LOL -what you forgot to mention was the text that went with the photo (go to the root of the folder, and hit return.

"A minigun!!!  This one's a bit unique in that it's .22 caliber, and is actually made up of 6(?) separate Ruger 10/22's.
At least I THINK they're 10/22's as the gun is loaded with 6 separate 10/22 magazines."

Me thinks you'll find full-bore 7.62mm (definately) or 5.56mm (quite probably) a mite more difficult to handle!

BTW - 17 rounds only at 15 bucks a pop for the P90? OUCH! Absolutely the sod shoulda been smiling! That's a whopping 255
bucks he made!
