Description
About-
============
The M134 rotary canon has for several decades been the poster-child for gatling-derived aircraft and static-emplacement weapon systems. Despite the overally simple design concepts, it’s a clockwork nightmare. The original models by GE too had notable hangups relating to feed reliability, making safe, and inadvertant chainfire. The solutions were provided by both DeGroat Tactical and Dillon Aerospace (the G and D variants respectively), introducing a clutch, improved delinker and feed chutes.

These improvements were not added to the Predator OR Terminator 2 handheld Miniguns, and this model fixed that. That is to say this is a MODERN M134D, on an updated rendition of the “Ol’ Painless” Handheld Minigun from Predator(hence "epilator"), and with some of the limitations of Arma’s handling in mind. Additionally, the M134 as depicted here has 2 fire modes- 1 with the lowest possible real-life ROF of the minigun(around 1300 RPM), plus one more cinematic one with a slightly more bassy firing sound and about only 1000 RPM.

As a cautionary note about unrealism of of the weapon - You can attach vanilla optics and side attachments to the weapon

Classnames-
HLC_wp_M134Painless - M134D on Man-portable Custom-built Carrying rig. Aka M134D "Epilator"
hlc_500rnd_762x51_Belt - 500 Round magazine of 7.62x51mm rounds.
hlc_500rnd_762x51_Cinematic - 500 Round magazine of 7.62x51mm rounds, with explosive value for cinematic dramatic effect. (Wouldn't recommend for normal use, KILLS THE ♥♥♥♥ OUT OF FRAME RATE)
