In 1997, the Mateba company developed a type of recoil operated automatic revolver, commercially named the Mateba Autorevolver, which uses the recoil energy to auto-rotate a normal revolver cylinder holding 6 or 7 cartridges, depending on the model.
The company has made several versions of its "autorevolver", including longer barelled and even rifle-like variations, usually chambered for.357 Magnum ammunition, but also available in larger calibers like.44 Magnum and.454 Casull.
Italian made, the mateba is the only semi-automatic revolver.

The autorevolver "6 Unica" with its aesthetic and unique finish, its accuracy and very soft recoil is possibly one of the best handguns on the market.
Born in the beginning of 1997, the Mateba autorevolver "6 Unica" is the most advanced version of the revolver.
The cylinder turns automatically and the hammer is engaged by the recoil of the slide on which are assembled the barrel and cylinder themselves.

Developed by the Italian gun manufacturer Mateba Srl, the Mateba Autorevolver, sometimes referred to as the Mateba Model 6 Unica, is one of the few types of hybrid handguns called automatic revolvers.
Note: Mateba Autorevolvers designed for using.357 Magnum rounds should not be loaded with.38 Special ammunition because.38 Special rounds do not have enough power to operate the cylinder rotation mechanism.
However, current production Mateba autorevolvers swing out from the bottom like most modern revolvers, albeit on a hinge that is offset from the vertical.
