- The revolver appears to be made from machined and polished forged steel, with only the trigger guard / grip frame of some non-ferrous (zinc?) alloy. It was manufactured under the trade name, “Arminius,” so named after an ancient Germanic military leader who successfully fought the Roman Empire’s legions nearly two thousand years ago.

A manual of arms was an instruction book for handling and using weapons in formation, whether in the field or on parade. Such manuals were especially important in the matchlock and flintlock eras, when loading and firing was a complex and lengthy process typically carried out in close order. When capitalized, the term has reference to one of several important manuals, such as the British Army manual of 1764, the manual of Frederick the Great or Von Steuben's Regulations for the Order and Discipline of the Troops of the United States, adopted by the Continental Army in 1777. The positions and evolutions contained in such manuals have become the standard for parade drill throughout most of the world.
A manual of arms was an instruction book for handling and using weapons in formation, whether in the field or on parade. Such manuals were especially important in the matchlock and flintlock eras, when loading and firing was a complex and lengthy process typically carried out in close order. If you’ve lost your owners manual, of if you bought your gun used and it didn’t come with one, this collection of gun manuals probably has just what you’re looking for. Its collection of gun manuals is quite vast, it has manuals from obscure gun models all the way to the CMP M1 Garand. Gunmarks implies that FIE made Arminius revolvers in the U.S. After imporation stopped. I'm guessing that FIE owned the rights to the name in the U.S. Prior to the '68 Gun Control Act, FIE was purely an importer.
15 Count Manual Of Arms
Typical examples of rules and procedures can be found in the 1764 manual.[1] It was used by both sides at the start of the American Revolution.
- Stance: stand straight, head right, shoulders square, stomach in, chest out, heels close, toes turned out a little.
- Holding the weapon: on the left shoulder, forefinger and thumb to the side of the stock, the other three holding the butt.
- Timing: each motion to be done on a count of 'one, two'.
Such manuals contain various evolutions, such as the twelve or so steps needed to load, ready and fire, and steps for fixing bayonets, forming line (for firing), column (for bayonet charges) or square (for repelling cavalry).
Arminius Revolver Manual Of Arms 38 Special
A second example is the manual used for training of Union troops in 1861.[2] While not always dictating the stance (as reference is made to loading from horseback), specific instructions were given for drawing on command (specifically the rifle and pistol), loading, firing, cease-firing, inspecting and returning the weapons to their carrying position (slinging the carbine, or holstering the revolver).
