This video reminded me of something; sometime between 1964 and 1965 a representative from the Browning Company came to the Special Operations Forces headquarters at Fort Bragg, NC to demonstrate a 22lr machine gun. This thing was about the size of your 22lr Gatling gun but was fully auto and had an incredible rate of fire. It had an extra large bull barrel which had no cooling other than the heat dissipation from the mass of the barrel. The ammo was sandwiched between two opposing strips of paper many, many feet in length. In fact, I do not remember them ever reloading this gun the entire demo and thousands of runs were fired. Like your Gatling gun it had no significant recoil and could be fired full auto until you ran out of ammo. They were selling this as a light, portable, fire superiority weapon. Maybe you could find something out about this weapon. I promise it would make for an interesting video if you could get one! The US Army did not buy this gun but it was sure an amazing demo! Thanks for all your videos!
The American 180 was a fully auto 22 that some police forces used in the 70’s as a “less lethal” weapon lol. Some cops were chasing some dumbasses and opened up with one of those, I guess it cut them to ribbons, so much for less lethal.
Yes but it’s still silly, and definitely not a Gatling. Only one barrel actually fires! What is that? I would have more fun with my 10-22 and a 50 rd. magazine.
You used to be able to buy plans and kits for .22 Gatling guns from the classifieds in “Popular Mechanics”. My dad had a backyard foundry set-up and my grandfather was a tool and die maker. They combined their evil genius and built a magazine fed one. All of us kids probably shot a million rounds out of it. We shot that thing so much, we actually got board with it.
@@Naltddesha they were vertical gravity stick mags like the original, you could pull the follower out and keep loading it while it was still in the gun.
@@GunsandGearNetwork No, he's saying a drill would be classified as machinegun regardless, because those business cards with the template of an autokey card was classified as a machine gun.
That shaky table was hurting a lot. A friend of mine had Tippman Armory's 9mm Gatling and it is laser beam accurate at 100 and 200 yards when you have the T&E set up.
@@chloehennessey6813 That annoying extra part that comes with the M2 tripod mount. They try to put them on vehicle turrets too. Most crew-served weapons have a version of them. So glad I moved on after MCT to the airwing. Thanks to being aircrew, I'm qualified on three additional .50 cals and NEVER had to show proficiency with a damn T&E.
Stangers... I got a box of .22 Stangers signed at NRA Indy this year. I asked the CCI reps at the show if they were still making them, and they said they were out of production, probably permanently. A couple days ago, they had Stangers at Bass Pro by me. If you happen to see a box of genuine Stangers, it's the perfect thing to get Plinkster to sign if you ever get to meet him in person.
Evidently the mass of the cci execs hated that promo. I have a friend that works for cci, he said most of the mid level guys loved it, the brass not so much.
The belt link set up is an awesome idea, I love the way the bullets just snap in and you’re ready to go. I am a 22 magnum fan and always have at least 100 50 count boxes on hand. If this were available in .22 Magnum, I would definitely buy one.🎉✌️👻
Cool. I bubby I graduated with used to make mini browning machine guns that shoot 22LR. He was just one of those guys that could build anything. Built a hit and miss engine from scratch in highschool shop class .
Tippman made a full auto 22 air rifle. If filled with compressed air (instead of co2) it shoots 22 cal pellets at 850 fps using a similar ribbon fed drum mag. Probably better for full auto plinking than this. Not being able to aim the Gatling well kinda takes the fun out of plinking. It's just an ammo waster once the novelty wears off. The pre-charged air rifle can be used in your garden which is a huge plus over a real firearm.
Ive looked at the plans for building my own 22lr gatling gun for years. Probably the only thing holding me back has been the idea of casting some of the major pieces out of bronze. I now have a lathe and mill, maybe its time to build one.🤔
Hell yeah! Imagine doing the bill duke "CCCCOOOOONNNNTTTTTAAAACCCCTTTTTT" and your buddies run up to the firing line and just start shooting down range without hesitation! the rest of the range looking and thinking "what the hell are they doing?" It's a movie thing.... You wouldn't understand.
A small electric motor, a battery and some gears would do it. I bet you could get everything you need from a cheap cordless drill. The fun police wouldn't like it. Or the real police.
Love that this was made by Tippmann. I have one of their paintball guns. Not the best paintball guns on the market but definitely known for being the most reliable!
It looks so fun, and I'd totally pay to rent one for an hour or two, but it's so impractical in most any situation, and even .22's add up in $$$ when they're spitting out like that. Thanks for the video, have fun!
That's the reason the Gattling Gun never took off in the civil war. All ammo was literally made by hand. The Gattling Gun's use was considered a waste of ammunition. These are cool to watch, but I wouldn't own one.
That is way cool. Be fun in a field full of ground squirrels. Probably wouldn't hit one, but it'd be fun shootin. In the mid 80s I was in the farmlands of central CA shooting ground squirrels, and the farmer had a rig set up with 2 ruger 10-22s mounted side by side. It had a cam mechanism that actived the trigger once per revolution, for a total of 2 shots rotation. The rate of fire was nothing compared to the gatling. But it was fun to shoot. Reloading was a real pain though
Tippmann was renown back in the day for their transferable full-auto miniature 1919s and M2HBs in .22lr.

I guess Tippmann has been able to survive with their Gatling guns and quality paintball guns (including a full-auto model).
Chloe, Changing a law once enacted is tough. The American Suppressor Association has been lobbying for years to get suppressors removed from the NFA of 1934. And a suppressor isn't even a firearm. It's an accessory.
@@brockshields9336yep By my estimation it's going to take a revolution Because somehow they can spend trillions of dollars of our taxpayer money on the defense budget Then we American citizens are allowed to own any of these arms That is a clear violation of the second amendment
Kinda' neat that Copper Custom (a.k a. Military Arms Channel) let you have it to play with! Methinks that since it's a .22 LR Rimfire Gatling Gun, instead of the original .45-70 Rimfire Gatling Gun of the American Civil War, it can be called a Mini-Minigun! 😁
Ok, now you need to do a speed trial, get the same number of balloons, and rounds, use the Gatling gun and your favorite pistol, see which can pop the balloons first, but do level the balloons off so the Gatling can get all of them without needing to change elevation.
I saw something similar years ago. 2 Ruger 10-22s mounted on a Gatling gun base. As you cranked the handle it would fire each 22. So a lot of rounds per minute. You could get 2 50 round mag and have 100 shots. If I remember right it was like $400 plus the 2 Ruger 10-22 which were like $100 back then
Seen similar thing with 2 9mm pistols laying on there sides with barrols next to each other. the crank was on top. And alternately fired them as fast as you wanted to crank.
I wish they would make a shoulder-able or hip mount-able gatling. I like the concept of the 9mm or 22 mini gatling, but it being restricted to just a tripod or cart seems kinda limiting.
Tippman also made the most badass paintball machine that ever lived an ATV with a gatling turret up top drill powered. they showcased it in Bryan, OH in front of the wal-mart and I lost my sh*t, of course my first paintball gun was the Tippman. Always wanted that 98 model tho!
If they sent you this there must be a reason. Like many other CZcamsrs reviewing products they also link a discount code for the product. Can you post a code for 60% off?
I bet you could make some kind of crank-operated speed loader for this. Just have a big hopper full of .22, put the belt in the bottom and crank it through.
I had a Tipmann Pro-Am paintball gun back in the late 90s, was considered an entry level gun, solid, heavy, not expensive. Performed like a beast though. I got is used from my cousin when he upgraded to his mini-mag. Sold it to a buddy when I joined the Marines, and he gave it to his son, I haven't heard from them in a while but I bet it's still going strong.
@@spud69g I owned a paintball field and I had TIPPMANS for rentals. They were tough guns and d shot well if you chrono'd them at 270 fps and no higher. I don't know the bolt design maybe was not gentle enough or spread the air evenly on the surface of the balls, whatever the reason, at higher velocities we had a lot of balls break and soupy barrels. Lots of swabbing. Other than that they handled the abuse great.
@bendabutcha I figured that may be the case. That is why I said theoretically. I am sure that as a matter of quality control testing, the manufacturer would want to know at what cyclic rate their mechanism would quit to function properly. I realize the alphabet soup people would be highly vexxed, but not being cognizant of points of failure on any device might be considered negligent. Just saying.
hmm if you messed with gear ratios you could give it better speed at the cost of more torque sure you would get tired quicker but you would get more brrrrrt outta it my other idea is a essentially a drum spring with a ratcheting winder either like a oversized pocket watch winder or one of those pull back toy cars spring engines you wind it up and let go and brrrrrrrt! it goes except would it be a machine gun though. a machine gun is classifed as a firearm that fires multiple shots as the trigger is pulled and held but technically there isn't a trigger you crank it and let go and the spring rapidly expends it's energy hmm oh and i guess you could remove the crank as a big heavy piece of metal would kinda be hazardous as it spun and thinking of a pocket watch system there would be the rod you would pull to set the time and when you push it the watch would continue ticking would that be a trigger despite it not being pulled and held... i don't know and i don't have one nor know it my ideas are valid
Now I want to get 3 of these and mount them in the back of a pick up with gearboxes to link them all together so one crank turns all 3, just seems sooo ridiculously overkill yet fun for hog hunting
So the reason for the difficulty in adjusting the elevation - the intended use for Gatling guns is to sweep an area to deal with large numbers of targets and/or deny that area to enemy infantry. As such, you figure out what is going to be around waist height for the ground you're covering, set the elevation and then simply focus on cutting anyone dumb enough to be standing in your field of fire in half. Basically you're looking for quantity of fire over quality of accuracy. As for squirrel hunting...I've got the full auto MP40 BB gun and spying a problem squirrel in my tree while plinking for fun, decided to do a mag dump into him - he was standing before St Peter asking WTF before he hit the ground.

I could never afford one but it is a cool gun. I'm quite happy with my Kel -Tec PMR3 30, It put's 30 rounds down range as quick as you can pull the trigger.....
I had a Gatling gun that was two M-1 Carbines with a one push trigger side crank. It was a very fun gun but, everyone wanted to shoot it and that made range trip’s expensive.
Not a huge gun enthusiast but last i heard of tippman was when i bought a paintball gun 15 years ago. Lots of hate on the 22 caliber but id prefer to land 20 22"s rather then 5 9mm rounds.

I think you're talking about the Williams/Lisk .22lr SMG. Very interesting little weapon.
Nowadays, fire superiority just gives the drone operator a target. Better to sneak up on them while they're taking a slash! (Urinating)

you wind it up and let go and brrrrrrrt! it goes
except would it be a machine gun though.
a machine gun is classifed as a firearm that fires multiple shots as the trigger is pulled and held but technically there isn't a trigger
you crank it and let go and the spring rapidly expends it's energy
hmm oh and i guess you could remove the crank as a big heavy piece of metal would kinda be hazardous as it spun
and thinking of a pocket watch system there would be the rod you would pull to set the time and when you push it
the watch would continue ticking would that be a trigger despite it not being pulled and held...

Basically you're looking for quantity of fire over quality of accuracy.
As for squirrel hunting...I've got the full auto MP40 BB gun and spying a problem squirrel in my tree while plinking for fun, decided to do a mag dump into him - he was standing before St Peter asking WTF before he hit the ground.

That looks like a lot of fun.
I could never afford one but it is a cool gun. I'm quite happy with my Kel -Tec PMR3 30, It put's 30 rounds down range as quick as you can pull the trigger.....
Imagine you are a burglar and you suddenly hear a cranking noise from the darkness upstairs the house.
What a cool little gun!
Some 22 tracers would have been fun to see, especially the coke cans!
Great stuff my friend. Stay safe. 😎👍🏼🔥
Pretty sweet gun I would love to own one.
Quite a grin you're wearing. Looks pretty fun.
Oh man! I gotta start saving up for one of those!! 😅
That is nuts cool!!! I want a couple!
I had a Gatling gun that was two M-1 Carbines with a one push trigger side crank.
It was a very fun gun but, everyone wanted to shoot it and that made range trip’s expensive.
Awesome video ! Keep it up
By the looks of that red squirrel target, that Gatling gun would make a great paint stripper! Lol
Milwaukee's and Tipman's sales are about to go up
It’s the little Gatling that could!
That is awesome! I want one.
Nice fun item. Time for some Pine Mountain tracers!
I like how the squirrel changed its coat.
That looks like a fun time
Back when backpage was a thing, a guy in Phoenix would convert your ruger 10/22’s into Gatling guns! Needed at least 2 if correct
I think you can buy kits at Cabelas
@@craigaustin4779 well now that sounds like fun
You had me at Gatling....
I get the feeling✋ somemoe will make a loader for those belts,ya know speed + still having some sensation in your fingertips 🙌
Awesome… I’d like one for my .556 Green Tip!
I think you need a sponsorship from Milwaukee too, a M18 FDD3-0X should make a nice little addon to the tipmann
I love .22s. So fun.
i sure wish that was legal in Canada here what cool machine to spend a sunday afternoon with the buddies
The video title did not lie. That is THE COOLEST 22 EVER!!!!!
Fun video, epic lil’ 22lr action. 📍
Not a huge gun enthusiast but last i heard of tippman was when i bought a paintball gun 15 years ago.
Lots of hate on the 22 caliber but id prefer to land 20 22"s rather then 5 9mm rounds.
That looks like its alot of fun:)
Action looks buttery smooth. 🤣
That’s awesome I want one now
Lol that is an awesome piece I need to get one
This is why the hand Gatling gun is the best in fallout 76.
Even in video games this thing is a beast.
That little gadget is very interesting!! 🇺🇲
