Hilariously bad as in, "will get you killed." Though I guess a cap and ball revolver wouldn't be bad. What do you black powder folks think?

Love my Ruger Old Army! Not really a concealed carry revolver though...

Might open carry a cap and ball revolver, but you still have problems with reloading and the spent caps potentially getting stuck in the cylinder... You could get extra cylinders and "speed load" that way!

That is how the Texas Rangers did it with the Walker Colts.

You could carry to 1851 Navy Colts for self defense like Wild Bill Hickok.

Hilariously bad now, perhaps, but most were the cat's pajamas when they were first introduced. (Except the Nambu. It sucked then as a carry weapon and it sucks now.)

It must have been the shits to try and reload a Nagant in combat.
