So when were they invented? When they were invented, did they still have to clean the barrel after every shot or every magazine? Or did they just insert the bullets and shoot? By the way, I mean when you put multiple bullets in at once, not when you put one bullet per shot. thanks.
Well, one of the first firearms ever made was a multiple-barreled gun called a Ribauldequin, built in 1339 by Edward III in the Hundred Years War. Is that what you're asking?
