Someone posted a video link about a year ago to a double that had a synthetic stock and a weird bullpup design that ejected through the butt plate. Does anyone recall what it was called or who made it?
Perhaps more knowledgeable viewers than I can help me with this question: is this rifle a pre- or post-war Holland? Cheers, Cal

I would love to see the video but my german is limited and I have no idea where on the website it may be.

I wonder if the rational/reason for the two barrels is that it uses the Gast Principle of having one bolt cock the other other mechanism?
I saw a twin barrel GSh-23 23mm cannon that operated this way once whose entire action was no bigger than an M2 50 cal with an ammo chute entering both sides of the receiver. It could supposedly fire 3600rpm and was a very interesting design to say the least. If it does work this way I wonder if the bolts moving in opposition to each other make it smoother in full auto? My German is too rusty!

Any ideas what calibers this comes in? What was this thing originally designed for?
Inquiring minds want to know!
