The Official Status Update Thread: Part 38 - Romancing the Stone

That'd be pretty awesome. I'm not sure how reliable they would be to shoot, but it'd be a really cool piece of history.

I'd be okay with a Gatling Gun. I think it was Cabela's that had one for sale for like $48k.

I don't think Gatling Guns are considered NFA though.

Cabela's sells a kit to turn two 10/22's into one gatling gun.

I'm going in less than 2 hours

Nice!

I'm probably going to be there either tomorrow, or possibly Sunday. I figure today will be my day to get stuff done around here.

Then junkyard and gun show tomorrow.

Cabela's: Gatling Gun Kit

Cabela's: Gatling Gun Kit

I've actually considered buying one of those before. I just havent turned the crank on it yet

 

[Rayne]

Sleepy, imagine that

 

[GBuck]

I want one of the kits, but I got a magazine ad from either Cabela's or Gander and it had a REAL Gatling gun, but like I said it was either $46 or $48k.

DO EEETT!!!!


It's a bit steep though. I mean just under $500 on top of buying 2 - 10/22's

So you're talking just under $1000.00 Plus magazines, plus ammo.

but a lot of fun though

I wonder if you could make one cheaper. It's not NFA at all.

If I was spending that much on a gun, it'd pry be an MG42

 

[GBuck]

Yeah, but you don' have to pay the $200 on the Gatling.

 

[GBuck]

Holy crap on a stick! I just passed 12k posts and didn't even flinch!

Yeah that's been my problem, the price. Sadly the price of 10/22's keep going up. Too bad I didn't do it a long time ago.

Still would be a fun and fairly cheap way to get into something full auto, especially since it isn't an NFA item

 

[OneBadV8]

MG42 + Ammo + $200 stamp < Cost of Gatling Gun

 

[HandK]

Ham & Beans n'Cornbread!!!!

Warm ya up food for a cold day!!

 

[hotfarmboy1]

Yeah, but you don' have to pay the $200 on the Gatling.

If you have $48 grand to use on a machine gun. I doubt the $200 tax stamp is going to bother you one bit.

It's not considered full-auto unless you put a power drill on it. Then that'd be an NFA Violation. As long as it stays a hand crank I'm pretty sure you're good to go.

Yup This ^^ Plus isn't the MG42 in 7.62x54r?

If so it'd be fairly cheap to shoot, I'd love to have one!

Yeah well you know what I meant

You and your technicalities!

Don't want to mislead anyone or encourage NFA violations.
