Puckle gun
Comments invited on the Puckle gun, an early eighteenth century repeater, and whether the rotating device it used to hold used pre-loaded rounds was a "magazine" or not. See Talk:Puckle gun as well. Andy Dingley (talk) 07:44, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, please come and point out that a revolver cylinder is not a magazine, as the above user appears to have trouble with this idea. Herr Gruber (talk) 11:57, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Rotary magazine inventor
Apparently, there were rotary magazine fed rifles before Arthur Savage's design, but I can't seem to find the true inventor. The earliest example of a rotary magazine that I've been able to find comes from a man called Otto Schoenauer. However, a number of sources say he wasn't the originator of the invention, so, who was? — Preceding unsigned comment added by SQMeaner (talk • contribs) 09:41, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
