Mateba (officially MA.TE.BA. Arms, short for Macchine Termo-Balistiche) was an Italian firm manufacturing the only automatic revolver in modern production, the Model 6 Unica, designed by Emilio Ghisoni. It has now gone out of business. Other than the Webley-Fosbery, this is one of the few existing models of semi-automatic revolver. Also notable is the positioning of the barrel, with the gun firing from the bottom chamber of the cylinder rather than the top, as is almost universally the case in other revolvers, aligning the recoil more directly with the hands of the shooter and somewhat eliminating muzzle flip. The hexagonal cylinder cross-section and lack of top strap are also unusual features in modern firearms. On firing, the barrel, cylinder and upper frame recoil 1/2 of an inch, or 12.7mm, on the lower frame, which houses the grip and trigger, and cocks the hammer and rotates the cylinder.
