Gatling gun, anyone?

[Mr. Ed]

Just came across a youtube video for Tipmann firearms, offering some interesting non-NFA hand crank gatling guns. $4,500 - $5,600 Looks like .22 up to 9mm. Here's a link: https://tippmannordnance.com/shop-all/
in .22

and a little bigger:

I knew they had 9mm but was unfamiliar with the .22lr

Yours truly shooting a friend’s Tippmann in 9mm. Pretty cool, but the novelty wore off pretty quickly.
I didn’t shoot it in this position, I was just posing for the picture

I was in J&K Pawn 2 weeks ago, He had one on a tripod. I was looking at other stuff and forgot to ask him about it.
There was a guy on GunBroker sells them. I think he's in NY. I thought about it.
There's a category for them on Guns International. There's a couple small companies that make Gatling guns to original spec. sort of, full, 1/2 and 3/4 scale in a variety of calibers. I've seen blue prints for sale with original specs.

That should be a hot item in Baltimore City. Set it up in the back of a pickup truck for a drive by.

I have one in 9mm. It is a hoot, but a good way to burn through ammo quickly. You can unlock it and walk the line of fire across a line of water filled plastic bottles... which is just all kinds of fun.

Their used to be a Tipmann 22 belt fed at Select fire. It used a cloth belt.

Is there a IWB holster available for the 9?

I’m planning a trip soon to Washington National Cemetery and Cedar Hill Cemetery in Suitland to see some family graves. Will also drive by the remnants of Dino’s restaurant in Suitland that good friends once owned.

I just carry mine appendix style... nobody suspects.

Kind of neat. If I had FU money I'd buy one. Then again, I'd probably buy a real FA instead (in addition?)

If they made one in 5.56 that took regular belts, that would be cool.

Looking at them, the failing I see is they look like a PITA to shoot. I get recoil, but I think they would have been better off making the mount something that could make up with a 1919 tripod. It is cute, but seems like you'd basically need to shoot it from a bench.
