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.

Famous quotes containing the words machine and/or revolvers:
“Goodbye, boys; I’m under arrest. I may have to go to jail. I may not see you for a long time. Keep up the fight! Don’t surrender! Pay no attention to the injunction machine at Parkersburg. The Federal judge is a scab anyhow. While you starve he plays golf. While you serve humanity, he serves injunctions for the money powers.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
“Anything goes in Wichita. Leave your revolvers at police headquarters and get a check.”
—For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
