It probably takes 15 minutes to reload lol
I'm counting 10?
- There are 10 more accompanying short barrels nearer the stock.
  
  Thank you. I thought it might be something like that but missed it in the one pic, but it is obvious there.
Seems like that is what those TWWH Empire guns are based on:
"Damn that Giuseppe! As soon as I make a 19 barrel gun, what does he do? The nerve of that man!"
The recoil makes you leap 50 years backwards
What is the benefit of 20 barrels vs 20 chambers and 1 barrel?
- Not shooting your off hand with the chambers not lined up with the barrel. Black powder is a bitch.
  
  Ah right, black powder
