Really? A double barrel 1911? Really?

I agree some need to lighten up. Yeah it's an abomination from a purist 1911 perspective, etc, etc.
Sometimes things need to be admired from a perspective of pure novelty, and this is one of them IMO. Firing two .45 ACP slugs in one BOOM, how is that not cool? Given an opportunity, don't tell me you wouldn't want to try that thing out haha.

Seems cheesy and completely pointless to me, especially considering what could only be a freakishly expensive price. I predict anyone wanting to buy one will be spending another $200 and 6 months on a tax stamp to boot.
On the lighter side, if it floats your boat and you got it to spend, then by all means have at it! ...and let me fire off a couple of rounds, if you don't mind.

Hmm, NFA or not. It does fire 2 rounds at once. But it fires them from 2 separate barrels using 2 separate firing pins.
I'd like to have one, just 'cuz.
Make a carbine out of it and it'd be sweet.
I'm not a fan of that Para Ord-esque "uberfett" grip frame. Too much like gripping a brick.

Love to see someone try to clear a double feed on that one.
I guess a Negligent Discharge would be "twice" as fun though.
Not for me. And somebody please skeletonize that hammer!
Wondering if ammunition needs to closely matched, I would think so.

Perhaps this is the start of a trend. At one time razors only had one blade, then some smart guy thought two would be better... now look what adorns our stores' shelves.

To the OP: THANK YOU! This just made my day.
Justin, that might be the best use of the Xibit meme I've ever witnessed... so +100!!!
+1 to the IWB comment too, my mind went there immediately as well x-D
If THAT's not a BBQ gun, I don't know what is! Better hope there's a range of sorts at said BBQ however, because EVERYONE (with large enough hands) is going to want to shoot it.
Holy moly, the grip does look somewhat awful to my hands, but I must say, that if I had the $$$, I would buy this in a heartbeat without hesitation! The laughs and strange reactions alone would be priceless! I happen to be a 1911-lover that has been in love with 1911s since long before I was (legally) old enough to drive, and I'm almost 30 now, so that could have something to do with it too. It just looks like a total hoot, and not something you see every day, or week, or year...
Practical? No way.
Hilarious and awesome? Yes
Feel free to send me one for a range report

I agree, it will definitely be some bad guys gun in Rambo 8;The Geriatric Years.
I can't imagine anyone with normal size hands wanting to shoot that puppy. On the other hand, aren't you glad he didn't do that with twin Beretta M9s?

I wonder if firing one round will operate the slide or does it have to have two to function correctly? What if the loads were different, would it cause a malfunction? It will be interesting to see the disclaimers in the manual, Hey maybe the manual will be double size too?

My question is how much will it cost? Is going to be double the cost of a single 1911-A1? Does that make it $700 to $900 or since it's a custom job will that make it upwards of $1200?

(Not dissing Taurus mind you...but just wait til SHOT show!)

Hmm, dissasembly looks strange, If you look at the barrel bushings they don't look like they will work correctly. One lefty and one righty?

Prettier than the tacticool Mossberg .30-30 but I dont see the value. The .45 is to be a one shot stopper, do you reallt need a double barrel?
I can see a double stack 15 round 1911, not this.

I want one bad.
It's impractical, and it's going to be crazy-expensive, I'm sure, but I gotta say this was love at first sight for me.

I'll be shocked if this turns out to be anything more than a practical joke.

....video link in post #17 would put very much doubt in my mind as it being a joke...?
I really do not get the double trigger set up however...it can not fire independent. So I suppose either or both triggers are same mechanism.
Beretta M9 Double Barrel.... 30 rounds.....2 Mags! 4 Inch wide Grip!
Definitely not for the small handed people....LOL

I actually think it's kinda neat... It'll probably be several times outside of my price range and nothing more than a range toy, so I'll probably never wind up with one.
