Self-Loading

Qt Pistol 
are the most efficient Riot Preventres and are rapidly taking 
the place of the latter revolvers and more complicated automatic or 
self-loading pistols all over the world. As an offensive or defensive 
weapon for the Military, Sheriffs, Prospectors, Surveyors, Cowboys 
and Frontiersmen, it has no equal. 
It is sighted up to looo yards. It will shoot a mile. It will 
penetrate 17 inches of pine. It can be fired six shots within one 
second and holds six or ten cartridges, smolieless powder, soft nose 
or full mantled bullets. 10 shots can be reloaded in a couple of seconds 
and it is fully guaranteed. No other weapon will command the same 
wholesome respect among the lawless. It has killed bear, deer, 
and nearly all big game and little game to be found on this continent, and its small size and 
light weight make it a most desirable auxiliary.
