Not a revolver or auto.
Found a pistol that I had wanted for a very long time, a Sharps four barrel. This pocket gun fires four times by rotating the firing pin each time it is cocked. A clever design in 1859 and this replica was made between 1963-1968 and is a good copy of the model 1a chambered for 22 short.

I believe those were made by Uberti. They are nice guns and well-made. Now you need to find a Svendsen "Four Aces." They are much smaller.

Sharps made them up to .30 and .32 Long rimfire.
Mossberg carried on the 4 barrel layout with the Brownie. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/...-1919-brownie/ And much later there was the COP which I found to be a hard kicker. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/gu...ringer-pistol/ |

Very cool
Seems like some folks forget there are more than revolvers and semi auto pistols available. One of the best things about this obsession is the incredible variety. Contenders are fun, as are bolt action hand cannons.
