I only need the one bullet!

Short: Deacon Jim. I give this to the Peacemaker. I was taught during my battle between Custer and Thesiger that the Peacemaker gets the edge due to the fact that it fires the superior bullet, the extra bullet, and of course the higher punching power... though I could figure that out by also reading. Though, I think it was your vote in Custer v Thesiger that told me that the Beaumont-Adams was a cap-and-ball pistol, while the Peacemaker fires metallic cartridges. In fact, I think I'll even quote you on this one: "Simply put, the Beaumont-Adams is impossible to reload on the battlefield while the Colt Peacemaker can be, albeit slightly difficult."

Mid: Even. The Colt Revolving Rifle would appear to have this in the bag, with it's longer range and more bullets. But the Revolving Rifle was racked with problems, of course igniting all six chambers at once, exploding, etc. Meanwhile, the Coach Gun has two barrels, can probably be reloaded faster, and of course is known for beign reliable. Plus, it only takes one barrel to knock a man on his rear, killing him or not.
