njJoniGuy 2,131 Posted December 18, 2018 It would certainly make a match run faster, given that you're getting a 4 shot group with each pull! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maksim 1,504 Posted December 18, 2018 So.... seriously, what is the practical application for firing 5 shots at the same time? Also... has an electronic trigger and requires batteries? RIIIIIGHT.... that will absolutely be 100% reliable. Reminds me of that double 1911.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myhatinthering 462 Posted December 18, 2018 stupid idea and one that has been tried by the US, Russia and the UK in the past. An entirely new weapons platform will need to be developed and a new trigger. The Russians were the only ones to successfully field a rifle like this with one putting 3 bullets off of one trigger pull into the same hole but NOT SURPRISINGLY, it wasn't reliable. Army needs to spend this money on further training and stop trying to reinvent the wheel. The m4 series of rifles are more than adequate, reliable, accurate, cheap, and ergonomic 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maksim 1,504 Posted December 18, 2018 Instead of 3 or 5 bullets, why not just use a bigger bullet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobA 1,235 Posted December 18, 2018 I couldn't agree more. It's a toy only a General could love. I posted it tongue 'n cheek Because if Governor Beaver moves toward five round mags this would be the counter purchase. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty sure it is about a higher hit probability, not necessarily putting 3/4/5 holes at once in the target. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
