"Vehicle" mounted gatlings go WAY back. Sit down for this one.......

How about a gatling mounted on a camel? Yup, they used to...

You can even remove any damaged bolts and the gun will continue to fire on the remaining ones. It is quite a interesting mechanism and design....

The 22 started with the D&E plans which I found out had many issues and most built never worked. The RGG plans will build a working gun but I had...
