I want one in .22LR. Cheaper to shoot.

If you hooked the crank to an electric motor it would be interesting. But probably illegal? You'd need bigger magazines as well.
Wouldn't you then have a variation of a scaled-down GAU-19 or a GE minigun?
But do you guys need me to need you?
There is a company that makes a small wheel mounted modern 9mm Gatlin gun... takes large Glock mags and operates on a true crank system with multiple rotating barrels. Saw one on display in WV and was overcome with a severe case of want.

There is (was?) a guy in the Ballmer area that makes (made?) full-size 45-70 "Bulldog" Gatling guns. My buddy Kenny White in Jefferson bought one, and built a full-size steel field carriage for it. The wooden wheels on the carriage are 55 inches high. Kenny passed away last year, and the gun was sold to a guy in St. James, MD.
Kenny told me when he bought it that he filled out a 4473 with the type of firearm shown as "other".
Colt contracted with the guy who made them, and they were sold by Colt (at a substantial mark-up) for several years. The guy who made the Gatlings also made the re-issue of the Colt 1908 automatic pistol in .380
I'm just trying to imagine the response at AGC if someone randomly started teeing off with a gatling gun on the 100 yard range.
