Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Holy Crap! Transferable or post sample? How many rds fired in that burst?
Thanks!
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

I can still remember being told at my first service rifle competition "There's always going to be somebody with a bigger gun than you."

I think you might have just one-upped 98% of this forum.

Very slick.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

I would bet that is Maj Malf's bullet hose in that video.

Nope. It is Cold Hand Arms mini-gun. They just got back from DeGroat's mini-gun armor's class with it.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Ok, u realize this is a SEMI AUTO forum right?
Totally not fair.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

All of that money spent on that gun and you couldn't get a better camera? Just bustin' yer balls!

He had to save all his money for ammo
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

The owner was only letting people shoot blanks. When they loaded real ammo in it, the recoil was too much for the tripod they were using. The gun rocked back and was about to start launching bullets into the ceiling.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

That is awesome. Were you guys using M80 with M13 links? The kick with live ammo will torque the hell out of the tripod and even more so once you go high rate. Do they have any Dillon Aero parts or is it all GE with that mini?

In the USAF we use Dillon Aero on our 60's. We have low rate (33 bullets per second) and high rate (66 bullets per second).
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Let me know if you need any ammo.
I have 2 sealed cases and two cans of 7.62 NATO on M13 Links.
Ammunition is 9 to 1 ratio M80 ball to M62 (OFM) Tracer.

Ammo is not stolen USGI either...
Got a good deal on a trade and have is stacked up in my ammo locker.

What is the point of having variable fire rates? Just curious.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Low rate is for getting on target and once we are the high rate just lets everyone know we mean bussiness. We shoot very long ranges with this weapon and accurately as well.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Here is more video of Cold Hand Arms' minigun being shot.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VJ5kfUQL-o

Wish they were recording when they started shooting live ammo as I would have liked to see the mini-gun rock back. Just shooting blanks in the OP's video and this one.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Here is some eye candy for you! Some Minigun support for marines in Marjah Afg. You don't want to be on the receiving end of this!

I was just on the receiving end of the hot brass falling on me from a 160th Chinook over top of me, and that was no fun! I can't imagine what it's like with the pointy part coming at you!!
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

OK so those are a bit pricy....is that because of the gun construction or is it because you cant get them anymore?

Few manufacturers, gun construction, and most are sold to government are probably the main price drivers. The one in the videos the OP and I posted is brand new. There are just a few specific ways to get a new one. If you can come up with the money and meet the requirements, you too can own a new one.
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

yes, those tracers are ricocheting in the footage at dusk (but none were coming back at us in the UH-1, it just appears that way)

in fact, all bullets have the potential to ricochet, but you just happen to see it happen when firing tracers... makes you ponder how often that occurs anyway, and you're just not seeing it, right?
 
Re: Got the mini-gun running :)

Freaking sick!!!
