badmotogoozer Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Only interested if it actually fires projectiles. That would be a useful thing... But if one ever comes up cheap on ebay, I'd buy it just to put on a little tiddler... maybe that Lambretta chopper I've been planning to build... Rj
Alex-Corsa Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Only interested if it actually fires projectiles. That would be a useful thing... Everything is possible. Well I got a better idea. Guzzi BrevaV11MinigunGTS model. Now and Then pic follows
badmotogoozer Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Now THAT's how to accessorize a motorcycle! Speed Tax Collector: "Do you realize you were doing 170 kms/hr in a 90Km zone? Well equipped rider: "I certainly do." STC : "Well carry on then." Rj
orangeokie Posted January 13, 2006 Author Posted January 13, 2006 Besides the "look" I thought the "sound" of the exhaust, at power, was remarkably similar to a GAU gatling gun. Sort of like a buzz saw . . .

Skeeve Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Fires a 7.62mm round, at 2000 rounds per minute. I thought they were 6000 rounds per minute? I think there's two different calibers. Thread title gets a BIG bzzzt! for mixed terminology: chain guns are not Gatling guns! The different rates of fire are dependent upon how big a motor they have driving the Gat & how many barrels; clearly the 5-barrel guns are going to fire at a lower round-per-minute rate than the 10-barrel guns. Chain guns are single-barrel, with the action chain-driven by a motor. This was invented by Hughes Aviation(?) to enable the chin-turret on their Cobra? attack helicopter to function more reliably at a higher r.o.f. than a more traditional recoil-operated machinegun action can do. Already saw the cheezy exhaust toy in a thread on the LABiker listserve; as I stated there, it's wasted on a cruiser: it needs to be mounted on a sprotbike w/ underseat exhaust & have some sort of propane feed so that you can get the "font of flame" f/x that a real Gatling produces...

"It is a common misnomer to refer to Gatling guns (rotary cannons) as chain guns. Certain Gatling do use a chain-gun mechanism; however, all Gatling guns are not inherently chain-powered weapons. Weapons such as the M61 Vulcan, the M197, the M134, and the XM214 are chain-powered Gatling guns." link Awesome Video

docc Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 I've often wondered, if my Sport were a firearm what would it be? Perhaps a sawed off 12 guage side-by-side as we imagine the Sicilians to sling? One with external hammers to mirror the push-rods.
Alex-Corsa Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 I've often wondered, if my Sport were a firearm what would it be? A Bar. 50Cal. Old refined, a bit slow , Yet one most reliables and very powerfull.
docc Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 Ha! I hadn't thought of the BAR. A real thudder like the V11. ( I thought they were .30-06?)
Alex-Corsa Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 Ha! I hadn't thought of the BAR. A real thudder like the V11. ( I thought they were .30-06?) Yep that Browning sure is. Browning 50 Construct your own,.. just kidding
