The Reichsrevolver M1879 and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:
Reichsrevolver M1879
Reichs-Commissions-Revolver Modell 1879, more often referred as Reichsrevolver M1879, was service revolver of the German Army until 1908 when it was replaced by Luger P08. Later this revolver was used by non-frontline troops in WW1 and even in WW2.
The Reichsrevolver is a somewhat strange weapon (including compared to other service weapons of the period, including the German contract Single Action Army). One of its features is the characteristic lever safety on the left side. While this might seem like a good idea, in practice it is somewhat disappointingly only blocking the hammer cocking.
There is also no built-in ejector; this allowed some Internet-journalists to make ridiculous claims that in order to reload the Reichsrevolier allegedly had to disassemble and knock out the shells with a cylinder rod. In reality, the ejector was a separate stick (metal on the M79 and wooden on the M83), which was worn separately on a string attached to the holster; any other on-hand item could also be used if desired. The origins of this strange idea are still obscured; most likely, it was done trivially for quicker removal from the holster or from the belt. While the rest of the revolvers used a retractable ejector for this, in this case it was probably decided to simplify the design due to this.
There were also many commercial variants produced by firms such as Dreyse. They existed in various configurations, very different from each other, including the pocket and top-break models.
