Anyone ever build a gatling 22lr from the plans on the web?

I have recently gotten access to a machine shop and have always had this in the back of my mind...

I recall seeing plans that used modified 10/22 barrels but either way.....anyone have experience or advice they would share??

Thanks

You use to see a number of these a few years back. Personally saw one at a Gunshow. There were two complete barreled, 10/22 actions. They looked cheap and jury rigged. I also recall, someone selling a kit to make these up. Other than that, have never shot one nor familiar with anyone who has. ...

Be Safe !!!

Are these the plans?

There's a dual gun setup, too.
It's made from a commercial kit and two functional Ruger 10-22s.
It uses a hand crank gizmo that operates the triggers in semi auto fashion.
So, it doesn't really look like a Gatlin, more like a twin barreled bench rifle.
Kind of neat, though.

There is an actual Gatling, professionally made, but it costs about the price of a late model car.
