The bundle revolver Pepperbox (England, 1840) owes its name to its resemblance to a pepper shaker when viewed from above, with the 6 barrels rotating around a fixed axis. Unlike conventional revolvers, it is a muzzle-loading weapon, meaning that the charge and primer are loaded from the front into the barrels. These visually striking weapons were very popular in England and America in the mid-19th century, but due to their high weight and lack of precision, they were only conditionally suitable for practical use. Initially developed as a flintlock weapon in the late 18th century, the percussion version (like this decorative weapon) quickly became established.

Der Bündelrevolver Pepperbox (England, 1840) verdankt seinen Namen der Ähnlichkeit
mit einem Pfefferstreuer bei Draufsicht auf die 6 Läufe, die sich um eine feste Achse
drehen. Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Revolvern handelt es sich um eine Vorderladerwaffe,
d.h. Ladung und Zündmittel werden von vorne in die Läufe geladen. Diese optisch auffälligen
Waffen waren Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts in England und Amerika sehr beliebt, durch das hohe
Gewicht und die mangelnde Präzision für den praktischen Einsatz nur bedingt geeignet. Ende
des 18. Jahrhunderts zunächst als Steinschlosswaffe entwickelt, setzte sich im Verlauf schnell
die PerkussionsausfĂĽhrung (wie diese Dekowaffe) durch.
