Maybe not THAT bad, but close!🤣🤣🤣

Because it only fires 7.62mm rounds and came after its MUCH-bigger siblings that fire 20mm rounds from fighter jets.

Edit: dang I’m curious now leaving a comment so hopefully I get notified when somebody bothers to do the math!

It doesn’t matter how it’s affected as long as they are all affected exactly the same way, which they are. But it’s actually pretty negligible, since each M80 NATO round exits the barrels at almost 2,000 miles an hour, whereas the barrels move laterally at only around 21 miles an hour at its very fastest rate of fire (if I’m doing the rough math right and guessing correctly at barrel spacing).

Yeah there are WAY more accurate videos on this gun.

If you turn it up all the way. (Usually it’s at more like 60-70 I believe.)

huh ?

These 5 minute craft channels are getting out of hand

@@THEPIECRAB lol

You mean intonation? Also Chills goes hard grfo

Short amswer. Heat. The weapon fires hundreds of rounds at a time, and each round generates heat. If they come from a single barrel, then that barrel can overheat quite fast. As it does from standard machine guns. From those there are systems that allows the user to change barrels and continue firing. In a rotatory cannons machine gun like the Vulcan phalanx or the minigun, the heat is spread between all the cannons, and not only that, given the rotatory nature, it allows the air to flow and take away heat. Why heat is a big deal? Because at high temperatures can cause damage, hindering performance, even exploding and damaging the user.

In a single barrel gun the bolt needs to go back, fully eject the shell, and spring back to fire the next shot. If you have your six barrels all reloading while the other is firing by the second they do a full revolution they can fire again. So yeah on top of heat you can reload shots while still being able to fire.

@@Rhino-hq1tf ...and how would that differ from there being five chambers as opposed to full barrels reloading while one was firing?

@@backforblood3421 you only have to reload one barrel at a time if they rotate instead of having a mechanism of all six and relying on more mechanical complexity to time all barrels to die at the right time.

@@Rhino-hq1tf What I'm talking about would work exactly the same way because the only difference would be that it would be six chambers identical to the breach end of the barrels and only one barrel.

They’re hidden off-screen in the movies. A person can’t actually carry one of these into combat, not even Arnold or Jesse.

6 barrels, 6 chambers, 6 bolts, 6 firing pins, all talking turns as they rotate around each other. Not like a revolver, which has 6 chambers, 1 barrel, 1 “firing pin” (hammer), and no bolt.

Idk?

Hes making everything sound obvious, which it kind of is, but its making me feel dumb anyway

it's his exaggerated tone of voice, as if everything he says ends with a !

It’s because he’s reading it to a preschool class. Normal in America….

I can’t watch the full video without pausing for a mental breather after hearing this man.

Heavy weapons guy ❤

@@dhairyasharma6243it's a joke, the quote was used on C-RAM (25mm Anti air system) which is kinda like m134 but bigger

​@@Pavzzz2503 isnt it TF2 reference?

Different gun. A-10 has a 30mm cannon, much, much bigger, for shooting at armour

A-10 has famous GAU-8, and this gun is way bigger than M134. The GAU-8 is the size of a Volkswagen Beetle.

The GAU-8 doesn't delink the belt or eject casings. The belt passes through the gun and cycles back to the drum magazine with the casings still in place because their weight is still needed to keep the aircraft balanced. Vulcans are similar but are usually hydraulic or pneumatic powered

This thing fires 7.62mm, Vulcan fires 20mm, that's almost 3 times the size. Not impressed yet? The gau fires 30mm. As for the mechanical principle, they're almost the same. The gau kept the spent casing to maintain the overall weight of the plane.

huh?

How mini guns work is also poor English. The proper way to say it is “How do mini guns work?” Please keep improving thank you.

@@johnmctavish1021actually, you don’t need to make it a question if it’s a title. However, “minigun” is one word, so the title can be: “How Miniguns Work,” OR, “How a Minigun Works” (still needs the indefinite article if it’s singular). 👍🏻
