"Double-Taps" v Duplex Loads v Volley-Gun?

I was very pleased to find that the new Gen 5 Glock 19 has the chamfered  "rounded nose" treatment that I'd liked on an earlier .40" caliber gun:

I missed that change on first view .. which says heaps about my powers of observation eh! - I might have made a half-decent copper (except for my glasses) .. but would definitely have been a crap 'D'.

That cosmetic change and better trigger pull might persuade me to buy a Gen 5 when they arrive down here in the "roaring forties".

Anyway ...

Meanwhile .. I just spotted the weird Standard Manufacturing S333 in the  2018 Gun Digest  ..

- What is not obvious from the pictures is that this oddball is a THREE-SHOT   handgun.

- This volley gun fires two of it's .25 ACP rounds for each trigger pull.. it's not a revolving "pepperpot" but has rotary twin firing-pins.

Like the Arsenal Double 1911 - it delivers two rounds on target simultaneously - BUT it's a lot cheaper - at a suggested retail price of US$300 .

Their Standard Manufacturing website is awful and next to useless .. but they do claim that other chamberings than .25" ACP will follow.

Now I am 'world-famous-in-New Zealand' for my terrible taste in guns ... I love my shorty 12 gauge side-by-side and the consensus vote is that the butt-stock on my 9 mm JRC carbine is b-ugly - But I love it - and the Standard Volley Gun 😍 

JRC Also 'weird'?

No taste - no brains ... maybe - but delivering two shots into a proper target doubles the impact surface area and should produce the needed result as long as a decent caliber at a decent velocity is used.

- As for me shooting rapid 'double-taps' from any of my handguns (past or present) in the expectation of the legendary "snake-eyes" .. No Way - my fast second rounds just fly wildly & randomly around the backing boards .. if I'm lucky.

 I need aimed fire.

And likely it won't affect the result whether the pills come from two barrels simultaneously or from one duplex loaded cartridge eh.

NOW you can send me a wee support $ - starting from $1. to get all this stuff from New Zealand - over a year that's nearly the price of one Shooting magazine. - Am I worth it?
