Misc Mateba Unica 6

One of the rare Semi automatic revolvers, this is not a double action revolver. The first triggerpull is a normal double action pull, it cocks the hammer, and then releases it, firing the gun. Upon firing the upper part of the frame recoils. This movement then cocks the hammer, and automatically rotates the cylinder. When the upper frame has completely recoiled, it is pushed forward again by a spring. When it has returned to its forward position the gun is ready to fire another shot, only this time a light pull in Single-Action mode, as the hammer is already cocked and the cylinder rotated.

They are also quite a pain to take apart, one must hold the weapon at a canted position so several small part don't come out.

While it maybe to large to be considered a concealed weapon it is a good home defense gun. Chambered in a powerful cartridge.

Unfortunately not many of these weapons are in circulation and are quite expensive. While they may not have been big in 1997 they seem to be catching on. Too little too late though.
