Looks to me like a visionary is planning for the day when the Democrats succeed in outlawing semi-auto firearms of any type, aimed at the semi-auto crowd. And is not that a sad commentary on American politics and the Jack-Off Partei?
If that's the case, bring back the belt/chain fed revolver concept. It was all the rage from the 18th Century to the late 19th, and the Russians, Belgians and Austrians kept trying to do belt fed handguns into the 20th Century.
It would be like that old commercial for Encore Westerns from when the network first came out, "See John Wayne and his trusty six...eight...14..See John Wayne and his trusty 36 shooter."
