Pieper's 7-Barrel Mitrailleuse: Like a Shotgun But Accurate
This video explores Pieper's 7-barrel Mitrailleuse, a unique rimfire volley gun manufactured in the late 19th century. Designed for professional hunters, it offered an alternative to punt guns for waterfowl. The Mitrailleuse fired seven rifled bullets simultaneously with a single trigger pull, providing improved accuracy over buckshot at extended ranges. It was available in both .22 rimfire and .32 rimfire calibers, aiming to deliver a more precise volley for hunting applications.
