Word "Revolver" Used to Describe German Handguns

Yeah, I was gonna say: Wasn't the Dardik bullet triangular or something? I do remember it...

I guess my point is that it's not only historically inaccurate to call what must be Lugers "revolvers", but I find it personally irritating because the image I summon up is a German soldier with an Enfield revolver or something when they use the wrong word...

I guess maybe us gun freaks are too critical...
