Mini Gun M134 From $319 Each

I've had so many different customers come to me to ask for a mountable minigun.  Sometimes it was for a golf cart, other times a full-sized Hearse.  We usually came up with a customized mounting, but at some considerable costs. (www.mrminigun.com) I now have fresh design, specifically designed for the particular customer's needs in almost every case, and it's surprisingly affordable.

This can be mounted almost anywhere.  The mini gun is 31 inches long overall, and the weight is about eight pounds.  This would make a great turret gun or mounted emplacement. You could poke an airsoft M14 through the middle, they fit perfectly.   Be sure to check with a lawyer first on this, maybe Mom, too.


The layout is basic by mission: Keep It Simple.  There are only four major components, designed to assemble easily, rapidly, and without error. They actually just snap together with rugged, simply released lock tabs that are built in.  You can just push the parts together, and they lock into place. 




I also make a full sized M134 that you can carry or add to something like a T800 Endoskeleton.  This is the movie prop minigun that I make for most of my customers.  It's all standardized parts like the Universal mini gun above.  You can snap it apart and back together, which makes for great "load-out" sequences.  the gun can be snapped together on camera without any tools or hardware, in literally seconds:
Here, in this video, I run the gun, snap it apart and lay the parts out, then snap it all back together in real-time.  The video is under two minutes, with practice, the gun can be assembled in as little as ten seconds flat.   The parts are small enough for suitcase stowage.
Another movie prop mini gun that I make is the Mounted M134.  This is identical to my carry M134 except it is equipped with dual spade grips and a swivel mount pad.  The gun can tilt up and down, and swing 360 degrees.  I always include the goodies to make this one into the carry type as a bonus, it's like getting 2 miniguns for the price of one.

Universal Miniguns!

Modular design, they are rugged and reliable, and water-resistant. 

Pictures here, the guns will soon be available at: www.mrminigun.com
 29 CNC machined parts, and a few well-chosen plumbing aisle components.
 All chem-bonded using the excellent Oatey Black ABS adhesive.
 The mount is universal-fit, so you'll need to decide where to drill to mount it.
 The gun is 31 inches overall length, assembled.
 It is made of four major assemblies, that just snap together.
 I designed and make the massive gear train myself.
 The DC drive motor for the minigun has a planetary transmission with straight-cut steel gears inside.
 Here's the motorized vehicle minigun, taken apart.  It can run on any DC voltage source, from 9-24volts.
 The minigun is 31 inches overall length when assembled.
 It can be taken down as shown, without using any tools at all.
 The steel barrels are solidly assembled, like the rest of the M134.  Notice the complete lack of fasteners on the barrel.  It's 100% Cold-Bonded construction.
 Paint is off the shelf black Krylon, nothing special.  They could easily be repainted or touched up.
 The simple core of the minigun has some very well-thought out geometry.  It has few parts, fewer fasteners.  If it isn't here, it cannot possibly give you grief.
If you ever manage to wear one out (I doubt it in a normal lifetime) spares are standardized and available.

$999 Miniguns Available

Here's a matching pair of universal-mount miniguns in black gloss, going to Texas. These will be listed soon, at www.mrminigun.com

I CNC machine the parts and assemble them myself.  Everything from design to packaging, is done by Me.
The mounts will slide on the bodies, allowing a multitude of mounting options.
This pair is custom wired in parallel.  Production versions will just have a six foot pigtail and connectors.
Paint is Krylon Semigloss black. Each gun is 31 inches long, and weighs about 8 Lbs.
All non-tubular parts are CNC made of 6mm thick ABS sheet, and bonded with Oatey Black ABS adhesive.
The modular design uses the delinker and DC drive from my standard carry miniguns: www.mrminigun.com

The barrels are steel, and assembled using modern Cold-Bonding techniques.  It has NO fasteners at all, yet is sturdy enough to fend off a grizzly with (please don't try).
This one is equipped with a DC battery pack option by request, but production models will be vehicle DC only.  Adding the battery will still be possible.
The two miniguns are identical except for the wiring.  Both turn the same direction, and are not mirror-images of each other.  That is possible, however, ALL of the parts were expressly designed for inverted assembly.
This will be what customers who order get.  The power cable is six feet, and has an inline power connector for convenience.  www.mrminigun.com
