Re: Chain-gun (or not)

In Response To: Re: Chain-gun (or not) (Quirel)

: So, the chain doesn't actually feed rounds into the gun. It's just a more
: reliable way of cycling the bolt, as compared to gas-pistons or roller
: locking.

Oh I wasn't thinking that the rounds were somehow travelling along or with the chain, I just meant that I wasn't sure how the rotation of the chain eventually caused rounds to get fed in. Anyway, thanks for the explanation and pic.

: Wouldn't surprise me; it's as big of a misnomer as believing that
: "RPGs" are a distinct class of anti-tank weapon. In reality,
: it's just a backronym for the Russian term for "Hand-held anti-tank
: grenade launcher".

I didn't know that Russian connection.

: Oh, and what do you get when you cross an en-block clip with a revolver?
: Something magical.

Do you have one of those things then?
