While deer hunting in south Alabama, another hunter in camp and I both shot deer one morning. It once hit a black bear so hard that my pal, Bill Ingalls shook his head and said, “That’s the deadest got’damned bear I have ever seen.” Bill ran bear dogs for decades and had seen a lot of dead bears.

It was that concept-drilled-through cylinders to allow the use of pre-loaded cartridges-which launched the revolver into what we see as the modern design. They patented his invention and blocked Colt from building cartridge firearms for almost 20 years. After Colt fired White for daring to suggest an improvement to his revolver design, White took his idea to Smith & Wesson.
White had an idea of a “bored-through” revolver cylinder to allow the use of metallic cartridges in a handgun. A neat feature on this gun was that the trigger was hidden inside the frame until the gun was cocked.Ĭolt made a huge mistake when he dismissed an idea from one of his gunsmiths, Rollin White.
