That is double ugly. I can appreciate the work and engineering, but I still don't want one. Fun to watch though. :)

I was holding out for a double barrel recoiless rifle but will settle for a double barrel 1911.

That is about as useless as it gets!!!

Although, it's neat to watch and you gotta give them credit for the work that went into it~

How the heck would you carry one concealed? In a car?
Don't know about you guys but i don't think my hands are big enough for that grip frame.
What happens if you get a failure to feed from one magazine? Whole thing jams?

Interesting concept, totally worthless. I remember a saying about tears on a bore hog.......

I would live to see that in slow motion. I wonder what happens if one round fires before the other.

Two triggers? What's the chance of lighting off both barrels at exactly the same time?

Looking at the video clip it actually does fire both barrels at the same time.

What I would like to see figured out to work is the double barrel Desert Eagle from the Movie "The Green Hornet" which the villain had.

Granted it was a Beretta 92 with two prop barrels on the side but if the feeding from a single magazine and trigger could be figured out...

I can send down 3,500 grains with my five shooter .500 :Fire:

One of the various problems with such a gun is the classification as a machine gun, if more than one round fires through a single trigger action. I assume that's why there is a second trigger. If the triggers aren't linked however, I suspect there could be serious timing problems.

Any way you slice it, impractical, and possibly highly regulated.

Neat idea, but I suspect it would be a jam-o-matic with anything other than laboratory perfect factory ammo...

But looks cool nonetheless. I expect to see it in a James Bond film in the near future...

less than half as effective as my sixteen shot Para Ord .45. What provision is there for regulating the barrels? It has been proven that you don't need to double tap em with the .45.
New invention? I don't think so.
The power to knock down a bull? It must be chambered in .375 H&H.
I am surprised the guy shooting it is not laughing hysterically. You can tell by the look on his face that he is thinking about getting a real gun.
I can only guess that these are not going to cost less than a regular .45 auto.
Absoutely zero cool factor.
It might take as long as ten seconds to send 4,080 grains down range with my .45.
Try again!


Life is good

In slaughter houses there has been untold numbers of bulls killed with .22's so that part doesn't impress me probably a 12 gauge with slugs is a lot more powerful.The cost would be prohibitive unless it is an investment for the future.I don't think there will be many manufactured and there for some time in the future the price may return dividends.

I would bet you never see these brought to production. Simply do not see how anyone even with huge hands could wrap around that grip.

I refer to those sorts of things as, "An answer to a question no one asked".

Just an opinion of course
