    There wouldn't be much left of the field that the rabbit was in, let alone the rabbit itself.

    Not really a PCP though is it, being a firearm and all that

    I would have thought that something like -=this=- would be the ultimate PCP - nevermind shooting at rabbits, you could quite literally shoot rabbits! What a concept!

    Sooooo, all you would need then is several guys to carry the batteries, and several more to carry the ammo.

    Cant quite remember the cyclic rate of fire from a minigun (6000rpm ONO...I might be wrong, its a long time )...times that by 3 , either way, thats a lot of bullets to lug round with ya

    Cyclic rate is selectable between 6,000-3,000 rounds per minute, so with that setup one second on the trigger would dump at least 150 rounds... Even the smaller variant chambered for the M16's 5.56mm round is impractical as a personal deapon due to the sheer weight of ammunition and ancillary systems required to support it.

    So it uses the same system as the GAU8A with 2 motors?, just use one and half the speed...ouch.

    The fact that there are 3 units makes it even sillyer

    i would not like to pump that pcp up to running presure with a styrup pump.

    and think of the size of the scuba tank you would need to fill it.
