A firing mechanism for a firearm includes a frame, a barrel attached to the frame, a cylinder attached to the frame and including a chamber that is alignable with the barrel, and a latch pin in direct contact with the cylinder that moves forward to force the cylinder forward to directly contact the chamber with the barrel when a trigger is pulled.

A Ruger revolver has a cylinder release button for loading/unloading that is stiff. It is difficult to push into the frame to release the cylinder. A spring force keeps the cylinder locking rod pushed rearward into a locking hole. When the cylinder release button is pushed into the frame, a short lever arm moves the release arm pin forward to overcome the spring bias force rearward. The present invention attaches to the face of the release button to extend the lever arm from the fulcrum of the cylinder release rod. A bolt and/or glue can attach the extension lever arm to the face of the cylinder release face. A factory model could provide a one piece cylinder release rod with an extended rearward projecting face.

The invention relates to an extractor for a revolver with a drum for extracting cartridges from cartridge chambers arranged in the drum wherein the extractor rod of the extractor is arranged in the axis of rotation of the drum and the extractor rod loaded by a spring cooperates with a multi-armed extractor star connected to the extractor rod, wherein the extractor star extends in the radial direction relative to the orientation of the extractor rod and the extractor star arms of the extractor star have end portions which correspond to a casing of the cartridge or a circumferential cartridge groove running around the casing of the cartridge.

A firing mechanism for a firearm includes a frame; a barrel attached to the frame and including a conical taper at a rear end of the barrel; a chamber attached to the frame and including a central bore through a center of the chamber and a conically tapered counter bore at a front end closest to the barrel; and a spring in the central bore to force the chamber backward.

A method of firing a firearm includes rotating a trigger to force a latch pin lever to move; forcing a latch pin forward by the latch pin lever to force a cylinder forward toward a barrel; sealing or substantially sealing the barrel and the cylinder; and releasing a hammer to strike a cartridge while the barrel and the cylinder are sealed.

An improved revolver is disclosed. The revolver has a hollow handle and a cartridge cylinder. The revolver includes a magazine clip, releasably insertable into an interior region of the handle, and at least two cartridge sets contained within the clip. Each cartridge clip, ordinarily cylindrical in shape and unable to be inserted into the magazine clip, is easily compressed by a user into an elliptical shape, which is an improvement designed to enable quick loading, unloading, and reloading of cartridges into the magazine clip and thereafter into the cylinder of the revolver.
