The 1860 LeMat Grapeshot Revolver is a unique firearm distinguished by its two-barrel configuration: a .36 caliber pistol barrel for accuracy and a shotgun barrel for close-range power. Its innovative design, with a nine-round cylinder and a pivoting hammer mechanism, allowed for quick switching between firing modes. This rare and historically significant revolver, favored by Confederate cavalry officers during the American Civil War, remains a highly sought-after collector’s item today.
