More model informationDuck Foot Pistol… When you absolutely, positively got to kill every mutineer on the ship deck.
These “duck foot” pistols have long fascinated gun collectors. In this example, four cannon shaped barrels numbered 1-4 at the breech fire simultaneously when the trigger is pulled. If you aimed straight at a single man in front of you at more than close quarters, you might very well miss entirely, but aim at a group of mutineers, rioting prisoners, or a mob, and you very well could hit four people with a single trigger pull. The array of barrels itself might also dissuade would be attackers. This example was manufactured in the early 19th century.
