How about a double? No, this is NOT (apparently) a gag!

Double the pleasure, huh?

Wonder if it's an NFA weapon since I guess it fires more than one bullet per trigger - pull.

According to the article, that was considered, with a two-trigger model; that way each trigger only fires one shot!

Stoppages should be quite interesting!!

How do they get the barrel bushings off?

Does it say in the manual, "If you cannot palm a bowling ball, don't shoot this piece!"

Now about those sights.

It might fix my double tap problem.

I want one for IPSC, but I'm not sure how I will manage Virginia Count stages.

I guess the question is "Why?", and the answer is "Cause we can!".

I saw this article and immediately thought Mall Ninja Heaven!

Gunmaker invents chilling double-barrel handgun - msnNOW

Of course, I would LOVE to have one! Or two!

IrishCop,

EXACTLY SO.

yours, sw

The more I think about this, the more questions I have.

• If you only trip one trigger, is there enough recoil to cycle the action?
• Does it then eject a live round from the unfired side?
• If not, do you have to manually cycle the action after you fire the 2nd barrel?
• If they are slightly out of synch is it possible for the second barrel to fire out of battery?

It looks like a troll to me. Next month we'll be looking at this story the same way we were looking at the story about hunting naked women with a paintball gun.

If they hate two, they'd crap themselves into oblivion at the old COP .357 pepperbox and its four...

If I were building this, I'd have two independent slides with opposed ejection so each half worked independently aside from safety and mag-release. But I'd also want it so you could reload the left well with regular single-stack 1911 mags in a pinch...

Kinda cool, like how the "Remington 1740" is two 870s bolted together, but with better integration.

Gee, this looks like a possible compromise between the opposing theories of light fast, big heavy. Just make one side .38 Super and the other .45 ACP!
