Revolvers

As mentioned in the previous sub-page, revolvers occupy their own subcategory of handguns.

"B-600"

The first (and largest) revolver added in Update #79 was a fictional design known as the "B-600", chambered in a proprietary ".600 Magnum Bolt" cartridge. It is based on a design called the "M500", created by 3D artist Axel Kraefft, albeit scaled up to its new, larger cartridge, and given a different finish.

 ==Chiappa Rhino==
 Update #39 added the [[Chiappa Rhino]] to the game's arsenal; rather than simply choosing one version, ''H3'' made the rather impressive choice of adding all of them - the 20DS, the 40DS, the 50DS, and the 60DS.

+Among the numerous revolvers added in Update #79 was a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] with a [[Colt 1851 Navy (Richards-Mason Conversion)|Richards-Mason cartridge conversion]].

+==Colt Python==
+The 1st alpha build of Update #70 brought along another much-requested addition, a [[Colt Python]], with wooden grips, an 8-inch barrel, and a nickel finish.
+The "Meat Fortress" ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' crossover event added a replica of that game's Spy's Revolver, a stylized Python with pearl grips, a 6-inch barrel, and a deep-blued (i.e. nearly black) finish. A variation thereof was added in Update #86, under the name "Le Petite Liaison"; Le Petite Liaison features a nickel finish, a shortened barrel (roughly 4"), no sights, an integrated laser, and a bobbed, shrouded hammer.

+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Left.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The revolver's other side. Note that, for some reason, the grip medallion features a [[Ruger]]-esque logo, despite the fact that they're not the manufacturers in reality or in-game.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Open.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Taking a close look at the revolver's cylinder and crane. The Revolver was one of the more onerous weapons to adapt for VR, as its only original moving part was its cylinder; this required a great deal of model alteration to make the crane actually swing out properly.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Barrel.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The barrel also had to be altered (the rear end's hole being just barely visible at full size), as it wasn't properly lined up with the cylinder. Which is, for those unaware, a ''bit'' of a problem.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Ejector.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The revolver's star extractor had to be cut out of the cylinder, with the ejector rod altered to be a separate part...]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Cocking.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and, of course, the hammer and trigger had to be made movable (the latter presumably having a ''spectacularly'' crisp, clean pull, if the the distance it can physically move is any indication). Quite a task, indeed.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Loading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading the revolver; its proprietary ".366 Ultra Magnum" round hadn't been implemented in this build, so it used .44 Magnum as a placeholder.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Aligning.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the weapon, lining up the thin front post in the center of the rear notch. This isn't actually how you're supposed to aim the revolver, however...]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Aiming.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...this is. One of the features of the original model that wasn't changed was the unalignable set of sights (lead developer Anton Hand believing that it'd alter the weapon's distinctive silhouette), so lining up the sights properly consists of centering the base of the front sight in the rear notch, rather than the front sight itself.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Pulling.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pulling back the trigger, with the hammer and cylinder slowly coming into line.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Firing.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Once it all lines up, the hammer slips off the sear, and the Engie-Sosig loses his head.]]

+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Speedloader.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Upon its release it got speedloaders, in line with how the weapon is used in ''TF2''. 6 rounds go in at once...]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Ejection.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and then come right back out, sans bullets. The long, thin profile of the .366 Ultra Magnum round is visible here, somewhat reminiscent of the .357 Maximum.]]
+[[File:H3VR TF2 Revolver Suppressor.jpg|thumb|none|600px|It should also be noted that the Revolver is one of ''H3'''s few revolvers that allows for the attachment of suppressors; its justification is largely simply the inherently cartoonish and nonsensical nature of ''TF2'' as a whole, though lore-wise it's probably due to Australium or something. This particular can is designed specficially for it (though others will work as well), another one of the set added back in Update #83.]]
+==="Le Petite Liaison"===
+[[File:H3VR LPL Right.jpg|thumb|none|600px|And hey, while we're making the thing bigger, why don't we make it smaller as well?]]

+[[File:H3VR LPL Aiming.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...which is convenient, especially since it's the only form of sight that the gun has.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Speedloader.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Examining a specially-set-up speedloader (since manual loading of these was another feature brought along by Update #86); aside from 3 standard FMJs, there's one of each of the concurrently-added special .366 ammo types. The blue needle-pointed one is a Riposte, the short gray one with a yellow tip is a Salut, and the purple semi-wadcutter is a Debuff.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Loading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading in this cocktail of ammunition...]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Ineffective.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and then getting teleported somewhere else entirely. No, this is (thankfully, yet somewhat disappointingly) not the effect of any of the special rounds; rather, it's simply a stylistic choice, and definitely has nothing to do with a cursor that found its way into the originally-planned gameplay recording. The round at work here is a Riposte; in spite of the impressive visual effects, the practical effect on target here is next to nothing, with the Sosig in focus not even getting knocked down by this shot - though the Liaison's lower muzzle velocity (and correspondingly lower damage) compared to the standard Revolver probably doesn't help in this regard.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Riposte.jpg|thumb|none|600px|However, the primary factor in this general unhelpfulness is that that's not even what the Riposte round is meant for; it's actually an anti-materiel round, with each shot disabling buildings in a small radius for a few seconds - enough time to either sneak by or go in for a more permanent shutoff with the also-added-in-this-update Electro-Sapper.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Ejecting.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dumping out a few more spent Riposte rounds that somehow found their way in there; the four ammunition types differ only in their projectiles from a visual standpoint, with their cases being identical. And yes, the Petite Liaison can take suppressors too; this is one of two "generic" ''TF2''-styled suppressors added in Update #83, with a fair amount of visual influence from the Soviet-era PBS-1.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Salut.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Salut round is a less-lethal flashbang round with a small blast radius - again, great for getting close to enemies, not for actually directly killing them.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Firing.jpg|thumb|none|600px|And, last but certainly not least in any way except muzzle velocity, there's the Debuff. With a muzzle velocity on par with the opening pitch at a third-grade teeball game, and an arc like the rainbow that it forms the untouchable bottom caste of, the Debuff's debuffs seem to make it all but entirely worthless.]]
+[[File:H3VR LPL Debuffing.jpg|thumb|none|600px|However, to stop there would be to ignore the upside of the story; the Debuff round (as the name would imply) removes any buffs on a target, up to and including the otherwise-unbreakable Übercharge effect from the now-backpackless Medigun (which is green here, since the player lacks a "team" by default in the Proving Grounds). A powerful, if situational, tool of the trade.]]
 ==Colt Single Action Army==
-Update #42 made the [[Colt SAA]] available for use in-game, specifically the 5.5" barreled model; this was the first single-action revolver added to H3. Of note is that the weapon will fire if it is dropped on the hammer, provided that the hammer is uncocked and resting on a loaded chamber. This interesting, realistic touch is a trait shared by the other single-action revolvers added to the game later, including the [[Reichsrevolver M1879]] and the [[Nagant M1895]].

This interesting, realistic touch is a trait shared by some of the other single-action revolvers added to the game later, for example the [[Reichsrevolver M1879]]; Update #79 further expanded upon this by limiting it to the older single-actions, with more modern revolvers (such as the [[Freedom Arms Model 83|Model 83 below]]) featuring transfer-bar safeties to prevent accidental discharges.
 The SAA was actually present in the game long before Update #42, albeit not in physical form; the "Amendment 35" poster in the indoor shooting range features 2.

+==Continental Arms Ladies' Companion==
+Added in Update #79, the [[Continental Arms Ladies' Companion]] makes its media debut in ''H3''; at the time of its introduction, it held the distinction of being the game's oldest firearm (dating to the 1860s), taking that title from the earlier-added [[Remington Rolling Block]] pistol.

Additionally, the loading state consists simply of half-cocking the hammer, as the Ladies' Companion has no loading gate.]]

+==Dardick Model 1500==
+Added in Update #99's 5th alpha build as a rather belated reward for the winner of the Meatmas postcard contest back in 2016, the [[Dardick Model 1500]] magazine-fed revolver (yes, you read that right) makes its first known media appearance in ''H3VR''. Two versions are available - the standard revolver, and a version fitted with the "Switch-Hitter" carbine conversion kit (a factory option); both chamber the .38 Tround cartridge, a round understandably used by nothing else in the game.
+[[File:Dardick 1500.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Dardick Model 1500 - .38 Tround]]

+[[File:H3VR Dardick Chambering.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Taking a close look at the side of the Dardick shows off the markings on the barrel, and the large screw on the rear of the frame that (on the real weapon, at least) allows the firing pin to be swapped between centerfire and rimfire modes (the latter of which was meant for use with .22 Tround ammo, which is really just .22 LR shoved into a Tround-shaped sleeve).

Accordingly, achieving a screenshot like this requires a quick trigger finger, and some good timing. Or just trying a bunch and picking the one that looks best.]]

+[[File:H3VR Dardick Carbine Opening.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Accordingly, the manual of arms is identical for everything that doesn't involve the stock or forend; this includes opening up the loading port cover, which is accomplished by pushing the same small gray button down.]]

+[[File:H3VR Dardick Carbine Loading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The answer, as anyone who looked at the name of the previous screenshot would know, is a stripper clip; these work with both the revolver and the carbine (in case you somehow thought they didn't), and hold 10 rounds - perfect for a gun with a 13-round magazine.]]

+[[File:H3VR Dardick Carbine Chambering.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and the other one going in the other exposed chamber, which first has to be exposed by cocking the hammer, thus rotating the previous round into the path of the hammer.

+Update #43 introduced the [[LAPD 2019 Blaster]] from ''[[Blade Runner]]'', referring to it as the "LAPD 2019 Special" (another one of its common names). It is perhaps one of the most intricate depictions of the weapon in any piece of media (and, when it was introduced, the most complex firearm in the game):
 The weapon, at its core, is a 5-shot, swing-out cylinder DAO revolver, chambered for the proprietary (and fictional) 10mm DSM (Discarding Sabot Magnetic) cartridge. This cartridge has a variety of available ammo types, including:
 *"Slugger" rounds (the weapon's default ammunition type; a hard-hitting, high-impact round),
 *Fragmentation rounds (yes, the weapon can fire grenades),
-* "Swarm" rounds (multi-projectile, shotgun-like rounds),
+*"Swarm" rounds (multi-projectile, shotgun-like rounds),
-*Tracer rounds
+*Tracer rounds,
 *"Turbo Penetrator" rounds (a high-velocity armor-piercing round that doesn't impart much energy, but can penetrate a variety of targets),
 *and highly sensitive, surface-adhering, low-velocity, motion-sensitive proximity mine rounds (while the sensitivity is nice for dealing with enemies, it also means that they can be detonated by other things, including miscellaneous nearby moving objects, other proximity mines as they fly through the air, and even simply being fired in the charged mode, meaning that their sensitivity can be either a benefit or a hazard).
@@ Line 46: / Line 176: @@
 To help slow the weapon's overheating, heat sinks (called "thermal clips" in-game) are placed into what was the [[Steyr Mannlicher Model L|Steyr Mannlicher Model SL]]'s chamber on the original prop (the bolt handle is turned to expose the heat sink, and pulled back to eject it if necessary); these have to be replaced regularly to prevent the weapon from overheating critically. As the weapon overheats, its barrel will begin to put off steam, then glow progressively brighter and brighter, while the accuracy and battery efficiency suffer; eventually, if the weapon reaches its highest heat level, its barrel will be permanently damaged, causing a significant drop in accuracy even after the weapon cools down.

-==Nagant M1985==
+==Magnum Research BFR==
-The [[Nagant Revolver#Russian Nagant M1895|Nagant M1985]] was added through Update #47. It holds 7 rounds of 7.62x38mmR Nagant ammunition, of which only it uses. Notably, it is treated as single-action only, the reasons for this being twofold: the weapon was built to use the same code set as the [[Colt SAA]] and [[Reichsrevolver M1879]], and the Nagant has a notoriously heavy trigger pull in double-action due to its unique gas-seal mechanism; while it wasn't the original intended purpose, this also allows the weapon to be effectively suppressed, a capability that is emulated in-game. This single-action behavior could also be indicative of the so-called "Private's Model" variant of the Nagant, which was in fact SAO.
+Update #77's first alpha build added an engraved, gold-decorated [[Magnum Research BFR]] in .45-70 Government, a much-requested addition.

+==Mateba Sei Unica==
+Added in Update #79, the much-requested [[Mateba Autorevolver|Mateba Sei Unica]] is available in ''H3'', chambered in .357 Magnum. Notably, the game simulates the Sei Unica's self-cocking nature, but not the reciprocation of its barrel and upper frame; the stated reasons for this are the additional coding complexity (and performance taxation) mandated by such a system, and the fact that the total cycling process takes less than one ninetieth of a second (which would make it impossible to see on most current-gen VR headsets anyways). This was changed in Update #99 Alpha 5, with the reciprocation slowed down enough to be visible in VR.

+This fictional revolver, originally designed by Anton Hand for the game ''Prodeus'', was added in Update #105 Experimental Build 3. It is a massive single-action, top-break revolver taking inspiration from the [[Webley]] line, with a "demonic" aesthetic, complete with specialty sounds and visual effects. It chambers the proprietary ".666 Chaos" round (of which it fittingly holds 6), with only one sub-type, "Infernal", being available.

The Judge can't use .45 LC or .454 Casull in-game, though this is just a limitation of the game's code rather than any sort of inadequacy on the Judge's part.]]

Being a completely new model, the .410 shells have all the new ammo-type improvements, including struck primers, blown-out crimps (which were on the old shells, to be fair), and burn marks at the end; according to their markings, Municipal Ammo uses the internal code "1755" to designate .410 slug ammo.]]
+==Webley-Fosbery==
+The [[Webley-Fosbery Automatic Revolver]] was added in the fifth alpha of Update #99.

+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Left.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Heading out to the range, and taking a nice look at the beautiful anomaly that is the Webley-Fosbery. The markings on this side read "WEBLEY FOSBERY AUTOMATIC" on the top strap, and "[British proof mark] 455 CORDITE ONLY." on the lower frame; these are correct, at least for some versions.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Right.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The right side is comparatively sparsely-marked, bearing nothing but a serial number. Which is, for the record, "3165".]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Opening.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Cracking the revolver open; note that the frame latch/release lever works backwards, starting out in the open (back up top, forward on the bottom) position, and getting pulled back at the bottom (i.e. put into the locked position) instead of pushed forward to open the frame. This'll be important later.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Loading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mashing in an era-appropriate Prideaux speedloader full of .455 Webley ammo; this appears to be the Mark II variety, with an unjacketed round-nose bullet over cordite.]]

+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Cocked.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Cocking the hammer causes this to happen; as with the [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] above, the Webley-Fosbery was incorrectly capable of double-action fire upon its introduction, causing the trigger to clip through the back of the trigger guard when the hammer was cocked.]]

+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Firing.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and missing completely. Remember the issue with the frame latch up above? Well, as luck would have it, the rear sight is mounted on that lever, so it being in the wrong position puts the rear sight down too low, and makes the gun shoot high.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Recoiling.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Hey, at least the recoil mechanism works like it's supposed to.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Ejecting.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As does the automatic extractor.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Trigger.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With the release of the update proper came a series of fixes to the Webley-Fosbery; for starters, it's now single-action-only, and the trigger stays in the trigger guard when the hammer is cocked.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Latch.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Additionally, the frame latch now works correctly, pivoting back at the top only when opened.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Irons.jpg|thumb|none|600px|This, in turn, means that the sight picture is now correct, with the full depth of the rear sight visible.]]
+[[File:H3VR Fosbery Hit.jpg|thumb|none|600px|It also means that you can actually hit things with it, which is a nice benefit.]]
 ==Webley Mk. VI==
 The [[Webley Mk VI]] has been added with the release of Update #47. It was initially chambered for the ".454 Webley" round, a mis-writing of .455 Webley; this error was later corrected. Notably, it is also the first top-break revolver in the game.

 [[File:H3VR Webley Ejecting.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Fortunately, despite the lack of a moving extractor, breaking the revolver open still produces a satisfying shower of spent casings.]]
