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:
“... in the fierce competition of modern society the only class left in the country possessing leisure is that of women supported in easy circumstances by husband or father, and it is to this class we must look for the maintenance of cultivated and refined tastes, for that value and pursuit of knowledge and of art for their own sakes which can alone save society from degenerating into a huge machine for making money, and gratifying the love of sensual luxury.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
“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)
