An interesting gun, it seems odd to me though that they wouldn't compile the trigger function into one trigger. It seems kind of bulky as well, overall I'm glad someone has finally done something my pen & paper RPG characters have been doing for years.

why would two barrels on a gun be useful? wouldn't it just make it harder to get an accurate shot?

I understand if you're in a close quarters fight but wouldn't a shotgun be more effective?

I will pay so much money for a cane sword though

Does the right to bear arms extend to medieval weaponry? Its academic for me, since i'm british, but the idea of being able to walk down the street with a sword is pretty awesome.

How uncouth. Real gentlemen use muzzleloading pistols;

*adjusts monocle*
Maybe you need educating on what a real gentleman is.



This is what real gentlemen use. Wouldn't even take off their tophat.
Are you challenging me good sah?! Gutter trash! *throws rose*
Good thing I carry a glove for such an occasion *face slap*
It seems you've thrown down the gauntlet! Very well, en garde!
Dueling gun vs cane sword? This should be interesting, make sure the survivor posts it on Youtube.

I predict the gun owner will win if he get a clean, steady, first shot off. If however he misses...well he won't have the chance to reload.
That's why you never leave home without an Apache Pistol!



Now that is how you make an ugly, overly elaborate handgun!

A 9mm will bounce off a target's skin and a .45 will kill everyone in a 4 mile radius.
I choose to ignore the inherent sarcasm!

...woah, I didn't know that! That's cool. Why do people bother with 9mm?? Are they dumb?! (Seriously though, you sound like somebody who knows their shit. Like somebody living in the real world with a brain. That other guy reads like he barely finished elementary school.)
Eh, just did a lot of research when I was buying my first handgun. Ended up getting a .40 cal Glock because I live in NY state, which has a 10 round magazine law, so the extra rounds from a 9mm wouldn't be helpful for me. My primary CCW is a Kahr CW9 though.
again if you know absolutely nothing about firearms and have no real life experience with shooting your argument makes sense...

you know the assault weapon ban that had the 10 round limit on rounds in a mag was lifted a decade ago and even then the law only pertained to NEW magazines and you could still readily purchase pre-ban made high capacity magazines legally? of course not because you don't actually own a firearm and are just repeating random nonsense you read on a website

hurr durr I have a glock... lmao ... and the Kahr CW9 is a budget POS that only an idiot would waste their time with... single stacked 9mm LMAO

Who wants to bet that the next thing they do is 'update' the M28 Thompson to utilize C-Mags and RIS Rails? I shudder at the thought...
there are already a few companies that make custom RIS rails for m28s... complete stock replacements too... as far as c-mags go they would be rather pointless considering 50 and 100 round drums for the m28 have been around since it's creation
If you were actually willing to do your research instead of acting intelligent you would realize several states implemented an assault rifle ban in their own laws that didn't expire when then federal one did. New York, where I live and where I stated I live, is one such state. Preban magazines are also difficult to find, five times the price, and often faulty due to age. The Glock 22 also has them available if I should manage to find one.

Stop acting like you know everything about guns, every time you do you make yourself look more like a fool.

Depends on the state. You can own swords in every state but whether you can openly carry it is a different matter. Some states allow open carry of weapons (be they bladed or firearms) others require said weapons to be concealed.

im sorry but what is the point of this? shooting some one once is generally enough, even if a second shot is needed just pull the trigger twice, its not hard. Add to that the fact that you've made your pistol much heavier, much larger (harder/more awkward to conceal carry) and added much more recoil and i think this pistol is counter productive, a step back over regular pistols and made one worse.

also i dont even care what a gun looks like, just so long as it works and even i think that the pistol looks trashy, it looks like some sort of toy gun a 10 year old drew in the back of his math's book
Shooting someone just once with a handgun is very rarely enough. Handguns have very low stopping power, but you're better off using something with low recoil so you can put multiple shots on target as opposed to something where you can only put one really powerful round on target. Even the best shots miss sometimes.

No thanks, I already don't like the recoil on a normal, single-barrel .45 ACP round. Also, it looks ugly! The only thing that looks good double-barreled is an old-fashioned shotgun. And maybe a flintlock pistol.
what recoil? on a .45 acp the recoil is next to nothing unless you are a small child... I carry a Para Ordnance P14.45... all the class and functionality of a classic M1911 but with a nice 14 round double stacked mag and I can put rounds down range just as accurately and fast as you could with an M92FS 9mm... except for the fact that being a .45 instead of a 9mm when my rounds hit someone they will actually do some decent damage

also the double barrel is kinda pointless since even in a shotgun the only reason they have double barrels is for twice the shots... you are not supposed to fire both barrels at the same time... so for a handgun it makes no sense since an extended mag would accomplish the same thing but be a lot more practical
I'm 250 pounds and experienced with handguns, I don't know what magic made yours out of, but a .45 has significant kick, way too much for all but the best shooters to put repeated shots accurately down range with speed.

Also, double barrel shotguns are supposed to put two rounds downrange at once. Very much so. In fact, you can tell a cheap double-barrel shotgun because the loading spring isn't strong enough to handle a double-shot more than a few times. A duck-hunter friend of mine has only had one double-barrel(that's all he uses) that did that btw, all the rest he routinely fired both barrels at once with no problem.

That would be the most unwieldy piece of crap in the world...Too heavy, triggers would be difficult to fire correctly, the grip likely won't fit many people, your finger would be all wrong on the trigger, it wouldn't improve your rate of accurate fire at all, and god help you if you pull both triggers at the same time...that is the makings of a dislocated wrist.

The only reason a double barreled shotgun works is because it is shoulder fired and the triggers are front and back, not side by side.


Captcha: "dead man's hand" in a thread about guns...irony!

Next to nothing? I don't know what you're talking about. It's enough to be annoying while shooting. I'd gladly take my Sig P250 (yeah, shut up, I can't afford more expensive Sigs at the moment) over your Para Ordnance. And 9mm does damage just fine, on the tiny chance that I actually ever have to use it against another human being.

I didn't mean a double barrel shotgun is useful; I just think it's one of the few guns that looks alright with two barrels.
if you think a 9mm does decent damage than you have obviously never shot a person... if you think a .45 acp's recoil is annoying than you are either a very very weak person or have limp wrists

the only people who prefer the 9mm over a real round are those who have absolutely no real experience in shooting or those that are horrible at it

the point of shooting someone is to kill them... flat out... and for that the 9x19mm Parabellum just does not cut it
Spoken like someone who has never shot a gun in his life.
Couldn't have said it better myself.

Looks silly, I prefer those revolvers with the short barrel that you can hide easily in your coat, those are badass.
They're generally called snub-nosed, just an fyi.
nackertash said:
That is childish and reaaaaaallly fucked up.
What is it for? Honestly why does that thing exist?
Also it isn't cool, this is real life and that thing is designed to take lives.
Oh yes, because people would never try to kill me if I didn't have a firearm, and self-defense isn't cool at all.
That thing isn't designed to take lives, it's a show piece, completely useless in a real life self-defense or combat situation. way too much recoil.

again 8 years 0311 0317... i've probably killed more people in real life than comprise your actual family...

the 9mm is a wounding round.. useless in war but ok for cops where the point is to NOT KILL.. hell most soldier are never even issued a sidearm

again by the time a normal soldier pulls his sidearms it is already over except for the crying... no spec ops unit uses the 9mm because it is useless... the 9mm is only preferred by people who NEVER SEE REAL COMBAT

Vincent is very interested in your double-barelled pistol!

Aren't you Vincent?

Oh fuck that made me lol.
A lot.
I am actually crying a little bit.
And by crying I mean weeping.

I especially liked the bit about golf carts with mounted shrike missiles!

Well, on the subject of unnecessarily impractical weapons that could be achieved with duct tape or just having both:

ITS A KNIFE
THAT SHOOTS BULLETS

Pepperbox gun. There's a reason those never caught on. Unwieldy, harder to reload, heavy, generally inaccurate, strange firing method (and action in general), usually has pissy grip and trigger. It's a bastard child of a revolver, and anyone who watches Pawn Stars knows that the argument going for it (besides it rarity or uniqueness) is that it's specifically not a revolver.

I'd go with the derringer: just as shitty, but it's more compact and light.

Hey?

Wasn't the pepperpot what they had before they could build proper revolvers, at which point it was abandoned?
