I have seen some "behind the scenes" of the film SOLDER with Kurt Russel, in 
the film there are som future solders with minguns, withs turns out to be 
real world miniguns (can't remeber what type and who makes them, but it is 
the ones that is used in helicopter by the door gunner). But my point is 
that, even when they fired blanks the recoil/backprusser was great and in one 
of the scenes Kurt makes a Rambo stund( coming up of the water and shooting 
every one) and get the minigun pointet a little to much down to the water, 
loses balance and fald backword.

Dann - btw, it is a good future solder film:-)
