Well? Thought I'd share, because it looks pretty interesting. The price tag is $50, cash and carry. Looks like a black powder percussion for very large game up close.

Duckfoot pistol. Kinda useless IMHO. NOT a big game anything, more for self defense. I can think of better self defense weapons then this. [like a big rock]

Close...

It's called a ducks foot pistol...it was for riot control.

Fuck it for $50 buy the damned thing and shoot it

Quoted:
Often called a "duck's foot" gun....a single pull of the trigger fires all three barrels.

Should you buy it? If it appears to be a quality made pistol and you like it, absolutely. Have you found something that will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams if you buy it now and sell to a collector?

No.


IIRC, it was designed for naval boarding parties and to repel borders.

Three for the price of one?  I wonder how it would do with all three barrels charged with buckshot?

Lets test your theory:

You stand in front of it and I pull the trigger...

Could this count as a machine gun since it fires more than one round per trigger pull?

I think it's protected as being a "Curio or Relic" or something to that affect.

Still won't matter if you're standing in front of it when someone pulls the trigger.

I don't think so, because it's not a cartridge firearm.

It's a muzzle loader, not many regulations of them. You can even ship them through the mail and no one needs to be a FFL type.
Maybe take it to a three gun match, as long as the first three targets are in the right spot you can set a record time!

No, it doesn't fall under the definition of "firearm" since it doesn't use fixed ammunition and cannot be easily converted to use fixed ammunition.
