Bu silah hakkında

• ◆It is to note that real miniguns are only designed to be mounted weapons. A modified man-portable version would be extremely impractical, and highly encumbering to be carried in a gunfight like a traditional firearm. The M134 weighs 85 pounds (39 kilograms) by itself, not counting the immense amount of ammunition it requires (~65 pounds (29 kg) for just 20 seconds' worth of firing); note that the rendition in GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories is based on a model that is even heavier (especially in terms of ammunition). Moreover, the electric drive motor requires an external power source.
• ◆The XM214 Microgun was an attempt at a man portable rotary cannon, designed in 1966, by General Electric. It weighed 25 pounds (11 kilograms), used lighter 5.56×45mm ammunition and had a rate of fire between 6,000 and 10,000 RPM. Despite being much more portable than other models, it was still designed with an external power source and was intended to be fired in a mounted position. The weapon was ultimately rejected by the US Military, but a successor, the XM556 Microgun, is currently in development. This variant is scaled down further, weighing only about 16 pounds (7 kilograms), and has a rate of fire between 2000 and 6000 RPM.
• ◆Originally, the barrels would have two barrel clamps (circle-shaped parts holding the barrels) besides the ones at the end of these. The current version only has one thick clamp. Most pre-release materials, as well as the HUD icons, depict the original version of the Minigun.
• ◆As of the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update, a rare Golden Minigun inside a Weapons & Ammo crate can be purchased through the SecuroServ network for $23,000. It is apparently made of 24 karat gold and cannot be used as a conventional weapon. It can be sold for $115,000. Interestingly, Brucie Kibbutz appears to be the buyer, as the company interested in purchasing the item is called 'BK Exec Lifestyle Ltd'.
• ◆Vehicle-mounted variations can be seen in various armed vehicles, most of them reusing the same model with certain changes.
• ◆The versions used first in the Valkyrie as side minigun turrets are technically based on the GAU-17/A, a pintle-mounted version widely used for gunship helicopters like the UH-1 Iroquois (with the Valkyrie being based upon a modernized version of the said helicopter).
• ◆In GTA Online, as part of The Diamond Casino & Resort update, the player can buy the "Is It Suitable for Children?" painting for the Master Penthouse, which depicts a minigun, with the Swedish text "Detta är inte en minigun", which roughly translates to "This is not a minigun". This is a reference to René Magritte's The Treachery of Images, a painting of a pipe with the text "Ceci n'est pas une pipe", the French for "This is not a pipe".
