The first questions likely to occur to the experienced shooter contemplating adding a replica percussion revolver to his collection are "Do any of the makers of replicas turn out firearms of decent quality?" and "Would it be worth all the fiddling with measuring, loading, capping and cleaning?" Cumpston and Bates address both of these issues in sufficient depth to satisfy the reader on both issues. (Yes, there are good quality replicas to be had, and there is, indeed, a good deal to be done in preparing a percussion revolver for action and keeping it functionally clean through an extended shooting session.) Cleaning is especially an issue for those using black powder, the residues of which are copious, corrosive and hard to remove. Fortunately, there are modern alternatives that are less troublesome.Readers undetered by those considerations are provided a survey of the major designs and models of cap-and-ball revolvers, detailing the good and bad characteristics of both both the originals and their modern counterparts. Detailed information is included on black powder and alternative loads, projectile performance and ballistics.The authors wrote Amazon reviews for the book declaring it stillborn because of some proofreading issues--notably repeated misspellings of the name of the Starr revolver. In fact the book is in stock on Amazon and well worth its price, typos and all.
Mike Cumpston and Johnny Bates have taken on the task of sharing the how-tos, and what-abouts of classic 19th century arms, and they do a fine job of it.Things start off with an overview on the loading procedure followed by a quick discussion of the various historical bullet types with their positives and negatives laid out. Then the authors get to the meat and potatoes.The book is sectioned into chapters covering three historical periods to provide the reader a sense of perspective on the development of the various handguns discussed in each chapter. The history and development of each model is followed by a shooter's review of the pistol's ballistic performance, and disassembly instructions.I heartily recommend this book for anyone interested in the revolvers of the true "Old West". (That's before the Colt .45 "Peacemaker", y'all) The historical information is well presented, and the shooting reviews give the reader an excellent feel for what these pistols were capable of. The color photographs in this edition are a huge improvement over a prior version published some years ago.An excellent choice for experienced shooters and newcomers alike. You'll never watch "The Outlaw Josey Wales" or "Quigley Down Under" the same way after reading this book.
.…but I'd like more information, somehow, (the photographs are generally very good but I wouldn't mind more of them- and some diagrams as well).Lots of history and even more test firing info and gun reviews including the author's opinions on who makes the best powder to shoot with. The book is copyrighted 2014 but, some earlier reviews seem, to me, to indicate that they had publishing difficulties- a few bits in the text make me think it was written as early as 2006. No matter, still the book to own if you have any interest in the subject. It even covers the subjects of making repairs and/or improving your revolvers function.The author's gave instructions on making paper cartridges in their book "Percussion Pistols and Revolvers"- that information is repeated here and might even be expanded upon a bit.Italian gunmaker Uberti gets favorable mention in the text but their website (their name .com, no longer lists some reviewed items, still good to read just in case you're able to buy those pieces somewhere) isn't listed in resources.Cimarron Firearms is listed but their website is not, easy enough to "Google"… I'd guess most of the companies have sites that can be found that way.
This is by far the best book I have read about cap and ball revolvers. It gets a little technical at times but it is good that it does. The author also gives lists of references and order houses for parts, complete guns and components for shooting. This is a fantastic reference manual plus a great read.
I highly recommend this book. I have bought several versions. They were all good and very informative. This latest version is really nicely done with color photos. The authors clearly have extensive knowledge of cap and ball revolvers, from their mechanics to their history. They are pretty darn good shots to boot. Some of the historical data I have never seen elsewhere. I have a fairly complete library on early Colt revolvers. Yet I refer to this book often. I have over a dozen cap and ball revolvers that I shoot fairly regularly. The authors are right on in the advice they provide shooters. My experience differs a bit in that I typically shoot multiple cylinders without the need to clean each time as they suggest. However, with the cheaper reproductions this might be necessary. Its not with Uberti and Ruger revolvers. I also don't see the need to waste caps drying out oil soaked nipples: don't flood the nipples and chambers with oil in the first place.
If you are interested in black powder firearms and the history of them, then this book is for you. It gives firearm details, history how they were made, and who used them. Great book for black powder shooters.
This is a superb introduction to percussion revolvers. I learned quite a bit from every page. The photos are excellent. It even is printed on very high quality paper. As another reviewer noted, Cumpston and Bates really want the reader to learn and become proficient. It is very much worth buying and reading
