- Moore, an engineer and machinist by trade, fell in love with Gatling guns while watching cowboy movies as a kid. Years later, he built his first one from scratch, relying on pictures of different models introduced in the late 1800's. 'I realized a set of blueprints were needed, so I disassembled the one I had built and drew them up,' he recalls.
- Caselman Air Machine Gun As a tribute to Jeff Caselman the complete construction plans for this amazing weapon are available here. I am indebted to my good friend Mad Abe, a former 'Soldier of Fortune' turned author (see www.unclefesterbooks.com ) who patiently endured 15 years of searching to track down the plans which are now shown here for.

You can pump out up to 600 rounds a minute with an 1800's style Gatling gun from RG-G, Inc. The half-size design uses 50-round clips of .22-caliber ammunition fired by a battery of 10 rotating barrels.
'I just like taking mine out and firing it,' explains Paul Moore, designer and builder of the gun. 'Sometimes people thinking of buying one will stop by, and we'll set it up and fire off a clip or two.'
Are you a serious gun collector, shooter or hobbyist? Have you ever dreamed of owning an actual Gatling gun? Since 1991, RG-G, Inc.

Moore, an engineer and machinist by trade, fell in love with Gatling guns while watching cowboy movies as a kid. Years later, he built his first one from scratch, relying on pictures of different models introduced in the late 1800's.
'I realized a set of blueprints were needed, so I disassembled the one I had built and drew them up,' he recalls.
For many years he built and sold fully assembled and partially completed versions of the guns in addition to parts and plans. Today he only sells the parts and plans.
'My guns use the original gravity-fed, in-feed design, ' says Moore. 'The in-feed jams up easily, and then it has to be reset. It's just the way the original design works.'
Selling the kits and plans ensures that buyers will understand and be able to fix the guns themselves. Kits consist of all hardware needed (screws, nuts, bolts, bushings, gears, springs and bearings) as well as rifled barrel liners and ground firing pins. Brass and steel parts that need to be machined are also included. The only raw materials missing are some parts for the carriage and yoke mount.
The smaller caliber dramatically reduces the amount of steel and brass needed. This cuts the full-size gun's 350 lbs. to only 55 lbs. for the half-size version. Finished size is 3 ft. long by 2 ft. tall.
These kits aren't for the average person, emphasizes Moore, as they require basic mill and lathe work to complete. 'I recommend these guns only be attempted by someone with experience, like a retired machinist,' he says. 'I can only turn out about three a year. Working steadily on one, it will take about 600 hours to complete. Some customers have also successfully modified our plans to produce full-size versions'
Even though the difficulty in completing a gun limits the market, Moore says he has sold more than 500 kits and some 8,000 sets of blue prints over the past 18 years. The kit sells for $719, and the fully finished gun, when formerly. Plans and a CD of 3-D images of each part and assembly are also available.

Don't we all want the big guns… Big Paintball Guns that is. Many paintball players don't even know that they exist. But in an attempt to add realism to the sport of paintball, a few companies have manufactured big paintball guns that function like the 'bad boys' out in the modern warfare fields.
There are paintball bazookas, paintball shotguns, paintball miniguns, etc. And all of these paintball versions function exactly the way we'd expect.
It's fairly close between the paintball bazooka, and the paintball minigun. Paintball miniguns are not widely accessible to the public, because they are simply not available for purchasing. Not yet anyways… So if you want a paintball minigun, you'll have to manufacture it yourself. Which is not as hard as you may think, and the plans are available online.
So, you can construct the paintball minigun to be as large as you want it to be. But you'd have to build a pretty big beast to rival a store bought paintball bazooka. A paintball bazooka can either be homemade or bought from a paintball store. I've heard nothing but good things about the store bought paintball bazookas. But I have heard a few screw ups with the homemade paintball bazookas.

They do wonders on the paintball fields. That is, if you're paintball field will allow one. Some paintball field supervisors are Nazis when it comes to big paintball guns. Which is unfortunate, because they are ridiculously awesome!
Make sure your paintball field will allow them into play. They do add another aspect to the game, and should be a welcome addition.
The paintball bazooka will fire long distance, as well as cover a larger target area. It can (and should) be used in short and long range circumstances. The paintball cannon (aka paintball shotgun) should be used in short term matches only. Paintball cannons can only have accuracy for a very short distance. But in that short distance, they can be deadly. There is absolutely no missing your opponent if you fire at them within 15 feet.
If you play 'Call Of Duty' as many of us paintballers do, think about a shotgun. You would never use a shotgun to try and snipe someone from a distance, but if you got closed to an enemy…. game over.
And finally, the paintball minigun is BIG!

A paintball minigun will fire many paintballs per second. Even more than you could from an automatic paintball gun. You will have some mobility difficulties, because this gun is absolutely gigantic. And most fields won't allow you to use a minigun, because they are simply too devastating. But if you can, make sure you are on the firing side of one of these bad boys.
