Message-ID: <35156@mimsy.umd.edu> Date: 3 Jun 91 00:33:43 GMT Sender: magnum@mimsy.umd.edu Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana Lines: 17 Approved: gun-control@cs.umd.edu I'm looking for some references on the Gatling gun, particularly design, history, and US military use. Information on the original as well as modern versions of Dr. Gatling's famous invention would be appreciated, especially patent numbers or references to drawings. Does anyone know of a source of Gatling gun replicas (firing and non-firing)? Please reply via email and I will summarize if there is interest. tnks&rgds, mrmike -- mrmike * a/k/a Mike McCaughey * U of IL/ECE/ODP -- -- mrmike@uiuc.edu * mjmg6717@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu -- - + Pray for me.
