    Where can I find a gattling?

    Title says it....I'm looking for a table top .22lr gattling
    As well as questions about one
    Is it legal without further permits? Not a machine gun legally?
    I'm not interested in the 10/22 mounting kit...although maybe one day if all else fails
    Anyone ever shoot/own one? I'd love to hear about that experience
    Thanks guys

    BATFE has held that hand cranked Gatling guns are conventional Title I firearms. Not certain whether they will revisit this determination in light of their impending bump stock ruling.

    Tippman Arms and Valley Engraving were the most prolific manufacturers of .22 lr Gatling guns. Neither is still manufacturing them. RG-G, Inc. offers detailed blueprints for .22 lr Gatling guns at a cost of $ 75. Wayne Driskill offers the Broadwell drum magazines, which are probably the most difficult element to make.

    Your best option is to look around for a used gun. The Thunder Valley full sized copies are not much more expensive than the .22 lr versions these days.

    I saw a half size 45lc at a local gun show. Guy was asking just shy of a grand for it. But was sold already
    I didn't think the small ones would be that much as well

    One look at the RG-G blueprints and you will appreciate the workmanship required, which drives their cost.

    There's a company in Michigan reproducing them. All center fire, though.

    Wayne Driskill just listed a Furr 10 barrel 1883 Gatling gun miniature in .22 short. These work very well. You won't like the price, though.

    Isn't there a kit that allows you to take two 10-22s and make a Gatlin?

    Submissive gun rights advocates need to lose their submissiveness before we lose our 2A rights.

    Not a fan. Might end up there tho...starting to realize that a gatling isn't reasonable

    Wow. That webpage looks like it was designed by a kid with a bag of colored markers and a heavy case of ADD. Gave it 20 seconds trying to find the Gatling choices before the nosebleed began and I had to close it out.
