"The Claxton Gun: Invented in 1868 by Colonel Claxton, an English officer, after he had seen the Gatling. It consists of 8, 10, or 30 barrels, to be fired in pairs by the action of a reciprocating motion, or rocking lever. A few of these guns saw service with the army of General Faidherbe in the Franco-German war, but the record they made was not greatly to their credit" (журнал за 1881 год)
