Silver Shadow Gilboa Snake

The Snake Rifle concept was developed by Silver Shadow to improve combat fire effectiveness by firing two rounds without the delay and recoil of a cycling mechanism. The Snake will allow faster traversing between multiple targets by enabling two rounds on target with each double, side-by-side trigger pull. Therefor minimizing time on target before moving to the next target. Based on the Gilboa AR platform, the snake has a wider upper and lower receivers to incorporate the two independent firing systems. The two parallel barrels are 3 cm apart from the bore center. The Lower part as well as the integrated stock is made from composite materials, thus making it lighter. The lighter weight is also due to the lack of a piston. The firing mode is double semi-automatic, with the method of operation direct impingement gas systems. Among its many benefits are the redundancy of having two mechanisms working at all times – giving a soldier double fire power, higher penetration due to tight grouping, and higher accuracy during penetration through hardened glass with the first round weakening the barrier.
