Just kidding. But I thought it was nice to see that Switzerland is still a pretty liberal country regarding guns and you can buy fun stuff, if you have the means. Add 12% for US$ nowadays. (And no I’m not buying it).

Couldn't you imagine the looks you'd get going through town towing it ? " But officer I was on my way to the range ." Don't know if that would fly . That thing looks like it'd be a blast . It seems weird to see something like that made in the US and imported to Europe . Do they sell them here ? Of course you'd have to reload to be able to shoot it , Mon-Fri so you could shoot on Saturday .

There are brass framed/pedestal mount/police model 45-70 Gatling guns for sale these days. One reproduction, lightly used is listed at $20,000 US$. (about 30 KM from my home!)

If I had the 20 grand it would be at my house.

Under US law, a Gatling gun is not a "Machine Gun"! No transfer, No Tax Stamp., you do need a clear record (like all firearms owners) and of course, a big checkbook. The other item you'll need, is a progressive loader!

AT my first time at an OGCA meeting (early 1980) there was a carriage mounted Gatling gun in 30-40 Krieg with the ammo caseon for $7000US and no serious lookers. If only, if only!

You wouldn't have any problem with tailgaters.
