A Modern Invoative Pepperbox - S333 Volleyfire (2017-2019)

This gun had a 6 round capacity of .25 ACP to be shot across three trigger pulls. It is the predecessor to the S333 Thunderstruck.

Some more pictures:

And it comes in pink or gold!

"Invoative"
- I'm sure the quality control is fine.
- Ironically it's an innovative way of spelling.
  
  Good lord, these guys are smoking more crack than Kel-Tec. Just look at the designs in their banner.

  I just realized how awful STD Gun sounds when you say it out loud. Someone should tell them.

  amazing. almost as funny as being shot with the clap
I don't know if I'd buy ~~a gun~~ anything from a company that can't spell innovative.
- I would also prefer my gun manufacturer to use the Oxford comma.
Wouldn't this count as a machine gun under US law? Law states that a firearm can only fire one bullet per action of the trigger so if it's firing two bullets per pull, then that would technically classify it as a machine gun would it not?
- Tldr: it's kosher because it's out of two barrels.
- Binary triggers are a thing, and fire one bullet on pull, and one more on reset. They're in a legal grey zone now as well, but pre-2022? they were seen as the best way around that law.
  
  In the last slide it says "Two shots One pull" so I'm assuming it's not a binary trigger but I could see these guns using them to skirt around the machine gun laws like you said.
Why stop at two? Stop home intruders with one go-big-or-go-home 6 shot volley.
- You kinda nailed the reason why when you said "intruders". Cos you're right, there could be more than one so you might need another shot.
Looks like it would be a pretty nice clutch piece for when you're limited in size choices, but don't want to deal with a derringer type of gun.
Kinda dubious about the durability, but what do i know?
- I mean, look at the girth of it. That is a wide boi.
  If for some bizarre reason the normal subcompacts like LCPs aren't enough, the Beretta Tomcat exists. It holds more rounds in a bigger cartridge and is made by a company people have actually heard of.
  The idea of a pepperbox in 2017 is selling to people who either know its dumb and want the novelty, or people who grew up in Luddite households and think automatics jam at the drop of a hat.
  I think there's a reason this one was forgotten.
I'm assuming it won't fire 6 at a time because it just snaps your wrist like a twig if you do 😂
If you haven't fired a pistol before accuracy (particularly over range), not stopping power is the biggest issue so this is like a two neck guitar.
Perfectly idiotic and I love it!
