Ditto.
And how many people have said the same about the FsN? Or maybe they said it was a waste of plastic? Either way, I say let 'em have their fun with it, something useful may come out of experimenting with oddities. (For instance, go look in a mirror :laugh: )

I might own one just for the hell of it; I wouldn't buy it (well maybe if it was ~$200 I would) but I'm not going to say that no one should.

I was laughing because in another thread someone posted a photoshop job of a Kel-tec but post a 1911 version and everyones' like, "I might own one!".

Too each there on but why? Other than the fact you throw it in a safe and wait for 20 years..

I had someone come in the shop today asking about when we're getting them and how much.
:evil:


I think that guy is great! I would love to have him cut a promo for EA.

Who the sham wow guy, or the side by side retard?

On the legality of this, the U.S. determines a firearm as a machine gun when more than one round is fired for one pull of the trigger. The options for this double-barreled pistol as quoted from their website,

"The AF2011-A1 (“Twenty Eleven” for aficionados) can be ordered either with 2 independent triggers and one sear group (left or right, with user-interchangeability for right or left operations) or with 2 triggers permanently joined and the choice of 1 or 2 sear groups."

So, you can get either 2 independent triggers and one sear group, which lists this firearm as a machine gun (for one trigger or the other will act on the sear and fire both barrels) or with 2 triggers permanently joined w/ 1 or 2 sear groups. As the laws govern the pull of trigger as the determining factor as to the fact a firearm is a machine gun or not, option two will make it legal to own. Even with both triggers permanently joined, you may pull on one (left or right) with only one finger but both triggers are pulled because they are linked. The law doesn't state anything about governing a firearm with two triggers, both needing to be acted upon by a users finger(s) or the fact that a firearm with two triggers require a sear system for each trigger.

Atleast that is my understanding of the law. :ponder: Who knows, maybe we can buy them before the government puts admendments on the law controlling machine guns that includes rules on the number of sear systems and multiple triggers.

As it is an oddity, I'd purchase one just for the novelty and showpiece. Of course I'd take it to the range and play with it too. :D

Looks like the bad guy in the new Bond movie is going to be carrying it:

Guy w/gun is Dave Bautista (Drax, Guardians of the Galaxy), probably playing the villain's henchman.

I just realized something...
The fact that it's going to be in a Bond movie actually kind of funny considering Jay's comment 3 years ago.

I was going to say he was a consultant but then we'd see more FiveseveNs & 10mm's being used in movies. :laugh:

Quite unusual, but I don't know if I would buy one. What would be the purpose other than a range toy?
