Are Miniguns Real

Are handheld mini guns real?

The soldier named Blane had a handheld minigun, and every time I watch it I try to figure out the logistics and ergonomics. The m-134 is a real gun, but its typically mounted and fires up to 6,000 rounds per minute.

Can you legally get a minigun?

It is legal for a US citizen at least 21 years of age to own a mini gun. In the US it is legal for one to purchase any fully automatic weapon that was manufactured before 1986, if they can find one. The ATF ruled that a mini gun is classified under the category of machine guns.
