Start with your typical pistol, say an alloy frame M1911. Now mold in a second pistol upside down but sharing the same grip. Make the grip-housed magazine a double-stack but with each stack feeding the other pistol, so two cavities, springs and followers. Gang the trigger of the top action to that of
the bottom one, through the grip.
When the trigger is squeezed (squoze?) both mechanisms fire simultaneously, sending out twin projectiles. The barrels are angled slightly to meet at a particular distance such that the target, a felon with any luck, standing closer or further than that distance would receive two injuries.
Loading would involve decoupling the upper pistol/grip assembly from the mirror image unit below so that the thin magazines could be removed and replaced.
Pretty sure the annoying barrel flip we deal with today would be canceled out.

Those, meaning your anno of the existence of volley handguns and your link to the Thunderstruck handgun. |

I'd been studying the barrel flip reaction and how one might cancel it out. Still working on it. |

I've never ganged a trigger. What's that like? |

I was thinking of a gun with twin barrels spread widely apart in the peace sign, so your warning shot hits the ground or volleys over their head. |
