Airsoft games which involve having two teams fighting against each other, are no different. In these games, having a powerful gun can be a real advantage. Perhaps this inspired the creation of the airsoft minigun. The size and appearance of this gun will definitely intimidate ones opponents.

Just Like The Real Thing

Just like most airsoft guns in the market, an airsoft minigun is just like the ones used by the military and the police during their missions. It is a smaller version of the huge machine guns that are usually seen on helicopters or Raptor Assault vehicles. In fact, it was shown in the movie, Black Hawk Dawn.

With a length of inches and a height of inches, the M-A Vulcan Minigun has a very impressive and intimidating aura. With a velocity of fps to fps, this airsoft minigun is really made to scare off your opponents in an airsoft game. It fires -milimeter, .-gram steel BB's and -milimeter, plastic airsoft BB's at a speed of rounds per second. Plastic and metal BBs can be combined in the magazine. Of course, the use of metal BBs is not allowed in airsoft games.

How The Airsoft Minigun Works

The M-A can fire BB's that can cover a distance of to yards at a very high rate of fire because it is powered by both electricity and compressed air. The electricity is supplied by a battery which activates the motor that controls the rotation of the barrel as well as the application of the compressed air source.

This machine has a central hub, which contains a lot of cams and bolts, inside the receiver. It is made of Deleron, a frictionless polymer compound. With each revolution, the central hub picks up a BB from the central hopper in order to push it into the barrel. A separate bolt and loading system can be found in each barrel.

With a close bolt system and a collapsing design, damages are prevented from occurring in cases of misfires and misfeeds. As long as the trigger is pulled, this minigun constantly releases compressed air. As the barrel rotates, each barrel aligns with the part that expels compressed air whenever it reaches the eleven o'clock position. Of course, as each barrel is emptied, a new one is being loaded. This explains this machine's high rate of fire.

A High Price for Power

With the awesome power of an airsoft minigun, winning a game is no problem. Unfortunately, there is a high price for this gun. The reason for this is the high cost of materials needed for the research and development of this weapon. Also, since this custom-built weapon has a huge manufacturing cost, it is worth $,. The good news is that these weapons do end up becoming a collector's item. And, you might end up with a gun that is worth $,.
