GATLING GUN - THREAD INTEREST ITEM

[Gil Boyd]

I have always been fascinated in the Gatling gun and just how advanced it was for its time.
It certainly led to innovations 100 years later like the Chain gun and C130 gunships used quite commonly these days and still no stoppages.
When you look at the fine engineering that went into the Gatling Gun is was so far ahead of its time and a game changer.
Has anybody got one on the site?

Here is an American video on the system which leads quite nicely onto the Minigun at the end:
