Giffard Gun Burns Gas Propellant For Quiet Shot
A Giffard rifle using liquefied carbonic acid gas as a propelling agent shows potential as a practical alternative to powder. The gun features a steel reservoir, a regulated gas valve, hammerless action, interchangeable parts, and a rotating dial indicating charges fired. It fires at about sixty yards with quiet operation and no smoke.
