Has anyone fired one? Was it any good or was it a POS? It was an interesting concept, I never got to handle one and I always kind of wanted one.

Didn't the lesbo chick in Matrix Reloaded have one when she shot that vampire?

Beretta makes a 4 barrel gun much nicer looking then that one its model PB4 but Im not sure if there available in the U.S or not.

The early COP varied wildly in quality from Ok to terrible.
The later guns didn't vary: They were junk.

Although it's not supposed to be possible, there are verified reports of COP's firing two or more barrels with one trigger squeeze.

The first appearance of the COP in the movies, was when Leon had his little "episode" at the beginning of "Bladerunner".

That COP was modified to fire two barrels at once for visual effect.

I've shot one. SOB in .357 made my hand hurt for 3-4 days. It may not have been too bad in .38 but anyone who shoots it in .357 should have their head examined, IMO.

Imagine the hole it would leave in you to get hit with all 4 barrels of .357 at once.

For some stupid reason I have always loved that gun. I have NO idea why...I have never even SEEN one in person. Possibly I am ill.

I wouldn't say you're ill....it's a neat idea but it seems the execution was lacking. It's sort of a scaled up Mossberg Brownie.

I have owned 3 of them and regretted every time I sold one. It's the coolest.

38 specials are cake to shoot. Mag are painfull.

The two I have handled were total and complete POS.

I saw one at a gunshow once. First time I saw one was at the end of the movie "Badboys". The badguy pulled one at the end of the movie but didn't get the chance to fire it.

BAH! If it can't fire all four barrels at once, then what is the point? Might as well have a snubby wheelgun. It would look pretty scary to be looking down the barrel(s) of one though.
