...battle of Little Bighorn {discussion}...

...Each Gatling gun was mounted on an artillery carriage and weighed an astounding 1,942 pounds—darn-near a ton—empty. ...


...The TAGG ships on a little artillery carriage of its own, complete with 10-inch rubber tires like you see on Walmart scooters. If you have seen who uses the scooters, then you know the tires are capable enduring a lot of abuse. For the record, the tires require 30 psi inflation; I checked.

Kyle Smith, an engineer with Tippmann, told me that the company is working on an oak carriage with wood and iron wheels that looks like the vintage guns. While probably not rugged enough to support the Walmart-scooter types, they’ll look better on this gun.

The TAGG is 28.19 inches wide, 26.5 inches long and 18.25 inches tall and weighs 58 pounds empty. That’s less than a full magazine for some of the original Gatling guns, which could weigh as much as 60 pounds. If you remove the carriage for tripod use, it lightens the TAGG by around 15 pounds and cuts the height and width to less than 9 inches each without the crank handle....
