Having had a bad experience playing Quasar (e.g. I was rubbish at it), I’ve never subjected my easily-bruised body to paintball. Having seen Rick Galinson’s paintball minigun project, I’m even more convinced that there’s no chance in hell I’d put goggles and some camouflage gear on and face the barrel of one of these things!
Rick is a special effects builder, and has a site full of cool stuff. Make sure you check out his video of the minigun in action.

Mini-gun? Looks more like a mini-canon! Instead of paint balls does it shoot 1 gallon cans? I wouldn’t play either unless my team had the mini-canon! Cool!

i saw some guy have that in sgt splatters in toronto. he had a LOT of paint with him and a huge co2 tank. basically we were playing attack and defend and he was on attack. he wiped out the whole top floor cuz every1 was shooting from the windows. me and a few other ppl ducked when we heard the beast start to fire. but one couragous man ducked right when it passed over him got back up and yelled “HAHA YOU MISSED ME!” the guy with the minigun just turned around and fired about 100-150 rounds into him before he fell to the floor. i did not see that guy play anymore after that.

holy crap!! what a monster!!! it would be nice for speedball thats for sure. but i think an experianced team could take him in the woods. i bet that set up gets heavy after awhile with re-fill kits and that massive O2 tank. youd have to have it mounted on a buggy with alot of ammo n O2 to keep playin fer like n hour. bring him in the hilly thick wooded forests of michigan and i bet he wont be very good. he would have to bunker down somewhere.

Where do you put the paintballs in at?

can i buy one?
+9zé manel do pombal August 13, 2007
this tipe of weapon could begin a small war in a woodsball field…….. but it should consume a lot a paint, and for woodsball it is not very productive because of the treas. Just one shoot should be enougth to eliminate the mini gun shooter.

The “mini” of minigun is supposed to be a comparison to the WARPLANE it’s designed to be attached to. Oh my god, what an A-Hole the creator of this monster is.
-6B_rad October 19, 2007
this gun looks like it would kick so much ass on the feald nice gun
-3s October 27, 2007
Seriously, does anybody realize the sheer mechanics of trying to get this thing to work properly… Just trying to load in the paintballs into the barrel without chopping them is a feat in itself, but launching them out that quickly without chopping them yet again is even more of a feat. Not to mention just guess how much all the gear to get that thing going would weigh.
Yes, the concept is freaking awesome. But I personally would prefer a nice hiding spot in the woods with my tippmann 98 custom than standing out in the open with that heavy ass thing getting shot from all sides.
+1Nate October 27, 2007
if i saw that on the field i would laugh my ass off, it would be so inaccurate it wouldnt be funny and the fact is in a real game everyone would be gunning for himlet alone hes gonna move so slow its not even funny, sure nice inaccurate suppression fire other then that, hes done for

DarkAvenger September 29, 2008
i play scenario paintball and know a guy who has 2 miniguns, one that shoots through the barrels as they are rotating, and another(the newer one) that shoots through the middle while the turret is spinning. right now the only hopper that we have that can even keep up to find a top rate of fire is the q-loader. if you want to find out more about the mini-gun or any of the other products that are made, you can go to http://www.scenariodreams.com. he is the owner/creator of the universal t-board which can replace the board of any electronic gun, as well as the only commercial manufacturer of the FN P90 .68 caliber paintball milsim marker

doesn’t seem like much, i could snipe him out before he even has time to start the barrel
+2ppaintball maniac November 16, 2008
if i ever yoused that id have to kill someone with it
Neutralpaintball fan December 25, 2008
this minigun wuld a god weapon i cs 1,6 or in real pantball
NeutralWalker December 27, 2008
That mini monster was not made for SwampBall, although the rate of fire is awesome.
It sucks balls down a whole box in a heart beat.
Truely beautiful.
BUT~
Having watched the video on Utube, what I want to know is effective range.
Being a sniper, I believe I could take out the mini while still out of their range.
Now, if you give a sapper one of those in a tree blind he could take out a whole platoon.
What’s next, m18-claymores ?
NeutralMike January 17, 2009
I call B S. That thing dosen’t work. There is no way to feed a minigun of any kind except by belt and I dont know of anyone who makes paintball chains. Think about it. where’s the hopper/ co2.air/ or even a place on that POS for ball to feed into it. What a joke and you are all lame for falling for it. Read a book and learn somthing…..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini_Gun
