    I like the way the hopper doubles as a smokestack.

    Is that .58 caliber, with chargers loaded with powder, minie balls, and musket caps? Six barrels?

    Must be fun to clean: that's the kid's job, right?

    I had the opportunity to shoot this awesome Gatling gun last year at Myrtle Grove, if I remember right the cartridges are in fact little reloadable .50 caliber black powder barrels with a small hole in one end for the percussion cap.
    It's the coolest thing I've ever had the chance to shoot, thanks again Epps1919! Nice video!
