First Learnings and (believed to be) Original Ideas are dangerous in that people tend to cling to them, even when they are shown to be false. Very few ideas are actually original. One should try to go forward with an idea that has not worked in the past only if one can show changes/advances in design, materials, use conditions, or social acceptance. Three barreled guns have been around a long time in a lot of configurations and only the drilling (SXS shotgun over a rifle barrel) has gained any particular acceptance. I don't see any changes to suggest acceptance of this design.
