Galactic Horizon 7.7x15mm Covert Carry Revolver

The Galactic Horizon 7.7x15mm Covert Carry Revolver is the smaller sibling of Galactic Horizon’s Galactic Horizon 7.7x30mm Recoil Compensating Revolver, chambered in a shorter round and designed to be carried discreetly – it was designed and developed to fire the shorter 15mm rounds in a small, reliable package that could be wielded with ease in tense, unexpected scenarios that may arise.

About the Galactic Horizon 7.7x15mm Covert Carry Revolver

The Galactic Horizon 7.7x15mm Covert Carry Revolver is quite simply a downscaled and simplified version of the company’s first revolver, designed to be the perfect pocket-revolver that could reliably spew lead at a moment’s notice.

Appearance

The Galactic Horizon 7.7x15mm Covert Carry Revolver is a rather self-explanatory little revolver with a short barrel and shrouded hammer that took clear inspiration from the company’s first revolver – it feeds from the bottom of the cylinder rather than the top like most revolvers and has tritium-lit sights, the enclosed section above the barrel houses a laser pointer that is kept charged through the magnetic surface midway along the top of the weapon.

Though it is classed as a “hammerless” revolver it obviously still has a hammer though this one is a lot lower profile and hidden beneath a rounded housing to ensure the hammer does not get caught on clothing or fur as it is drawn and fired.

Discharge Information

Basic information about how the gun reacts each time you fire this weapon.

  • Muzzle Flash: A cone of flame out the end of the barrel with each round fired.
  • Retort: A loud bang not followed up by a supersonic crack.
  • Effective Range: 650meters/710yards
  • Rate of Fire: As fast as the shooter can squeeze the surprisingly light trigger.
  • Recoil: Light, easy to control.

Ammunition

The most basic information about what ammunition this weapon uses.

Weapon Mechanisms

Information about how the weapon functions.

  • Firing Mechanism: Double action revolver, meaning that each squeeze of the trigger cocks back the hammer, spins the cylinder one space and fires a round - the cylinder creates a gas-tight seal with the back end of the barrel.
  • Loading: An ambidextrous cylinder release paddle situated above the trigger on either side can be depressed to allow the barrel and cylinder to swing downwards on a hinge, as it breaks open a spring-loaded ejector pushes out empty shells before resetting to make way for new ammunition to be loaded in – if opened slowly the shells are pushed most of the way out though not ejected, allowing the user to check the cylinder without ejecting unused ammunition.
  • Mode Selector: N/A
  • Firing Modes: Semi-automatic
  • Safety Mechanism: This particular gun features a grip-safety, a small tab on the back of the back of the weapon’s grip that allows It to fire when depressed, it is slightly curved and shaped in such a way that gripping it as one would normally grip a handgun disengages it for as long as it is depressed.
  • Weapon Sight: Two tritium-lit prongs at the rear of the gun are lined up with a single tritium-lit post at the end of the barrel, depressing the grip safety activates the laser pointer so long as it is charged.
  • Attachment Hard Points: N/A

Other

A polychromatic laser sight is built into the weapon’s frame above the barrel, it makes use of a magnetic charging cable that comes with a few outlet adapters – it can run for 1000 hours on a full charge and only activates as long as the grip safety is depressed.

A lot of this weapon’s internals are forged from anodized Skusten for improved reliability and longevity of the firearm, this revolver should last the buyer a lifetime if not outlasting them entirely - the underside of the grip even has a metal butt-plate capable of breaking cinder blocks with a single swing.
