No helo mounted variants of that gun were ever produced with 3 barrels.

Call them anyway. Be interesting to see if you get any legit info.

They look like pieces of pipe. The only three barrel Gatling I know of is the U.S. .50 that we built up at GD. GAU19 IIRC. And those on the Hind are big honking cannon diameter tubes. That look like black iron plumbing pipe or PVC pipe to me.

The Hind Gatling was a 12.7mm which was the Soviet.50 BMG equivalent. It was definitely four barrels.

Edit… forgot about this guy.

Hang on. I was wrong. Forgot about this one Another GD product. 20mm three barrel. Probably enough of that hardware floating around that they might have stuck one in!

By a CDG from Ted (says ships in a week) then either;

1. Get a barrel that’s in stock from Bugholes and send it to Chase Fisher @FisherT&C to be spun. He’s very fast and does exceptional work. Then spin it on and stick a trigger on it.

2. Get a barrel Osprey barrel from Josh at Patriot Vally Arms and have him spin it. He also does beautiful work and for a premium over standard price they will do very fast turn around. Spin it on and stick a trigger in it.

Can’t remember Josh tag…anybody?

Here in North Carolina, our service members handle their business. I'd recommend talking to the "contractor" that was trespassing on a service members property. That's not possible, as he is no longer in a position to comment or trespass.

Best caliber for big game at 400 plus yards

Hes not wrong. 6.5C will easily kill anything in north America inside of 500 yards. I probably wouldn't pick it for polar bear or moose, but something like a 300wsm is perfect for those. 6.5mm has been the go too big game cartridge in Europe for over a 100 years.

The most successful hunter I know stopped shooting the big magnums years ago. A house full of trophies. 6.5C gets it done. His 360 class bull from 2 years ago is sitting on the wall, killed with a 143gr eldx at 560y.

The vast majority of people cannot shoot non magnums competently. Now throw extra recoil and they are not doing themselves any favors. Sometimes, Less is more. Experienced hunters and shooters know this.

Those that don't, spout shit like 338WM and 338L or using big 30 cal magnums on fucking deer, which is ludicrous.

My 11yo son took a lot of animals with a 6.5CM running 129SST superperformace loads. None of his shots were over 300 yards. Some animals much bigger than moose (would not push my luck or his with a polar bear).

Walked away from that trip with a completely different respect for the 6.5CM. (Have been shooting it since it's release).
