Video: Firing the World’s Largest Revolver

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. This massive 99-pound replica of a Remington 1859 is about four feet long and over 15 inches tall. The revolver accepts six custom 28mm rounds, each weighing just under five ounces. We’re not sure how accurate it is, but it certainly resembles an artillery piece more than a sixshooter.

The gun was designed and built by Polish gunsmith Ryszard Tobys, who in 2013 managed to get the gun recognized by Guinness World Records as the largest revolver in the world. You can watch it being fired in the video below.
