Which guns can fire multiple bullets per shot instead of one?
Shinjojin
Well, there are a few possible answers here-
SHOTGUNS fire multiple small pellets at once, instead of one solid projectile
MACHINE GUNS- fire more than one cartridge per pull of the trigger- but one after the other
VOLLEY GUNS- prior to machine guns, had multiple barrels- one trigger pull fired them all at once
Any gun when loaded with a cartridge that hold more than one projectile (that is the bullet) will fire more than one bullet per shot- these were sometimes called DUPLEX cartridges.
