Silver Shadow has a double barreled AR-15, two barrels that are fired simultaneously, essentially double tapping on a single trigger pull.

First, yes/cool/want OR no/horrible/no way ??? Comments?
Second, I would not call it an automatic, in that it does not continue to fire until the mag is empty or the trigger is released. (although they do have a true full-auto version).
BUT, can it legally be called a semi-auto? Isn't semi-auto one round per trigger pull? Here you have two per pull.
I'm thinking that legally it would be a burst rifle (what's the correct term?), and since it is not one round per one trigger pull it would fall under ATF "permission slip required" rules.
Third, for states that have ammo mag restrictions, would this configuration design end-around the restrictions? I.e. if the restriction is on the number on rounds in the mag, here you could have 2 separate mags at 10 rounds each for 20 total, BUT if the restriction is on number of rounds in the firearm then you are back to five in each to total 10 and not go over.
Thoughts?
