Why shouldn't I

>>33054764
you should

Cause feeding it with .45-70 is gonna be really fuckin expensive

But if you can afford it do it

>>33054807
You're right

Do they have anything that takes smaller ammo

>>33054764
Only $7.99 for shipping, Great find

>>33054764
Because it would be vastly more practical and cheaper to buy the semi auto SAW they make now and throw a crank on it. Would be less than a fifth of the price and you can feed belts through it.

>>33054764
Buy a house instead.

Pretending i could afford this , which I cant honestly, the biggest issue would be getting it to a place to shoot it, if you can drop 55k on a gun the cost of 45-70 is not an issue.
To me it would be getting it too a range or field I could play with it at.

I want to see them honor this.

>>33054871
Fixed defenses are useless in the modern age.

Are gatling guns NFA items? The crank is a manual action.

>>33054807
if he can spend the cost of a small house on a gun he can probably afford to shoot it.

could you really do this though? Not saying it wouldn't be legal, but mechanically could it work?

you're doing a poor job fitting in

Why is this listed as an NFA item?

this doesn't come across creepy as fuck or anything

>>33054904
Manual cranking is non-NFA but if an electric drill is attached it's considered a machinegun.

Jeez, $7.00 shipping? thats a deal breaker. fuggedaboutit

NOPE. .45-70 is much easier to get than .30-40 it seems though.

>>33055112
Of course, the cranks are like $20. You can turn any gun into a Gatling gun legally. You give up accuracy what with the cranking and all and with just the one barrel it's gonna get hot but the SAW is meant for that so have a party.

with 50 grand you can probably get a maxim.

>>33054890

inb4 they just hitch it to the back of a UPS truck and wheel it cross country to your doorstep

>>33055396
>with 50 grand you can probably get a maxim.
but it won't be American, who pays $50 grand for a non-American gun?

>>33055294
drill becomes the new trigger. youve only extended the mechanism to a point where one pull of the drills trigger makes more then one bullet rooty tooty spin and shooty

>>33055371
SOP on SAW is 200 rounds before changing barrel (range).

>>33054764
because you need a proper battery, not just one, then hire some mexicans and besiege the local wal mart, thats what i'd do anyway

>>33054764
you could buy 361 hi points, so i think the choice is clear

>>33055680
His son is buried in a cemetery in my town.

>>33055680
the designer was, but the gun wasn't; Maxim was living in Europe at the time & the first guns (if not practically all of them-) were also manufactured in Europe.

You're an idiot.

Children in Africa could eat that ammunition, OP.

You selfish prick.

Use that cash to build a bug out sailboat instead. Be a trendsetter. Duracoat da boat and fly tan sails. Camo paint.

>54,000 for a repro
>probably cost less than 2K in parts to make

God damn I need a hobby involving building these things.

Its 150 year old technology, its gotta be dirt easy to make.

It'll surely fit in/on one shipping pallet. Truck freight across half the country would probably be $150 -$250. Probably already figured into the price. I'll bet its close to $187.54.

>Its 150 year old technology, its gotta be dirt easy to make.
mind if I save this so it can be engraved on your headstone when you go bankrupt trying to build decent quality repro gatlings with zero experience & you end up hanging yourself (you'll try to do it with one of your POS gatlings, but you can't get any of them to work)
