Nemesis' Minigun.

There is no way the Minigun itself would weigh 60-80 pounds with cut down barrels and some aluminum casing added onto it. A real steel Dillon or GE model is about 57 pounds, and the Titanium model is about 45. So 60-80 pounds would be pretty heavy for a Minigun.

We have the armorer here on site and we are going by what he has said. Frankly having picked up a stripped down Minigun before 60 to 80 pounds is about right.Rockwolf66 15:59, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

It may have been 60-80 pounds, but that isn't "light" for a Minigun, given that GE and Dillon, you know, the guys who make the weapon, claim it's about 60 pounds at the most, minus ammo. Now if you're including the weight of the chute and the ammo, maybe it weighs about that much, but it should be clarified that the entire system weighed 60-80 pounds versus the gun itself which probably weighed about 50.

Also, who deleted the info I posted about the way the gun was setup in the movie and supposed fire rate of the weapon? Was there any reason for that? I thought it was interesting that the movie was edited so that the weapon appears to have a very consistent fire rate of 4400 RPM. It's not something you would notice unless you were going scene by scene and looking for it, which suggests to me it was deliberate, rather than coincidental.
