It's my impression that the word "rotate" implies one turn or less - a singularity - as compared with "revolve" which would be numerous rotations. Hmmm?

The name, I would guess, was based on the spindle or pin around which the chambers of the pistol revolved. They didn't exactly complete a full rotation except in the case of emptying said weapon. |
