a special name for a hand gun that carries it's bullets in a clip inside the handle, like this: http://www.motherjones.com/files/images/magazin_e.jpg That is, is there a single word that conveys the idea that the hand gun uses a bullet clip that fits inside it's handle? My understanding is that revolvers typically hold 6 bullets. Is there a "typical" number of bullets that a hand gun with a bullet clip in it's handle would carry? Would 11 or 12 be about right?

rimfire. I've also seen revolvers with 5 cartridges. One was a snubby pocket gun. Others were large boomers. Now, to tell the reading audience what a clip is.

OK, I appreciate all of the responses, but I'm not sure if you understood exactly what I was asking.
Let's say Sam walks into a gun shop with the intent of buying a hand gun that held the cartridges in a magazine which slid into the handle of the gun. Sam asks the nice man at the counter to show him what he has in the way of _________s. (fill in the blank) What would Sam ask to see if he wanted to make it clear that he was not interested in revolvers, but only handguns that held the cartridges in a magazine which fit inside the handle of the gun. If there is no actual word for that kind of a hand gun, a statement saying that there is no such dedicated word would completely answer my question as well. |

wrote: Aren't all modern hand guns "semi-automatic" in that they fire one shot each time you pull the trigger? So, I'm thinking that a revolver would also meet the definition of a "semi-automatic pistol" in that it fires one bullet each time you pull the trigger. I don't want to beat a dead horse here. If there is no word that's meant to differentiate a hand gun that has a magazine in it's handle from a "revolver", maybe just tell me there's no such word and I will accept that as a valid answer. Or, in the example provided, would Sam have to actually say: "I want a hand gun that has a magazine in it's handle; not a revolver."? A revolver can be fired in single-action or double-action. Single-action requires that the hammer be cocked first. Some single-action revolvers are not double-action (think of the wild wild west). The hammer needed to be cocked each time, thus, the practice of "fanning the hammer". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanning_(firearms) Sam still wants a double-action semi-automatic pistol. My revolver can be double-action - without cocking the hammer Beating a dead horse, you only end up with a dead horse with bruises. |

My understanding is that revolvers typically hold 6 bullets. Is there a "typical" number of bullets that a hand gun with a bullet clip in it's handle would carry? Would 11 or 12 be about right? There are some revolvers that have more than 6 cartridges and some large caliber revolvers that I seem to recall having 5 in the cylinder. Please use the correct terminology, it's a "magazine" not a "clip". ^_^ Colt .38 from the 1970's held only 5 cartridge rounds. And please use "cartridge(s)" (also called a round or a shell) instead of "bullets". The bullet is the thingy that pokes the holes, sent forth by the propellant. I thought "Bullet" was a movie? o_O Do you shoot Bullits? |

Let's say Sam walks into a gun shop with the intent of buying a hand gun that held the cartridges in a magazine which slid into the handle of the gun. Sam asks the nice man at the counter to show him what he has in the way of _________s. (fill in the blank) Semi-automatics (auto-loaders)? Pistol? Pistol isn't quite the right word. A "pistol" is a gun with the chamber being an integral part of the barrel. A single-shot handgun or a lever action would also be a "pistol". A revolver would not. It would tell the guy behind the counter what you wanted, though. Semi-automatic is probably a more common word. What would Sam ask to see if he wanted to make it clear that he was not interested in revolvers, but only handguns that held the cartridges in a magazine which fit inside the handle of the gun. If there is no actual word for that kind of a hand gun, a statement saying that there is no such dedicated word would completely answer my question as well. "Semi-auto" is probably the most common term used. |
