Tippmann arms?

Not dure there was no text. I have an issue with the use of Glock mags. Glock mags are for Glocks and not ARs or this or any other firearm. Just me, I am sick of the cheap way out when it comes to mags.

Gatling Gun

Yup Tippmann Armory.
Agreed about the mags, especially for something that costs $5,600 but then again.. what's the most common complaint/request every time someone talks about a new carbine in pistol calibers? "Does it take glock mags??"

Not a gun but unusual. Polymere cased ammo..........

I like Glock mags because they work and it's nice to have guns that use common mags. Would you like your new S&W folding 9mm to run the 17-round S&W mags or a 33-round Glock mag?

Neither, I do not own or plan to own a S&W folding 9mm. Owning guns that use a common mag is a cheap way out. Just my opinion.

Cordier-Minie 12mm (approximately .48 Caliber) muzzleloader, French circa 1860. It has a few unusual features including: Barrel is only 16" long (starts just ahead of the forearm), & the nipple, which can be seen on the bottom of the barrel, is struck by a coil-spring activated rod that is cocked by pulling back the front 'trigger'. The barrel has a twist rate of 1:32" I've been unable to find the bullet design that it was designed for, so I'm still experimenting with different conical projectiles & powder charges to find the best accuracy.

Welcome to the forum...
Neat rifle there for sure.
Nice to see another fella who likes muzzle loaders.

Before the UZI the Czech ZK-476, designed by the brothers that later developed the CZ-75.

Almost sure this is a photoshop, so I am cheating here since this is almost surely not a real gun - but I think something kind of close to this could be done. Or at least a variation of a Thompson that used Glock mags
