Well, I thought this wheelgun certainly arrives with its own unique flavor.

There's plenty of other articles about this, but the link above should suffice to school you on it.

I’m a fan of .22 WMR revolvers, but I would worry that the spring strength required to reliably fire two rim fire rounds at once would make for a very stiff double-action trigger.

It appears that it is a two finger trigger.

With 1.25 inch barrels, this is strictly a belly gun.

One trigger pull and 2 rounds fire... does that cross the lines of the new BATF rules or the proposed changes to increasing the rate of fire?

Interesting. I wonder if the ATF has certified that this is not a machine gun. The article quotes someone from the manufacturer giving their opinion that it does not meet the definition of a "machine gun", but I also don't think that my plastic stock which is incapable of firing any rounds at all is not a "machine gun". The ATF disagrees with me, and they may disagree with the manufacturer's rep as well.

It is not a machine gun. Until they decide it is a machine gun!

interesting concept like an old pepperbox but...

that design?

looks like the rear and underside of where a trigger guard should be is just an extended trigger making it easier to catch the trigger on anything in a purse/ a pocket / holster while holstering ... Glockleg myth meet VolleyFire reality
