    My next major mod

    Yes, I think this will look quite nice on top of my VX.

    Um, wouldn't the RIDICULOUS amount of spent shells spewing from that thing scratch the paint? Gotta worry about the important stuff y'know.

    You haven’t done that mod yet? Hell, that’s VX mod 101 stuff.

    Yeah, I think I will have to build some sort of brass gutter so all the shells can be collected or diverted away from the VX. That part should be easy. It's rest of the mod I haven't figured out yet. I guess I should start with some of the sunroof threads.

    Yeah, I have heard, that even if you go through all the red tape to make it legal to own one as a civilian, the cost of a minigun can be well over $100k. And then yes, ammo being spent at that rate is more than I can imagine. It's fun to dream though.

    Dude, there's a recession on if you haven't heard! You need to divert the casings back inside into a collection bin so you can reload them later!

    I think that contraption will leak in the rain. :-)

    I can imagine messing with that particular piece of equipment could have DIRE consequences...not so much from perforating unintended targets, but after discovering how much fun it is, you would eventually have to quit your job so that you could devote more time to reloading...
