Man, I do like the way those Gatlings look.  Absolutely gorgeous.  At the gun club I belonged to in Wisconsin, we used to have a family fun day...one of the guys had a Gatling he brought out...I never knew it was worth $25-35K!  yOWZA


I kinda think of my new Browning 1919 as a single barrel gatling...once I get the Crakfire on it.  Now, unfortunately PegLeg has got me thinking of the $$/second it will run.  Lessee...at $0.20 a round (reloads), 400 rounds a minute...that's $1.33.  Well...not quite $25/sec but still...






Thank goodness I reload and have about 5000 rounds of components for .308

 It's only reproductions that go for $35 - 45 Thousand. A gun store I used to go to had an ORIGINAL, on an artillery limber, dated 1903 in 30-40 Krag  $350,000

I'm glad the Ten Commandments only says we can't covet another man's wife.   :P  'cause I really want one of those

Some versions on the Ten Commandments do include:


Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors good.


So, better double check to be sure you are in the clear =)

I want to leave it in the yard to scare the crap outta the neighbors for when I tell the neighbor kids to get the hell off my lawn.....and, if it can't fire, I won't be inclined to burn up my life-savings trying to feed it.

 ;D


Fixed it for ya, Chuck!!   ;D

Gatling gun: $35k
Daisey Red Ryder BB Gun: $75

So KPR those 5000 rounds are about 12.5 minutes of fun at 400 rounds per minute? 

Has anyone ever seen one of these in action?  How did it work?
