The Mauser C78 zig-zag was a single-action revolver manufactured by Mauser during the late 19th century. It was chambered in calibers from 6 mm to 11 mm and had a six-round, zig-zag-grooved cylinder, hence the name of the revolver. The original C78 zig-zag revolver ( https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/military/gun/mauser-zig-zag-fixed ) had a solid frame and loading gate. It was developed for the 1879 German trials to provide the first German military handgun to fire modern brass cartridges and to replace the earlier needle-fire and pinfire revolvers. It performed well in the trials but was rejected for being too complex to manufacture. It was Paul Mauser's first handgun design. Later, the design evolved into a top break, and a swinging cylinder design and also include a solid frame rifle version. In 1886, an improved 9 mm version with a hinged frame was introduced. In 1896, the C78 was replaced by the semi-automatic Mauser C96 broomhandle, but many of the older revolvers remained in use until after World War I.
