The National Firearms Museum has a short on the British Nock Volley gun. I didn't realize that the simultaneous discharge of all seven .52 caliber barrels could break a man's shoulder. Scroll down from the Link (http://www.nrablog.com/?tag=/curator%27s+corner)

I'm still a bit stunned by the double barreled bolt action elephant gun.

I'm just suprised that someone hasn't tried reproducing it in a more shooter friendly caliber- such as .36 or .40 just for the heck of it.

I'd buy one. :D

I'm just trying to picture in my mind's eye how the flame channels would go to all the barrels, as getting all that right would have to be a nightmare, as well as cleaning it...but to be the only feller with one- ah! :)
