My favourites in movies would be Eastwood's 1905 modified Ross rifle in
Joe Kidd, or rather his use of it...Mauser in Great Silence and moreover
the long barrelled Remington of Angel Eyes...

So? It's in a movie, it looks cool, "we want one like that".
Especially the ones which fire a zillion shots without having to
reload. (After the shootout defending their claim from the bad guys,
so many shots had been fired, the first six months, all they mined was
lead!"

There are actual guns that do that. One model of the M3 greasegun and a
model of the M16 which bends in the middle and has optics that can see
around corners without the shooter having to expose himself.

Let's see if I have this healthcare thingy right. Congress is to pass
a plan written by a committee whose head has said he doesn't understand
it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, signed by a president who
hasn't read it, with funding administered by a Treasury chief who didn't
pay his taxes because he didn't understand TurboTax, overseen by an obese
Surgeon General and financed by a country that's nearly broke.

Not really a shotgun (which is a smoothbore long arm that fires shot)
but a "pepperbox" carbine in which each barrel is loaded with a single
bullet buy fired from a common primer.
Sorry, don't mean to be pedantic.
Speaking of "The Alamo," a number of prop guns from the production
came up for sale a few years ago, They were Remington rolling block
rifles (circa 1897) with prop flintlocks attached. The Mexican Army in
1836 was largely armed with surplus Brown Bess muskets (veterans of
Waterloo), purchased from the British, who had moved on to their first
general issue rifle muskets by then.

They don't shoot around corners. They're placed around a corner.

Yep, that may be the one I was thinking of as a modified M16, or more
correctly, an M4.

The M3 Greasegun model even had a curved barrel. It fired .45ACP rounds.
I had to guard gates with one that had a straight barrel but I have fired
the curved barrel model. It wasn't very accurate but then it was a sub
machine gun.

It was a complete failure. The barrel wouldn't last a whole day of use.

And the silly gun George Raft uses in CASINO ROYALE: "This gun shoots
backwards! I've just killed myself!"
Guns shooting around corners were pretty common in early comedies. I
remember Roscoe Arbuckle bending his gun barrel around a corner to shoot Al
St. John in MOONSHINE.

It didn't come across as pedantic at all. Thanks for the information. I'd
always wondered about that weapon. Now I know. Were they at all common?

You mean seven parallel rifles that all fired at once? That sounds
statistically counter-productive... (and shoulder-pulverizing...)

It was used in WW II though. Now we have a personal gun system where the gun
sight is a video camera and the user can use it to look around corners, over
barriers without exposing himself and whatever he fires at that's in the
camera's crosshairs dies.

Yep. It was an actual volley weapon called a "Nock Gun". It fires seven
,52 caliber balls at once.

It did but not as a support gun. It was to be used in specific
circumstances. Hell the straight barreled M3 was not a paragon of
endurance.

It was used in news reels and pretty much nowhere else. I doubt any soldier
four months out of training would consider the weight worth it for a gun that
would quickly self destruct.

Yes. Newsreels.
Mr. Apol
Pepperboxes were quite common as handguns up to the Civil War. (Ethan
Allen was a famous maker of pepperbox pistols). The handguns usually
rotated on a center arbor to bring a loaded barrel to the flint or
percussion hammer. Sometimes they were turned by hand, sometimes they
were double action--pulling the trigger rotated the barrel cluster,
cocked the hammer, and fired. These guns were made obsolete by the
perfection of the true revolver. The carbine Widmark uses is a volley
gun, where all the barrels fire at once.
Long-arm volley guns like Widmark's were most commonly used on ships.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nock_gun. I notice the Alamo gun
barrels are fairly small caliber--probably around .32 each--which
reduced recoil compared to the big bore flintlock versions.
My favorite volley run was the Requa battery, a horizontal arrangement
of rifle barrels mounted on a cannon carriage. It was used early in
the Civil War. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volley_gun

As a laughable, but regrettable instance I once witnessed a fellow shooter
let his .44 cap and ball revolver fire five cylinders at once.
He had not sealed the front of the loaded chambers, thus turning his repro
revolver into a "volley gun".
He was told to never return to our range.
