Meiji Type 26
Because we all need a nine millimeter service revolver
Now, here’s a question. Would you use a 9mm revolver for active combat? The correct answer is, of course you would. It’s the 1890s, baby, and every sidearm is underpowered! The Type 26, a Japanese revolver developed in ye year 1893, the 26th year of Emperor Meiji’s reign. This little guy saw quite a bit of active combat service throughout the early 20th century, and was produced way up into even the ’40s allegedly. By that time, most forces had switched over to other handguns, but a few could still be seen using it for all your WWII scenarios, or better yet, all those wacky pre-WWI scenarios I’m known for. The weapon was inspired by a couple different firearms, first and foremost the overall design seems similar to the Belgian-designed Nagant revolvers, although the trigger pull won’t break your index finger if you try using it in double-action – so that’s a plus. The Japanese government also imported numerous Smith & Wesson top-break revolvers, therefore that inspiration has quickly been covered. According to a book I have, it states that the locking mechanism was inspired by the Dutch naval revolver in use during the time, and finally, the entire side pops off, much like the French and their shenanigans with the M1892 Lebel.
