Ja, waaorm zeg ik nu in dit geval?!? Een revolver heeft een trommel. Een pistool kan ook met zwartkruit vuren, en heeft dan een silex- of percussiesysteem dat voor de ontsteking zorgt. Het zwartkruitpistool is ouder dan de zwartkruitrevolver. |

| Grading comment Fijn, een kenner. Ik ga voor zwartkruidpistool in dit geval want ik zit in mijn vertaling in het Wilde Westen rond 1850. Heel erg bedankt!
