http://gilboa-rifle.com/Gilboa-Firearms/Snake/The Gilboa® Snake was designed to deliver twice the firepower in any caliber. The features of the Gilboa® Snake enable operators to accurately deliver two rounds into a target without the delay of cycling and the felt recoil which make “double taps” difficult to group. The Gilboa® Snake will allow faster traversing between multiple targets by delivering two rounds with each trigger pull.
