Glisenti Bodeo 1889 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

The Bodeo Model 1889 is a solid-frame gate-loading revolver using the 10.35mm Ordinanza Italiana cartridge. The Bodeo is based in part on the Chamelot-Delvigne revolver.[1] The frame was made of a variety of materials from brass to brazed copper. The ejection rod is normally housed in the hollow axis pin, underneath the barrel. To use the rod, the rod is rotated out counterclockwise and lines up with the loading gate. As a safety measure, the loading gate is connected to the hammer, and opening the loading gate disconnects the hammer, and pulling the trigger after that will only turn the cylinder.
