Looks interesting, but looks like more of a novelty gun to me.
I would like to shoot a few rounds, maybe a 100 or so, through it though.

Too lazy to figure out. Is this thing real? Too lazy to work out a combined one trigger firing system? Somebody with too much time with a welder?\

At least it only had one set of sites.

I'd rather have one real one in each hand.:S

It's made in Italy. Since it is not a shotgun, just be happy that the barrels are pointing forward....:ph34r:

Multi-barrel guns are new though. I could swear I've seen antique guns with maybe five barrels.



Yes. There are a variety of old stuff with multiple barrels. Back in the "old days", when each shot had to have powder and ball loaded, multiple barrels were the only way to have a repeating weapon.

Even in the Civil War timeframe, where there were revolvers (black powder), some of the horse mounted irregulars would have 6 or 8 (or even more) pistols on them. Again, the only way to have that many shots, was to have that many loaded into a gun beforehand, there wasn't any reloading going to happen on the back of a horse.

That 45 however is just silly. It would be extremely difficult to shoot well, and regulating the barrels would be nearly impossible. In this case "well regulated" means having both barrels shoot to the same point of aim. With the way the barrels move during the action cycle, getting them dialed in would be a huge challenge.
