==== Revolver action ==== {{main|Revolver}} [[file:Taurus-Rossi Circuit Judge.jpg|thumb|Circuit Judge revolver mechanism carbine]] While some early [[long gun]]s were made using the [[revolver]] mechanism popular in handguns, these did not have longevity. Even though the revolver mechanism was fine for pistols, it posed a problem with long guns: without special sealing details, the cylinder produces a gas discharge close to the face when the weapon is fired from the shoulder, as was the common approach with rifles.
