WTH is this thing?

He's talking about this gun: https://www.google.com/amp/s/stdgun.com/amp/s333-thunderstruck/

It's a volley gun (2 shots per trigger pull feom 2 separate barrels in this case) and it's perfectly legal. There's a double-barrel AR that operates on the same concept.

I think people get confused by the "one trigger pull" idea. Volley guns have multiple barrels but only one trigger. They then produce one function PER BARREL when the trigger is activated. At least that's the most boiled-down way I can think to explain it.

Yup, that's the one.

French used volley rifles for long range wing shooting.
Figured the group carried further than a shotgun.

Auto ejecting revolver with a grip panel box magazine?

Landstad 1900 Automatic Revolver
What makes this design really unusual is that it uses both a revolving cylinder and a box magazine (a bit like a Dardick, actually). The magazine – which doubled as the left grip panel – held six rounds of 7.5mm Nagant ammunition (a common caliber in that time and place). The top rear of the action contains a slide that comes back with each shot:

World’s First Full-Auto Firearm was an 1855 Percussion Revolving Rifle ?!

This American revolving rifle is designed by Ralph Mershon and Jehu Hollingsworth. It is a percussion firearm and it is reportedly a select fire one with full-auto fire capability/mode! After loading the ​

cylinder​

, the shooter had to wind up the built-in spring which would cycle the action (rotate the cylinder, cock the hammer and fire).
