Not sure but this is from X-Piratez (Xcom) which included a nifty backstory for spoofing the doom stuff in that game.

Doesn't have to do with the doom universe but it it is a cute explanation.

Huh now that you mention it I may have noticed this. However it doesnt solve the problem that the 2 nails per shot is not being accounted for in terms of actually seeing that many nails going downrange. Ive explained how this can be fixed (dummy nails).

Think about it... UAC commissions a highly reliable machinegun firing some kinda auto magnum ammo. Not only is it chain driven its also a reliable feed mechanism too. Some master machinist might have even made a multi-mag feed mechanism that literally uses multiple mags that can be reloaded at liesure (faster response than a belt fed, no need for belts, ubiquitous standard mags everywhere)

Since its multi-barreled you can lower the quality on the barrels, making them thinner and lighter weight. Which is compensated by it being air-cooled gatling design even if they dont spin that fast.
> meanwhile regenerative charging, and siphoning muzzle blast to assist with rotating the barrels means no big battery is necessary to keep it operating.

Having a machinegun like that which weighs 14 pounds would make it a really stable weapon. And any inaccuracy it experiences is probably a result of the character inherently moving it side to side like the early gatling guns did in order to improve hit chances.

> its not going to be long range effective just because of the ammunition used, but Fugk we're talking about short range firefights down corridors or possibly across courtyards
> even the UAC would've known they dont need anything past about 200 yards since rockets fill the midrange gap, and if they wanted long range they'd be employing railguns.
