Key differences lie in barrel rifling (SSR's rifled barrels offer extended range over the DP12's smoothbore) and firing modes (SSR's simultaneous volley fire vs. DP12's individual barrel discharge). The SSR is positioned for longer ranges and simultaneous payload, while the DP12 excels at close-range stopping power.

This review details a magnificent 14-barrel flintlock rifle by Dupe & Co., owned by Colonel Thomas Thornton.

Unlike military volley guns, its seven rifled barrels fired simultaneously, offering tight groupings of approximately 20 inches at 100 yards. It featured a modified rolling block action and a seven-round cartridge plate for rapid loading and firing.
