In the Sharpe series, Patrick Harper wields the Volley Gun, having acquired it throughout his time in the Peninsular War and India. Due to his strong build, he can fire the weapon without the recoil injuring him. The Volley Gun first appears in Sharpe's Gold and becomes Harper's signature weapon. The Volley Gun seen in the Sharpe TV series was actually a reproduction model that was reduced in size, weight and calibre by around 30%. It was fully functional and apparently "a very powerful weapon".

  • In the Sharpe series, Patrick Harper wields the Volley Gun, having acquired it throughout his time in the Peninsular War and India. Due to his strong build, he can fire the weapon without the recoil injuring him. The Volley Gun first appears in Sharpe's Gold and becomes Harper's signature weapon. In Sharpe's Company, Obadiah Hakeswill temporarily confiscated the weapon from Harper and took it for himself, claiming it was only fit for an officer. Hakeswill used the weapon later in the episode in an attempt to kill Sharpe amidst the confusion of a night battle, but he missed, killing a young boy instead. Sharpe later acquires the weapon and, noticing that it was carelessly left loaded and rammed, threatens Hakeswill with it before giving it back to Harper. Later on, Harper attempts to kill Hakeswill with the gun from the window of a building, but only manages to wound him. The Volley Gun seen in the Sharpe TV series was actually a reproduction model that was reduced in size, weight and calibre by around 30%. It was fully functional and apparently "a very powerful weapon".
