REVOLVER CYLINDER CONFIGURED TO ACCOMODATE BLANKS AND METHOD FOR SIMULATING FIREARM OPERATION

摘要

A removable cylinder (30) for a revolver (1) according to the present invention includes a plurality of cartridge chambers, each appropriately sized to receive a blank cartridge therein. The cartridge chambers (38) are sealed at their distal end to prevent debris from a fired blank cartridge from entering the revolver barrel. The cylinder may further include pasages (e.g., vent ports or grooves) in communication with the cartridge chambers to vent exhaust gases released from the blank cartridges in response to revolver actuation. The revolver may further include a laser transmitter assembly (100) to project a laser beam toward a target in response to revolver actuation to simulate firearm operation.
