why not have it like a cloud but instead of one barrel just have it rotateing for coolness.

I just like the authenticity of a real functioning replica gatling gun.

also in the mag instead of just haveing them gravity fed you can atach hose from the chamber to the mag so air pushes them down into the barrel.

I have already built the gun and it doesn't work so well, just because the feeding mechinism sucks. The barrels rotate well with the crank made of lego gears, but the gun jams constanty with the magazine on it.

I can think of a way to possibly keep it from jamming. I'm at work right now but when I get home I'll see if I can't draw something up.

first reply to the thread:
There had been a similar proposal on spudtech, the design was a cloud BBMG with a barrel opening that led to several rotating barrels.

OK so attempts at drawing my idea failed miserably due to my broken hand. Pissant. It is a rather complicated idea anyhow and woulkd be difficult to actually produce with any reliability.
