He is probably best known on the internet for his 7-barreled volley gun (which fires all seven charges simultaneously), intended for naval ship boarding operations. This particular gun resembled that volley gun design, but is actually a self-priming flintlock pepperbox. Its cluster of 6 barrels is manually rotated, allowing the used to fire six separate shots before needing to reload. The priming mechanism and lock bear a remarkable similarity to the Collier repeating flintlocks, and it is suspected that this system was developed by Artemis Wheeler of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Related:<\/p>\n<p>Collier Revolving Flintlocks: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=i9Km5KaeO7I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=i9Km5KaeO7I<\/a><br \/>\nFerguson Breechloading Flintlock: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5ODhQmE2OqY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5ODhQmE2OqY<\/a><br \/>\nInterview with Jonathan Ferguson: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dhRoaISinwA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dhRoaISinwA<\/a><br \/>\nAllen &#038; Thurber Pepperbox: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rnirpFYdqrs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rnirpFYdqrs<\/a><br \/>\nGirardoni Combat Air Rifle: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2dZLeEUE940\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2dZLeEUE940<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sold for $40,250.
