Double Barrel AR-15 – the Snake
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 12/5/2017 | L Brien

Posted on 12/05/2017 9:29:49 AM PST by w1n1

Chambered in .223 Rem./5.56 NATO, the Snake SBR was created by Armos Gulan from Israel. The reason for such an extreme design lies in the challenge that the Israeli tactical team had face while encountered in their missions.

That is the “window of opportunity” to lay down more lead towards a target within that milisecond. For instances some scenario such as spotting a target crossing a path or goes through a window.

So how do you deliver the maximum amount of fire power at that instances? Use the “Snake”, this was the main reason for its creation.

This AR incorporates two bolt carriers and dual 9.5-inch barrels with 1:7 twist. It fires from a proprietary piston-driven system and feeds from standard AR-15 magazines. Ambidextrous manipulation of the safety selector, magazine release and charging handle is possible from either side of the receiver. See the full footage of this double barrel AR-15 Snake video here.

Other than the tweaking liberals factor, not sure why.

What it means is that it’s good Israel is on our side. If the muxxiez want to challenge that I say go ahead.

Too heavy, too complicated.

Seems like the stated objective of this weapon is already achievable via 3-round burst.

Why not just use 7.62x51; it’s kind of a proven stopper? I’d think this would negate the weight/recoil disadvantage over .556 but what do I know?

It looks like two magazines, so double the load is nice. Although, more than likely, half the dispense time, too.

But, if they can call a Bump-fire stock a machine gun, they could EASILY call this a machine gun, since the plain text of the LAW no longer matters.

You want a lot of lead going into a target, use 12 gauge.
