Absolutely. I love the machine-like looks of these revolvers, kind of like a steam engine or something.

The cylinder release on the Enfield is just a marvel of engineering. Instead of a single screw or a simple, spring loaded button you have to unscrew the bottom lever, turn it to release the upper lever, and then pull the cylinder out. On top of that, it's all mounted to the outside of the gun. I love stuff like that!
