I wish there was a picture of the other side so that we could see if it has a hand crank. It probably does, though. You talking about a Gatling Gun? It certainly isn't a Gatling, which had four (five?) or more barrels which rotated. This one has two barrels side by side. I rather suspect it might be a Gardner gun (which replaced the Gatling in British service). -- Andy Breen ~ Interplanetary Scintillation Research Group http://users.aber.ac.uk/azb/ "Who dies with the most toys wins" (Gary Barnes)
