Backlighting Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Giving wide body new meaning, this gun spits two .45 bullets down range with each press of the dual triggers.http://www.theblaze....it-the-shelves/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Very interesting. The single clip supplying both barrels is ingenious though I wonder about jamming. I fired the military 45 some years ago and it had quite a kick though I weighed about 190 lbs and was well muscled. I did not try to keep the barrel level after firing but allowed it to throw my hand back a few inches, which would not be feasible if I needed to quickly re-fire. Two barrels would be quite a recoil, so a heavier gun would be advisable. The body shock wave from one 45 round was enough to kill even if a body or head shot was not accomplished so I don’t see the need for two barrels except as a novelty.Peter Taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backlighting Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 No price published yet but I'll speculate it to be $1000+I had a Colt 1911 45 but sold it & got the Glock 40 cal when it was introduced back in 1990. I prefer 15+1 round capacity of the Glock & the punch of the 40 cal is only slightly lower than the 45 cal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was commissioned for the Moro revolution in the Pacific Rim, the Philippines.There were wave assaults of fanatics and we needed a rapid firing weapon to drive back the body of a drug enhanced assault.Now here is the special part of the story...guess what "Moro" translates to...YES Muslim!! So now we can tell Dr. Paul's followers that this was the real reason for the attack on 911!Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaalChatzaf Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 What about a three across or four across slug thrower with .45 caliber slugs. That sounds like even more fun.ruveyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, the development of the 45ACP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
