Double-Barrel 1911 Lands ATF Approval, Importation To Begin Next Year

Anyone every shot one?

 

[Joq867]

I want two, and a double shoulder holster.

 

[SW.Ecks]

Probably not around here... yet! I personally think it's a terrible (and incredibly ugly) thing to do to a 1911... but an interesting idea regardless of the atrocity that has been done to such a classic.

Brings a whole new meaning to double tap... how about a quadruple tap?

 

[MikeDVB]

With dual FLGR it looks like double the fun to disassemble.

Good conversation piece at the range.

Just one word: WOW!!! Or two if you are the criminal staring at the business end: Holy Shiite ! ! !

You would need to have BIG hands to hold that gun. I doubt I could reach the trigger with that fat grip.

 

[SW.Ecks]

I agree about the grip. Hence the reason I own and shoot single stacks

 

[JS1911]

I don't know about shooting one, but I'd like to at least hold one in my hands, just to see if I can reach the damn trigger. This is the epitome of Cool, but Impractical.

.45 X 2. So that makes this .90 cal? Cool!

It's not clear from the photos but they must have connected the hammers somehow. Since the slide is a single unit, if one side started recoiling before the other side, it seems like you might open the breech before both barrels were fired.

It's an interesting idea but I'm not sure why. Just another example of "we did it because we could" here.

Is it real? I think it's a joke.

 

[throttletony]

Think you can shoot just one side or the other? Like only loading 1 of the mags for example

The morality speech of Dr. Ian Malcolm from Jurassic Park comes to mind... "we were so busy to see if we could, we didn't stop to ask if we should..."
Something along those lines.

I gotta say if I want a double 45 I'll carry 2 of them......That thing is hideous!!!!!

Have to hold it with two hands to reach the trigger!

 

[aaron580]

They took double stack to heart on that one...

 

[Hoosier Daddy]

The first thing I thought of was the gun in the Green Hornet movie.
