I’d like to put a gatlin gun to that crowd and rescue that woman.

This is me coming to the rescue of that woman with my gatlin gun:

This automatic shotgun would clear the streets fast:

Dang it. That one brought on a flashback.

In Vietnam during 1967, the U.S. Army disarmed their Mohawk aircraft by removing their M134 Miniguns and these guns were left laying around various arms rooms throughout the country. Inevitably, an enterprising Special Forces soldier obtained one of these M134s and mounted it on an M60 machine gun mount on the back of a Jeep.

That machine gun mount was designed to withstand the recoil produced by a machine gun firing the 7.62 cartridge at 600-800 rounds per minute, but when that M134 Minigun fired at 2,000-6,000 rounds per minute, the Minigun tore off of the mount and spun around firing like a high pressure hose killing several of us bystanders before it ran out of ammo.

I think of that incident every time I see a minigun in a movie being fired by hand. With the recoil that thing produces, it's just not possible.
