so, double barrels are machine guns..
- Zak 3y agoDouble-barreled firearms usually do not fire both barrels as a result of a single pull of a single trigger. Oddly, the AF2011A1 double-barreled handgun does fire both barrels with a single pull of a single trigger and is apparently not regulated as a machine gun. I'm confused as to why; it fits the statutory definition much more than trigger reset devices like the aforementioned shoestring do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenal_Firearms_AF2011A1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenal_Firearms_AF2011A1
- Clubber 3y agoIf you look at the pic closely, there are two triggers. This one is really an anomaly, it appears they skirt the regulation by having two triggers stuck together. https://stdgun.com/s333-thunderstruck-gen-ii/ https://stdgun.com/s333-thunderstruck-gen-ii/
- Zak 3y agoThere are two triggers on the AF2011A1, but pulling either of them fires both barrels.
- Clubber 3y agoDouble barrels don't fire both barrels without a reset unless there are two triggers.
