With a total of 40 shots the French Invented Guycot Chain Pistol was quite ahead of it’s time. Very impressive thinking on their part.
If you compare that to the modern day Glock17 9mm pistol(or my Baretta DAO with 16) with 17 rounds or less. This blast from the past gun is pretty awesome to have and it sure outclass the modern pistol in firepower. There was also a Guycot rifle which holds 80 cartridges.
Compared to their competitors during that era, the Colt revolver (holds 6 cartridges ala my .357 Python) and the Henry rifle (which can only hold 16 cartridges Ala my own in .44), the Guycot pistol and rifle have a huge advantage in capacity. However, they never really caught on
