Gatling Gun

No stats published for this weapon.

• ◆The Gatling Gun in Red Dead Redemption is based on the original 1862 Gatling gun, as designed by its namesake, Dr. Richard Gatling, but it lacks the hopper/magazine that is a necessary component to feed ammunition to the real world gun; whereas Marston fires the game weapon by himself, the actual gun required a fulltime loader.
• ◆Even though the Gatling Gun has unlimited ammunition, the person the player is working with will sometimes say that the player "needs the ammunition."
• ◆There is a very rare glitch in which the player uses the Gatling Gun immediately after the Bolt Action Rifle, and the Gatling will only fire one bullet every time the firing handle is turned.
• ◆After completing one or more missions involving the Gatling Gun, it will likely show in the Stats as the player's "favorite weapon". This may be due to the game counting weapon use by shots fired rather than kills or time.
