The gun is 96 studs long – that’s 69 cm / 27 inches. This makes it somewhat less than portable or “tactical” – wielding it is more “UT2004” than “Counterstrike”, but that’s great, I mean who hasn’t wanted to re-enact Doom with a chaingun of their own? It’s rate-of-fire is sensational. The ability to carpet a room in rubber in a few seconds is wonderful. Unlike commercial hand-wound rubber band Gatling guns, this has a trigger and can be fired both continuously or in short bursts (though I must admit, the desire to empty the entire thing in a single long burst with a cry of “Suppressing Fire” is normally too strong to ignore.)
