I saw a revolver at the NRA firearms museum called the Cameleon which is a revolver with a long maybe 5 inch barrel but the interesting part is the cylinger is off to the side, to the round which is to be fired is at the 3 o'clock postion.

Guess they built it so the bore axis was lower than in a regular revolver. Anyone have any info?

This one? I wish I did, that's an interesting design.

IIRC, it's not a real gun, just a mockup of one.

On a similar theme, Chiappa makes the Rhino. It is a revolver that shoots from the bottom of the cylinder. It looked and felt nice, but I couldn't get past the almost $900 price tag at the local gun store.
