Anson & Deeley Boxlock Action
The boxlock action is a firing mechanism with the lockwork mounted internally, as opposed to being mounted on the side of the weapon. Boxlock actions were common in the 18th and 19th centuries. The action gets its name from the lockwork typically being installed in a box of sort, usually inline behind the barrel. Most boxlock weapons were flint fired, though pinfire and percussion cap boxlocks also existed. The popularity of boxlock actions declined rapidly after the emergence of percussion revolvers in the mid 1800s. Advantages and disadvantages Boxlock actions have the advantage that they are more compact than side mounted lock mechanisms, which made them a popular choice for pocket pistols. The compact design also made them well suited for pistols with multiple barrels and pepperbox pistols The pepper-box revolver or simply pepperbox (also "pepper-pot", from its resemblance to the household pepper shakers) is a multiple-barrel firearm, mostly in the form of a handgun ...
