We offer sales for a 9 mm revolvers with impact mainly the Schhofield revolver. This revolver is the result from efforts to improve the American Model 3 so it could better serve the army. The Schofield is a fast weapon to load. The handgun is the first revolver that use cartridges to be adopted by the military in 18th century. These pistols are available with 5" or 7" barrels. A huge advantage of the design is that it allows all cartridges to be dumped out at once. By the same token, it was easy to load while all of the cylinder chambers were exposed. This was different than other revolvers at the time, which had to have each chamber loaded one at a time via a loading gate. The Schofield was far faster to load.
The latch on the Schofield 9mm revolver can be operated with one hand while on horseback and empty cases automatically ejected. Considered by many to be superior to the Colt single action when in the hand of mounted troops. It is often said that the schofield was produced way ahead of its time. They are 6 caliber revolvers with 7in ribbed barrels, with a square butt and 2 piece hard grips. While most of these revolvers were made with with case-hardened trigger guards and hammers, some had a factory nickel finish.

This was different than other revolvers at the time, which had to have each chamber loaded one at a time via a loading gate. To open a Schofield, the hammer is brought to the quarter cock position and the back sight/cylinder latch is pulled back. The action mechanism is unlocked, allowing the barrel/cylinder assembly to swing downward. As the action is opened, a star ejector raises the cartridge cases. Turn the handgun over, and the shells fall out with the aid of gravity. As the barrel assembly is in the fully open position, the extractor snaps back into position, allowing fresh cartridges to be inserted into the cylinder. Other than sale, we help you set up your schofield revolver.
