“After the IWA show in Nuremburg, Germany, we realized there was a high demand for multi-barreled pistols like the Arsenal Second Century 2011,” said Clarence Koalapee, PR Spokesperson for Kel-Tec. “George was looking at the monstrosity and was like ‘Hell, if they can do two, why can’t we do three?’ We came back to the states, got right down to work on a prototype. It’s a little rough around the edges, which means it’s practically ready for production!”

Stupidity is spreading faster than the plague apparently...

We need to stop the designer's, first the tacti-cool levergun, then a double-barrel 1911, now the triple barrel kel-tec, what the hell is next???

That's strangely arousing...., did I mention I liked that chick in Toatal Recall...

A 3 barrel Kel-Tec, I got no problems with - double barrel 1911, is just offensive.


I guess Red Jacket is doing a lot of consultation work these days.

I'll take her- could be interesting. As far as multi-barrels, the Gatling, Derringer, and old style hammer type double barreled shotguns are the shiz.
A double 1911 or tri Kel-tec is a novelty, they would undoubtedly be fun, but not practical. What if one chamber FTF's? Or FTE's? That's a complicated clearing process, IMO.

It'll be interesting to see what the ATF see's it as (like the abomination of a 1911), a semi-auto, or a "machine pistol" since your letting three loose with every pull of the trigger.

Kel-Tec CEO George Kellgren was quoted as saying “Let them [censored] over at Ruger copy this mother [censored].” Ruger responded by announcing a recall of its soon to be produced LCPPP.

Following the present pattern I would expect eventually a modernized version of the old pepperbox revolvers. Except, of course, that these latest firearms are multiple projectiles per singular trigger pull, whereas the antiques were still sensible semi-automatics.

GnLaFrance occassionally has 63-shot revolvers for sale.

He prefers that you PM him for details.

I don't know what's worse, the joke, or that some of you didn't get it.

Certainly it's a joke, but I thought it a decent spoof after the news about the double-1911. Now, if it had been released a couple weeks later it would be time appropriate as well.

+10000. It was a hilarious read though... just as hilarious as reading people getting worked up about it here
