A debased barrel revolver is disclosed which comprises a stock having a rear mount, a cylinder carried rotatably on said stock close against the rear mount, a barrel mounted on the stock in alignment relationship with a bottom cartridge chamber of the cylinder, and a release and percussion mechanism, and wherein at least some of the components of the release and percussion mechanism are supported in a chamber formed in the rear mount and extending therein perpendicularly to and above the barrel. By virtue of the reduced extent in the longitudinal direction of the release and percussion mechanism, substantially all of the elastic potential energy stored up therein can be utilized on striking.
