The revolver was a much more effective weapon than the older, single shot guns, which took too much time to reload, if you did not kill someone with your first shot. And guns, it has been noted, are a democratizing influence. It takes a lot of skill to use a sword well; guns in comparison are much easier to use. And one man with a revolver could take out a whole gang of swordsmen. Old aristocratic systems were weakened, while new despotic systems such as that of the Soviet Union were strengthened.
