MEMES

Ain't you never heard of a Dardick? Three round cylinder with a 10 round magazine up the butt. As the cylinder rotated it would bring one under the hammer, the one that was just fired would fall out the ejection port at 4:00, and the empty hole at 4:00 would move over to 8:00, and as it crossed 6:00 it would pick up a new round from the magazine.



They were called trounds, because they were triangular shape instead of round.

I remember readng about this when I was a kid.

"Reliability Safety Versatility" They forgot one: Ugly
He must have been "inspired" by the Nambu.

From a Wikipedia article, referencing Mechanix Illustrated in 1957:

"The Dardick revolvers proved to be a commercial failure, despite being, in the words of one reviewer, "as versatile as a six-armed monkey"

The Forsythe book DOGS OF WAR. The African mercenaries were armed with MP40s and Dardicks.


That's the only time I remember reading about them in fiction.
 
Folks, relatively new member. Did my introduction and posted (and received) information on a revolver. Since the, the meme thread has caught my interest. First time through, saw a meme that I thought I copied to my meme folder. Well, I don't guess it copied. Been through all 120 pages and can't find it. Perhaps one of y'all can assist.

It was a bathroom sink with a portion cut out (guess for men's relief). The figure standing in front of the sink was "kind of" futuristic. Can't recall 100% but I think it was an attachment. Pointing me to the page number would be fantastic.

In return, I've got many to share. Thanks in advance, Tinyman
