What's all that terrible behind the idea? Artillery still to this day uses automatic extraction - ejects spent case, after which it must be loaded manually. So the concept on it's own is OK, it's just that the specific execution of the idea might be flawed.

@UCcIQXK-jYgvydGxuSmadtAg Indeed, it doesn't extract bullet on it's own either, only when hammer is lifted, I didn't realise that at first. And, as you just pointed out, there is no way for a live round to be loaded and securely sit ready to fire, as the breach block is not separate from the hammer, which is absolutely hilarious! XD Besides it can give user "a thumb", if breach block is released while fingers are still in the breach area.
