.22 Gatling Gun

[echo1]

Hi All,

I luvs me some .22s, and always wanted to build a .22 rotary hand cranker. I've seen the plans but have only run across one at the fishing/gun shop/bar in Sonora. But you couldn't handle it or look at it up close. Did think the shop owner said it could be had for a couple grand 10 years ago.

Any of you guys built one or have drawings for one? PAX

The plans have to be somewhere out there. In the 70s or 80s, the plans were available for a fee. I think the plans were for a 22 short.

Don't have to buy plans if you DuckDuckGo around some... or Google, if you figure they know your searches anyway and just don't care, like I did.

My Dad built this one about 15 or so yrs ago. Bought the plans (I still have um). If I put rifled barrels on it it would function. Just has some dummies he also made in it now which will cycle.

Neither are for sale btw.

I don't remember who had them for sale, there is a kit that uses 2 10 22s to make a Gatlin gun
I need to check the Google

Do these qualify as 80 % firearms? Or would you have file paperwork to build one for yourself ?

They sell drawings.

Drawings. Not computer files of any useful sort. Just drawings. In 2021.

SMDH.

Somebody please look at that website and tell me I missed something. I really want to be wrong about this.

Well, my point was that one could look... and I kind of purposefully didn't give anything really obvious out. Optics and all.

Not Gatlin guns. 2 10-22 actions mounted side by side. Only 2 barrels, no rotation. Activator type crank handle works both actions. 4 rounds from each 10-22 action with a full crank.

They even sell 3D cad images of all the parts...on a CD!


Maybe they figure selling only paper copies of the plans will reduce piracy...I can’t think of any other reason. Although the blue prints could be easily scanned and put online. And probably have been somewhere.

Well, my point was...

...fully understood. That's why the only thing I backquoted was the website URL. I'm wondering how they stay in business. Security by obscurity is usually a guaranteed fail, after all.

Plans are not that hard to get.
Here ya go.
Keep in mind these are 15-20 yrs old.

Actually the date on label when these were mailed to my dad is 2/14/01.

The use to make a rotary devise that clamped on to the trigger guard that would turn a semi into a type of gatlin gun.

Those are illegal now I believe.

Maybe if motorized. It is still one trigger pull, one round fired.

To All,

UNLESS it has sold very recently, there is a REAL .45-70 Gatling gun on a NICE horse-drawn carriage (with all the "goodies") in EXCELLENT condition for sale here in SATX. = 10,000.oo OBO, was the price that I was quoted sometime ago.

HANDSOME PIECE, too.

yours, satx

$10,000? Seems rather low in price for a true authentic Gatling gun. Saw one sell about eight or nine years ago for over $350K. and this one just sold for $222K, including the buyer's premium.
