Notes
The Minigun made a notable Hollywood appearance in the movie Predator as a hand held weapon. However, the minigun, associated equipment and ammunition is far too heavy to be employed in this fashion. It is typically mounted on a helicopter or armored vehicle. The few in private hands in the U.S.A. bring a hefty premium, in excess of $350,000.00. This weapon is available for rental events from our partners at llmachineguns.com.
