Machine Revolvers
A Machine Revolver is a firearm based on the actions of an automatic revolver but with the capabilities of rapid full-automatic fire. This concept is also intended as an alternative to the water jackets found on early machine guns, which would lack the effort of changing barrels on GPMGs during a heavy firefight in a battlefield environment. Although it appears, It must be noted that Machine Revolvers are not in any way related to Gatling guns and its derivatives as they are usually in the form of general purpose machine guns that changes barrels/chambers for each shot, however they are not exactly but somewhat closer to revolver cannons.

“A multitude of little superfluous precautions engender here a population of deputies and sub-officials, each of whom acquits himself with an air of importance and a rigorous precision, which seemed to say, though everything is done with much silence, “Make way, I am one of the members of the grand machine of state.””
—Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)
“Anything goes in Wichita. Leave your revolvers at police headquarters and get a check.”
