CWRevolvers.Iobjs.readme......... this file
These are the two pistols shown in CWRevolvers.hamin.
The objects are to a (very approximate) scale of 1 Imagine unit = 1 mm.
The LeMat is a remarkable and rare revolver favored by Confederate general
officers. The barrel really IS half octagonal and half round. This is the
"First Model," with nine shots (!) of caliber .42 inch (10.6mm) in the
conventional cylinder and a .63 inch (16mm) shotgun barrel below.
Starr was third in Union pistol procurement (behind Colt and Remington).
The model shown is the 1858 Army in caliber .44 inch (11mm). This was a
self-cocking weapon: everything happens when the trigger is pulled, but
it cannot be used single-action by cocking the hammer. Squeamish users
may wish to remove the tacks from the handgrip, a form of decoration
allegedly practiced by Jesse James (who owned a pistol of this model) in
place of cutting notches.
These objects require the Wood texture included with Imagine. The LeMat
also uses Grid for checkering, and the Star uses Camouflage for
case-hardening on the hammer, trigger, and loading lever assembly.
Freely distributable, but if you use or distribute either object without
this file you must credit:
