I'd like to hear the review. I barely even know what the thing is. I've got the damn song stuck in my head now, anyway.

it’s a double barrel .22 Mag revolver. It Key holes and cylinder giggles like a jello. Lock up is loose like a goose. Trigger is worst than a HK VP70, you need 2 fingers on the trigger to fire it.
is that a bluegrass band???

Does it fire both barrels at once? That might be amusing - though I suppose it might also make it an NFA item.

it’s technically called a Volly fire. So it’s a split second behind the other bullet.. but yeah
Temporarily hijacking the thread to make it about Thunderstruck, contender for best AC/DC song ever...
I like that Steve'n'Seagulls version. LOL
A good instrumental version: https://www.google.com/search?clien...#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:933d3d4a,vid:zAGCDvesHJU

I did briefly own a duck's foot pistol built from a kit. It was a caplock with four barrels splayed out in a horizontal plane, covering about a 40 degree arc. Stupid and pointless, though still kind of fun. The rangemaster just about had a stroke. Ah, to be 17 again...

Exactly!! Guns like that spice up the gun world. I imagine it is pretty loud.

If I wanted an ugly useless gun I'd go for a classic USFA Zip .22.

USFA made some of the best 1873 SAA clones… well someone’s gotta buy it. By the way. the maximum effective range of this gun is 3 feet! after that … well toilet

Still over the toilet. Must be a holy crap gun.

Okay, okay, okay. I might as well ask a relevant question.
What kind of .22 WMR did you fire through it? Brand? Bullet weight? Bullet type?

I was shooting at an indoor range and the guy next to me fired four rounds that sounded like he was shooting a .44 Magnum. There was a pause then 4 more loud reports. I walked back to my range bag sitting on the counter a few feet behind the firing lanes and when I turned and looked at what the guy was shooting next to me he had one of those Thunderstruck revolvers in his hand.
I asked what he thought of it and his response was “The first time I shot this the other day it scared the hell out of me. I wasn’t expecting this much boom.”
That gun seems to live up to its name. Man, is it loud for what it is. He did mention the trigger wasn’t that good and it was awkward to shoot. I did not see what ammo he was using and he ended his shooting right after this so I assume it must have also had some kick to it.
