Many of you know about the Medusa, a revolver designed to shoot almost every .38/9mm cartridge interchangably, and eject even the rimless ones easily. Idl love to have one, but even when they come up for sale they're nearly 1K if not more, which is way over my limit. From what I've read about it it might very well be worth the price--a lot of new design went into it. Still, I can't justify spending the dough.
So would it be unfeasible to adapt a current revolver to fire a number of those cartridges? What I'm thinking is, why not have moon or half-moon clips made for the various rounds? Like 9mm and .380. It isn't going to be as eclectic as a Medusa, which can chamber six completely different cartridges in one cylinder, shoot the shooter so choose. But it would allow me to expand the types of ammo I can shoot in it, with a bit of planning ahead, i.e, having the moon clips made ahead of time.
Experts, please tell me what I'm overlooking.
