More Early Gatling gun

SIMPLE in layout, RELIABLE in action. Be sure to zoom into this costume mini gun picture.  Building your own is easy, just look at how simply constructed this thing is. Tab and slot layout, and few metal fasteners or screws. The design has evolved drastically:

It's Even More Flexy, T2 Terminator Pinball Machine Kit

2nd cup of coffee down, lots of parts to run today, and work on the CAD design for 

the Terminator 2 Pinball machine kit is ongoing.

I've used up Monday's purchase of ABS sheet, more is coming today.

I have an advanced AMMO CHUTE to assemble, it's far more detailed at the cost of doubled machining time. It's even more flexy than what you see below, and has a very rugged Military appearance. Pics as soon as I have one completed.

 The delinker on my mini will see minor revision this week as I integrate the ammo belt connector into its parts.

 I initially designed it as a add-on.

 Making it part of the delinker will make it more compact as well as cutting assembly cost.

M134 Mini Gun With Pack and Chute, Just $999?

Here's the First and Only full setup M134 (Westinghouse type machine gun) costume gun you can get, off-the-shelf, in the entire World.
Overall size is 34" long, 12" wide, and 11" high.  
The gun itself weighs almost sixteen pounds.
All major parts are minimum 6mm thick ABS, and CNC machined to size.  
There are NO vacuum-formed or cheap cast parts.  
The 20" barrels are steel, and they rotate at up to 500RPM, powered by a hidden 18volt rechargeable power pack (included) that docks underneath the M134 mini gun, out of sight. 
The authentic ammo chute and back pack complete the show: full sized real US Military ALICE frame pack and heavy duty ammunition box. 
The 5lb, 52-inch flex feed chute is adjustable for length, and is quick-detachable from both the gun and the back pack.
The port on the ammunition pack can be mounted in multiple locations and positions, top, bottom, left or right.

  The ammo chute has four positions it can mount in on the top or bottom of the unit, pointing to the left side or the right. Also, the chute also has three possible mount locations on each side, pointing up or down. 
So it can be easily tailored to a particular costume or preference.

The ammo chute just pushes into the port, and auto-locks into place. Squeezing two tab ears together releases it, just like on a real M134.
 The ammo chute itself can be shortened as needed with an included Phillips driver.
 Extra links will be available to make super-long chutes (unwieldy, but look awesome).

 The ammo Pack kit will come with the connector that goes on the gun. 
This will only fit my Mini's built from September 2014 on without mods.

Mini Gun Ammo Chute

Contemplate HOW this was assembled...Dummy M134 Machine gun ammo chute section, 52" long.    I've been making motorized costume M134 guns for many years, but have made few ammunition chutes to go on them, for one big reason: cost.

  Regardless of materials and methods, an ammo chute has MANY parts, and assembling them an intensive process.  I have been working on a solution for nearly a decade.

This is the results, an alarmingly simple construction that exceeds every criteria set from the beginning: high durability, simple construction, low weight, and authentic looks for screen or convention use.  A suitable 52" section is designed to weigh no more than five pounds total, and be strong enough to support three times the weight of the M134 costume gun (www.mrminigun.com).

The links are one by three inches, and it's possible to scale them up or down to suit "caliber".  The dimensions given computed out as best for the mini gun that I build now, and will also fit those sold before July 2014.   

Links are much tighter together, but flex and twist are better than the one above. It couldn't bend side to side much, or twist, end to end.  Note how it isn't hanging "to gravity", but is maintaining its shape instead.  The play between links wasn't properly worked out in CAD, as appearance was a higher priority.

The new one has super-flexibility, but looks better.

  Chutes and back packs will be offered on the site in a few days.

Pricing is TBD, but ballpark is $599 for a Mini gun M134 and Pack with chute, $399 for the pack and chute alone, $305 for the mini gun (on sale at $288 right now:   www.mrminigun.com . 
For customers who already have one of my minis, the pack and chute will be just $349.   Chutes alone will be $150.

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.
