    I can find no googley/bingy resemblance to that. But the idea of it, like this giant steering wheel attached to my crotch, is driving me nuts.

        duck footed volley gun

        A few hand-held volley guns were also developed during the 18th and 19th centuries. One of the most distinctive was the “duck’s foot” volley gun, a pistol with multiple barrels arranged in a splayed pattern, so that the firer could spray a sizable area with a single shot.[7] The principle behind this type of pistol is one of confrontation by one person against a group; hence, it was popular among bank guards, prison wardens and sea captains in the early 19th century.

        Well done, Captain my Captain!

          So just don’t worry about the bank customers, or what?
