How do I stop some mean mother hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind? Use a gun. If that don't work, use more gun.

#1 Bombshell/Ion Maiden?
amstrad
Pistola Con Caricato. Closer to a .38 special in size and fires a much smaller caliber. Bombshell's is probably based on it though.

Nah....I can see Percy going "see Grog? more barrels means more ouchies to whoever I point at."
DaierMune
No, I mean he literally used a Pepperbox as his handgun, until Scanlan tossed it into a pit of acid
NotThisGuyAgain
Scanlan tossing it into the acid was one of the many CMOA for Sam.

I know he did, but I can see him inventing more weird guns ... kinda.... maybe not at the end of the series but y'know

#1 is the same gun Shelly from Ion Maiden uses. Pretty cool it actually exists.

The writers of the Constitution we’re not stupid they seen the advancements in technology coming this post illustrates that

How?
arbyssauce
Semiautomatic air rifles existed before the Constitution was written. Lewis and Clark had these rifles on their expedition.

It doesnt matter honestly. First let me say that i'm not american, and second of all, they could have been wrong.

#3 is a "Pepperbox", and #4 is a "Volley Gun"
Froglip
I've seen #4 live, it's in a castle near me. It's a fucking monster and is pointed straight to a knight's armor. (Schloss Glücksburg)
Threadnomancer
I feel like a volley gun should fire whole bullets like some tf2 shit

Nightcaste
So all nine barrels fire simultaneously? It's like a MacGyver shotgun
BluePaladin42
I am reasonably sure it's a flintlock-esque type gun. Load all 9 barrels, load the powder, let 'er rip. RIP your shoulder though.
Nightcaste
That makes me wonder how it's engineered. I can't help thinking a Flintlock would dump powder and would be hard to have all 9 fire at once.
DaierMune
Pretty much all firearm developments have revolved around the concept that MOAR DAKKA = MOAR KILLY
Nightcaste
I wasn't sure if this was intended as one big bang or nine sequential shots

You can go to the picture, hit the "Share" button & imgur will pop up. Tap on imgur to upload it, then just follow the steps.

#4 would dislocate a fuckin shoulder.
worldsokayestspeler
It looks incredibly heavy, so maybe that would help a little with recoil
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
U meant “relocate”, like to the next state over
DaierMune
"You should see the other guy..."
ThePastmaster
They wouldn't. They do.
GadenKerensky
Hence why they weren't very popular, save for being mounted on ships to spray enemy decks. Very difficult to handle, and a long time to load
BluePaladin42
Weren't small swivel canons loaded with grape shot more popular on ships?
HitlersArtCritic
I love grape shots. Basically a shotgun shell for cannons. Used to shred everything it hit. People, sails, occasionally ships.
ebeightysix
you tell that to that one dude from Sharpe! I forget his name.
GadenKerensky
Sergeant Major Patrick Harper. Sharpe himself said he gave Harper the Volley Gun because he was the only one who could handle it.

Where is the picture of the Puckle Gun created in 1718?

Oddly enough, the puckle wasn't the only firearm to fire odd shaped rounds. (But you knew this my man

There's a gun museum in Tulsa OK. It's def worth the visit if you get a chance. I haven't been since I was 8 & a lot can change in 20 years.

J. M. Davis Arms and Historical Museum in Claremore, OK. Well worth the trip, can spend all day there!

That would be the one. I grew up in Claremore & used Tulsa because 99% of the world's population has heard of Tulsa but not Claremore

That’s M855. Us civvies use it in Modern Sporting RIFLES. MSRs play in so many comp. disciplines that “sporting” is literally in the name.

It’s not pistol ammo. It’s rifle ammo that competitive shooters often use as training ammo. Source: I shoot National Match and 3 Gun.

#2 and#8 have the best names being a Harmonica pistol and Duck Foot pistol respectively.
TheReverseShock
my favourite is the even barreled duckfoots that shoot everything except what you aim at.
Fonzcorp
Because, fuck your foot.

#4 is a volley gun, I do believe. Meant to fire all 9 at once. As you can imagine, the practice never really got all that popular

#3 & #5 are also called "Peppermill" / "Pepperbox" depending on your preferred. Not only did they have fun designing them but also naming

super inacurate mark twain actually talks about one of his friends double loading all cylinders to have the muzzle flash ignite all barrels

I have a pepperbox kit, 4shot. Fun to put together but ya... not really worth a damn but not expecting much from a Black powder pistol.
bigmuffin1
Some of those volley guns took some balls to fire. The kick would dislocate your arm
Poopbike
Just for clarification this dude isn't exaggerating. That would literally happen to people using those guns
2shy4you
That literally happens to people using currently produce guns as well
Vatafeo
#8 looks like you would be happy to still have you arm
BavarianGuy
black powder is no smokeless powder in case of burn speed, so the shock would build up slower, and a 4bore or 2bore surely had more punch.
Fumbleskunk
A lot of them were "accidentally" lost overboard by marines who didn't want to dislocate their shoulders, which contributes to their rarity
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
950* JDJ, my mistake D: https/i.imgur.com/7oHui4A.jpg
Threadnomancer
Jesus can we make a volley gun out of that? Just tear the damn mount right off the ship?
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
You should see the YouTube vid of this gun. It has 0 use & was issued a special permit to exist. It weighs 50 ish lbs and each round is $40
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
One shot & these guys are done, if fired in a volley you could change direction of the ship. I would love to fire a round, just 1 though.
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
Yeep but just like punt guns most were mounted or resting on something & not exactly shoulder fired. The 959 JDJ is the modern equivalent.
BavarianGuy
The JDJ is a joke gun for fun, punt guns where uses for business purposes. And the 9 barrel guns where around a 2bore to a 4bore recoilwise
BavarianGuy
so dislocating stories where mostly sailor storries. Plus they are rare because only the guy in the birdsnest had them to shot down on the
BavarianGuy
deck of the enemy and this was so rare and impractical the navy stopped buying them only a few years after adoption.
bigmuffin1
If I were a wealthy (and large) early 1900's British explorer. The 950 JDJ would be my Bush rifle. TAKE THAT ELEPHANT
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
And that elephant, & that one, & that one, & that one 8 miles away. The energy this round carries would turn the elephant into bacon bits.
bigmuffin1
*Elephant bits. the African bacon
BavarianGuy
So you would take an inferior rifle then they really took in the time? A 2bore gun has a over 30% bigger caliber and even a 4bore is bigger.
bigmuffin1
My Mistake the JDJ is roughly 3600 grain bullet and the the 4 bore is about 2000 rounded lead or steel.
bigmuffin1
the 2 bore only being about 3500 gr. and not using conventional modern smokeless powder. Diameter isnt everything
BavarianGuy
Hm, just looked it up, quite impressive, the Schroeder & Hetzendorfer Cartridge had only slightly under half the energy with blackpowder.
BavarianGuy
You said you would take the gun, not smokeless powder too!
bigmuffin1
Yeah but a 2 bore is a large lead wad. The JDJ is a jacketed pointed projectile, roughly the same grain weight and the case is shouldered
bigmuffin1
also a 2 bore is bigger than a 4
