I think it would be a joke in a combat situation or even a practical match.

Imagine a jam.

 

2 rounds with one pull of a single trigger? That may be considered full auto by the law makers. Hell, I dunno.

 

Just saying

Just like the Desert Eagle, will be a heck of a prop gun for a movie!

[Slowhand Bob, 24229]

I like it, for those occasions where one shot just wont get the job done. Just think of all the range hours wasted learning to do the double tap, and right here was the solution! Just think, load two of the 230gr +Ps on top and go Grizzler hunting. Onr other great advantage, when the range gets a bit further one can just about take out the hostage and the perp with one shot

It has two seperate triggers - but the slide is one piece so I guess if you pull only one trigger you eject a live round along with the spent casing.

Not great on my reading skills BUT I think the trigger options are double tap only?? The options seem to be double triggers with a single sear or double triggers staked together. You will have to read it at the bottom of the description page and let me know if I am interpreting this correctly.

 

Two more pluses and I'm sure there are more. Shoot the both guns from the hands of a gunfighter at one time. With this one you can take both legs out from under a zombie with one pull of the trigger, don't you hate seeing them slide one leg along all the time?

Yup...

 

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

This will be in a Steven Segal movie by the years' end!

I dunno. Segal's getting kind of "long in the tooth."

 

Maybe Ashley Judd.

Dang, this is what? the ninth string or so started on this gimmick gun and each OP thinks he is the first one to start a thread on it.

 

I don't get all the hub-bub. It cannot be made to work right due to the laws of physics. Jammamatic. Would be prohibitively expensive and ungainly.

 

Nor will the ATF ever allow it to be imported. You will never see one in gun shop on this side of the pond.

 

But it is a good zombie. It keeps getting resurrected over and over in at least one new thread every day, day after day.

I'll take one for each hand. Made me think of shooting Gunzilla's contraption at CAC 2011.

I LIKE it. Any idea what the price is? I wonder.

[Slowhand Bob, 24229]

Dave, you know the rule concerning 'if you have to ask'. Lets try for one more positive thought on this big boy, "Double your pleasure, double your fun with a double hit, double hit, double hit gun! Now to go make a Wild Bunch holster that will fit it.

Press Release – For Immediate Release

Nurnberg – Friday, March the 9th – IWA 2012

Arsenal Firearms launches the AF2011-A1 Double Barrel Pistol

Arsenal Firearms, the brand new group of companies established during 2010 and

officially debuting at IWA 2012 on March the 9th, proudly announces the first production

double barrel semiautomatic pistol in history.

Named AF2011-A1 “Second Century” (reading “Twentyeleven”) as a true

commemoration of the legendary Colt 1911, this extraordinary pistol not only adds a

second barrel to the the second century life of a myth: it actually opens a whole new world

of pistol shooting capabilities and opportunity, both for the collector, the sports shooter and

the hunter.

The AF2011-A1 couldn’t initially be offered in any other calibre but the legendary and

original .45 ACP: and so it is, a powerful double, simultaneous .45 bullets shooting pistol

capable of incredible stopping power, accuracy and target performance.

Later in 2012, Arsenal Firearms will offer the AF2011-A1 Second Century also chambered

for the powerful and flat-shooting .38 Super Auto, as well as a combination of the two

calibres: this mix-calibre pistol, already undergoing intensive testing, will also break new

barriers and offer to the self defence shooter or the hunter an unprecedented opportunity

of a high penetrating and powerful stopper at each pull of the trigger.

A long slide, compensated and ported version of the AF2011-A1 Second Century pistol is

also in the works and will be launched during 2013: this edition of the pistol is designed

more with the sport shooter and the hunter in mind and will not follow the commemorative

“A1” lines of the Second Century edition.

 

Here are tech specs that will straighten out the trigger/sear combinations, including a model with one 45 barrel and one 38 super barrel! (why?)

 

 

AF2011-a1 double barrel PiStol

The AF2011-A1 Double Barrel Pistol comes actually as the very first industrial double barrel semiautomatic pistol of all times. The original idea came about ten years back to Swiss armourer Vivian Mueller, who at the time experienced cutting and welding together multiple parts of the famous Sig P210: the result was a long slide, double barrel 9mm, highly decorated collector piece, which indeed shot very well. Our idea took the challenge further: to commemorate the legendary Colt 1911-A1 in the Centenary by making a true industrial market-ready double barrel .45 caliber pistol. We achieved success in the brief span of 6 months, after intense and round-the-clock 3D designing, stereolithographic modeling and parts machining. The gun can be handled by any shooter able to shoot with a .45 Acp and it is not only very pleasing, but very accurate and great fun. The AF2011-A1 holds amazing and surprising target performance for the shooter: in fact, it will group all the 8 double .45 caliber rounds (16 bullets) held in the duplex, single columns magazines, in a target of the size of an orange at 15 yards and of a water melon at 25. The stopping power of the AF2011-A1 is tremendous: 2 bullets for a total of 460 Grains weight impacting at 1 to 2 inches apart (depending on the distance of the target) will knock down a bull, while the whole 18 bullets, for a payload exceeding 4000 Grains, can be delivered to the target in about 3 seconds. The AF2011-A1 obviously features a number of very special parts, such as the single slide, the single frame, the single spur double hammer, the single grip safety, the single body double mainspring housing and the single double cavity magazine floor plate, the long and double magazine latch, the special barrel bushings and the hold open lever and side lever safety with long shafts: but the most interesting feature of the new pistol which we strived to keep during the development of the project, is the interchangeability of most internal parts, which come as standard 1911 replacement parts. These include the firing pins, the firing pins plates, the sears groups, the triple springs, the inner parts of the mainspring housings, the recoil springs and recoil springs rods, the magazine bodies and inner parts, the sights (including after market adjustable sights) the grips and grips screws and bushings. 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. The AF2011-A1 is available in mirror finish Deep Blue or with a 3400 Vickers surface hardness White Ash Nitrite coating.

Nurnberg – Friday, March the 9th – IWA 2012

Arsenal Firearms launches the new Strike One pistol

Arsenal Firearms, the brand new group of companies established during 2010 and officially

debuting at IWA 2012 on March the 9th, proudly announces the production of a revolutionary,

brand new semiautomatic pistol, designed for full-fledged Military and Law Enforcement service,

civilian self-defence and sport performance alike.

Named AF-1 “Strike One” as the first of a number of “strikes” that the company is forecasting for

the international market, the pistol has already filed 3 independent and revolutionary International

Patents: the in-line barrel Locking System, the single trigger arch Automatic Trigger Safety and

the Ambidextrous Magazine Release.

The new semiautomatic pistol introduces and claims for a number of innovations and practical use

advantages: it actually comes as the lowest barrel axle-to-hand grip value in history (12mm)

unprecedented terminal ballistic accuracy due to the fully guided, non-tilting barrel locking system,

extraordinary semiautomatic rate of fire, due to the lightning-fast locking time and single action

short travel trigger system and finally an equally unprecedented operational control, thanks to the

miniskirt magazine well, the high hand grip feature and the expansion of the gun system through

the implementation of a family of accessories, such as the LRC (Long Range Conversion).

The Strike One will be manufactured with a reinforced polymer frame and with an Ergal (light alloy)

frame, both offered in Ordnance Black, Desert Tan and Olive Drab colours as standard. A number

of high durability Electrocolours will also be made available for the Ergal framed Strike One Sport

Edition, targeting the Production IPSC international shooting category. The Strike One Sport

Edition will also be offered with LPA adjustable rear sight.

Later in the year, the Strike Combat will also be launched, a compact, shorter version of the full

size pistol, holding 13 rounds in the magazine instead of 17 (9mm).

Currently, the Strike One is offered in the calibres 9x19 Parabellum, 9x21 IMI, .40 Smith & Wesson

and .357 SIG.

For a full chart of the technical specification, the LRC Short and Long conversions and finishes
