A man in Poland has built the world's largest working revolver, according to Guinness World Record. The weapon, a Remington model 1859, was built by Ryszard Tobys, of Piotrowo Drugie, west-central Poland. It took Mr Tobys around 2,500 hours to construct, since most of the parts had to be built by hand. The revolver, whose chamber holds six 2099 grains round bullets, shoots with great accuracy at a range of up to 55 yards.

It's a 1858 NMA . . . and it's a normal size revolver . . they are just itty bitty people. :-)

Aren't you glad you aren't casting and buying the powder for that?

Pretty neat and well done, but things like these always leave me asking "why?"

Someone yelled it needs a holster and 50 steers rolled over and died!
