    So let me get this straight- in order to fire the gatling gun, you pull back the bolt, cock the cylinder and pump on the rifle, then pull the trigger. I agree. Very credible.

      The trigger isn’t labeled, so it’s actually just there for show. You slam-fire the round with the pump.

        How do you cock the cylinder with no trigger and no hammer? I’m not a big gun person, but…

      First you have to change out the ammo, since they put a magazine in, not a clip, but what the weapon actually uses is a belt.

    I assume the revolver cylinder matches the amount of barrels, and they spin in unison during fire.

      One goes clockwise and the other goes counterclockwise, it only fires when they line up

        Ingenious design - the firerate goes down as the cylinder gradually empties, so there are fewer rounds to line up with the active barrel. This makes you conserve ammo when you’re running low.

    I like that the bayonet and laser pointer are on the rotating part, too. Apparently that was my first impression because the rest of this seems pretty solid, really.

    I saw Clip and was expecting to see Silencers somewhere. I also love that the laser sight will rotate as you’re firing.

      Same as the bayonet. Should be one of each per barrel, tho

    @PugJesus clearly needs a tripod, just like its user

      Attached directly to the rotating barrels.

        The tripods are fixed to the ground, but whenever the gun is fired the entire assembly, including the user, rotates with the barrel.

      A terrible oversight on the designer’s part!

    This is just a Torgue design. It probably fires gyrojet ammo too.

    The whole thing should be built by Glock so that it can double as a hand grenade.
