	Minigun - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The ancestor to the modern minigun was made in the late 19th-century, when Richard J. Gatling replaced the hand crank mechanism of a rifle caliber Gatling gun with one of the relatively new electric motors.
		The GE 7.62x51mm Minigun has been used in gun pod applications by the United States and with purpose-built mounting hardware used on the aforementioned fixed wing gunship aircraft.
		It was a scaled-down version of the M134, firing 5.56mm NATO ammunition, the same as the M16 rifle.

	M134/XM214 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Miniguns are weapons designed to deliver vast quantities of ammunition on a target at a high rate of fire, through the use of the Gatling principle.
		The M134 saw extensive use in Vietnam mounted on Huey gunships, and is primarily used today on a large number of US Special Operations helicopters.
		In theory, one of these miniguns could be carried and fired by a single shooter at 1,000-2,000 rpm, if he could lift the gun + ammo + batteries (around 80 lbs).

	M134 Minigun - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		A minigun is a multi-barreled machine gun with a high rate of fire, employing Gatling style rotating barrels to prevent overheating.
		The minigun is composed of six closed-bolt rifle barrels arranged in a circular housing.
		A real minigun (at 4000rpm) would consume 1,300 rounds of 7.62 mm ammo, weighing over 100lbs (55kg.) Although not an unrealistic load for a muscle-bound soldier, it is doubtful that such a burdensome weapon-system would be carried behind enemy lines, on foot.

		The Air Force GAU-2B/A (Army M134) 7.62mm "minigun" was designed to provide a light weight high rate of fire armament package for use on helicopters and light fixed-wing aircraft.
		The M134 minigun was used on the M21, M27, XM50, and Emerson MINI-TAT on the UH-1 "Huey", OH-6A Cayuse, and OH-58A Kiowa, XM18E1, M28 series, and XM64 on the AH-1G and MOD AH-1S "Huey" Cobra, XM53 on the AH-56A Cheyenne, and on a wide variety of U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force light fixed-wing aircraft.
		Components of the M134 minigun are the rotor assembly, six bolt assemblies, six removable bolt tracks, gun housing assembly, rear gun support, six barrels, barrel clamp assembly, safing sector, housing cover, and two quick-release pins.

		Even after Gatling deliberately slowed down the mechanism, the new electric-powered Gatling gun was credited with a cyclic rate of 3,000 rpm--roughly three times the rate of a typical modern, single-barreled machine gun.

		The second was that in the movie, the power for the Minigun had been supplied by a pair of truck batteries through a cable that simply ran over the ground, and up into the Minigun.
		With the rate of fire of a minigun, you'd probably expect something in the way of 2800lbs (i forget how recoil is measured, i think its lbs) in the way of recoil.
		On Miniguns themselves the reason they are refered to as GE guns is because they were origninally all spun buy a General Electric Motor (other brands are used as well now) running off of the batteries.

	M134 Minigun - Wizards Community
		The M134 is the same minigun which was used in "Predator".
		Originally created for use in the Vietnam War, the minigun is a powerful machine gun that uses a rotating cluster of six barrels that let it fire hundreds of rounds in even short burst.
		The idea was to have the main henchman of my master villain dug in and wielding a 1000rpm minigun which would make a direct confrontation suicide and then forcing the players to find a different way to take him out and get the plot item he holds.

	Monty's Airsoft Minigun Page
		Ninety eight percent of minigun parts do NOT interchange and this was done on purpose by the Japanese as their laws are very restrictive when it comes to any functional mechanical part of an actual firearm (sights, grips, add on's Ok).
		It was a all electric gun with 6 individual spring loaded pistons for its air supply, this relieved it of a external tank but now a much larger battery had to be used to power a high torque motor to compress the heavy springs to fire the gun.
		Note: The new American airsoft miniguns use a totally different feeding system, they are much more tolerant of standard pellets due to the nature of the rotor system and much more reliable.

		With any minigun there is some runout of the barrel cluster on our gun it was almost impossible to see.
		The minigun is fed from a external Co2 supply or high demand air compressor.
		The M134 ASG Minigun has a built in 1700 round magazine and a internal extended mag option that brings it up to 3000 with no visible external feed but I highly recommend the backpack shuttle system.

	M134 7.62mm Minigun Machine Gun (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The 7.62mm M134 Minigun machine gun is based on the Gatling gun principle in which a high rate of fire is achieved by having a number of rotating barrels which fire in turn when the 12 o'clock position is reached.
		The Minigun is driven by a 28 V DC or 11 5 V AC electric motor and produces a steady rate of fire which varies according to type from between 2000 and 6000 rds/min as a top rate, down to 300 rds/min as the slowest rate of fire.
		Since the entire gun is driven by an external source, a misfired round is simply ejected and thrown down the large section hose with the empties either into a box or, more usually, out over the side.

		The resulting weapon, known as the M134 Minigun, could fire up to 4 000 rounds per minute, and soon found its way to the various helicopter mounts.
		One of Commandos was armed with the distinctive weapon, a 6-barreled rotary Minigun, fed from backpack ammo box.
		The electric motor was powered via cable, hidden in the actor's pants, and the actor had to carry bulletproof vest and protective mask to avoid injuries from the fast and violently ejecting empty cases.

		As what a minigun is, it looks decent enough, I'd up the ammunition output per round (prolly around 200 or so) and give it a bigger area maybe 20'x20' but other then that not bad.
		With the M134 you can't, either you have to wait till the next round to power the thing down to move, or you have to make the str check to move a whole five feet, which with autofire isn't going to help much.
		Damage wise they are a bit higher (4d12) then the M134, they have a higher range (150 ft.) increment and fire on full auto, but don't cover as much area as the M134.
