Could there perhaps be some relationship with Puckle's "Defence gun"?

Hello
Looking at a Hermmann Historica catalog, I found a similar revolver, but of German construction. According to the text, it is a revolver of salvos, built for a representation of a battle at sea, around 1900, a spectacle. See the text Affectionately |

Fernando K, is the barrel smoothbore, or rifled?

They only fired blanks in these events, as is written. How would rifles be of any use ?

Do you see the inside of the muzzle on these photos? The answer is NO.
I'm asking a person who ostensibly has access to the piece in question. Do you have access to this revolver? |
