The cylinder was designed by
Jonathan Phillips, a computer specialist for NASA
and competition shooter who regularly carried multiple guns of different calibers to
the shooting range. The Medusa was an attempt to solve this, because most of the
weapons that he carried were in the 9mm /.38 range. To withstand the varying
pressures involved in the various rounds, the cylinder is made with mil-spec 4330
modified vanadium steel and is specially hardened. This cylinder is about twice as
strong as any other on the market. It uses special rims and springs to hold rimless
cartridges.
It was most definitely designed as a bug-out / SHTF / apocalypse revolver. It is
tantamount to a jack of all trades, master of none. It suffers from accuracy issues,
so close-range firing is recommended. It's been out of production for decades and is
a holy grail for some gun collectors.
