So yeah, it's one "normal" firing followed by two slam fires with the gas routed to actuate the modified bolts in succession.

I wonder what the out of battery rate was in testing?

Experimental rifle Tromix Trimese-16 (USA)

February 18, 2016

The American arms company Tromix Lead Delivery Systems is primarily known as a manufacturer of ammunition and spare parts for small arms. In addition, several years ago, she became famous for her "double" rifle Siamese M16 ("Siamese M16"). This weapon was created in an experimental order and did not go into series, however it attracted the attention of shooters and weapons lovers from all over the world. Having checked the original rifle, the company-developer continued production of other serial products of less daring design. However, the development of pilot projects did not stop.

Despite the absence of any real prospects, Tromix specialists headed by its head Tony Rumor continued to develop the original idea. In the new project it was planned to connect not two but three rifles of the AR15 / M16 family at once. This version of the "Siamese rifle" should be based on the ideas of the basic project Siamese M16 and differ in some features directly related to the number of basic rifles. The result of the works, started after the development of Siamese M16, was the appearance of an even more unusual and non-standard project. The new development is called Trimese-16, which combines information on the number and type of basic rifles, as well as hinting at the origin of the Siamese M16.

Again it was suggested to take several serial rifles based on the AR15 platform and connect them with each other with several new parts. As in the previous project, a set of fasteners was provided to ensure the correct mutual position of the weapon, as well as several details for combining the mechanisms of the rifles. Thus, like its predecessor, the "triple" rifle should have separate mechanisms of automation, etc., as well as the originally connected gas engines
