Mr. James Puckle (no, did not make that up) in 1718. It was a cannon with a revolving breech. Do a computer search for "Puckle Gun" and enjoy.

You will have to be more specific.
First of all describe the gun. Is it a revolver, or a shotgun? A revolver has a grip but so does a shotgun (actually a for end).
Never!, Samuel Colt did not ivent the first gun. He improved it and popularized the revolver.
well the Chinese made gun powder and made a gun much like a musket ( not known specifically who is known). but in the late 1800's a man named Oliver Winchester made the modern gun called the Winchester rifle, but if ur woundering about handguns it was the colt revolver made by samual colt.
A good candidate may be the Starr Model 1858. This was a ball and cap revolver. With cartridge firearms, Forehand & Wadsworth made a .32 revolver inn what we would today recognize as a "double action: revolver. However, there were earlier "double action only" pepper box pistols.
You are probably thinking of an externally powered machine gun, such as the 25mm autocannon on the M3 Bradley. However, manually powered chain guns, such as the Josselyn Revolver were patented in 1866.
