It seem like this project would be hard to realize, even if there maybe could be some solutions for it, i think i will left this idea for a while, since i have another concept of multishot singlebarrel, which i belive would work out much better in reality.

I though this first idea would be easy to make, since i basically just would need a very simple kind of barrel, but afterall i would need the cases etc to, so this new concept wouldn't be harder to make.

However, this is how the new single barrel concept works:

The magazine holds the chambers, pretty much like a revolver but without the revolver cylinder and revolving mechanism, and the magazine goes through the barrel from the side, and the chamber itself is inside the barrel, in that way i though the chamber wouldn't have to be that thick, since the barrel it fires from would make that extra thickness. (So the magazines could be compact)

To thin and i guess it would face the same problems as the cases, how thick does it need to be in order to not expand and get stuck in the "magazine hole"?

The tape function could be made different, without tape. I will come to that later, since the tape would be attached to the main barrel, my idea was that it would wrap itself up automatic, through the movement of the magazine, maybe it could be some trouble with that in practice.

In any case, the protection of the ignition holes will provent chainfire, and also protect the loads when stored.

As a mini-version, for some small caliber. I don't aim for something that small, even if it could be fun to have..

In this version, i skipped the tape and made the magazine holders/clips/stoppers do that function instead. I belive it will be superior in reality.

If the fire source is retained between the shots, you only would have to operate the magazine, so it would basically be a double-action.

Any thoughts about this new concept?
