What Is A Black Powder Pistol?

A black powder pistol is one that requires you to manually load it down the muzzle with primer, powder, wad, and shot. These pistols aren’t for everyone, but enthusiasts find these handguns to be exemplary, if only for the skill necessary to successfully use one.

While original pistols are available, it’s more fiscally responsible to buy a reproduction, such as a mid-1800s revolver or a 1700s percussion.

These pistols do require more care and maintenance than modern handguns. With that care, however, comes exceptional reliability.

The NAA Companion 1860 Earl is a mini revolver, weighing in at 9.2 ounces and has a four-inch barrel. It is a .22 cap and ball pistol and resembles a 150-year-old revolver of the Wild West. It has a wooden stock, stainless finish, and an octagonal barrel.
