handgun with a rotating cylinder

A small gun that you hold in one hand, with a round part (cylinder) that turns to load each bullet.

نمط الاستخدام: to point a revolver at [someone]
خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse "revolver" with the general word "gun" or "pistol". A revolver is a specific kind of handgun with a rotating cylinder. Another common mistake is leaving out the article: in English we say "a revolver", not "he has revolver". Learners may also confuse the noun "revolver" with the verb "revolve" or the noun "revolution"; these are unrelated meanings.
