Will machine guns be able to beat Gatling guns?
Yes because machine guns are much better than gatling guns. With Gatling guns, you have to crank and put bullets in at the same time so they can open fire but with machine guns, you don't have to crank them. Just put in bullets, place them on the ground and let them activate. If you have Gatling guns, you have to carry them and hold them but they are very heavy and also not fully automatic. With machine guns, you do not have to carry them and hold to let them open fire. Some machine guns are heavy and light but they open fire automatically without having someone to crank but even though, machine guns are faster and much stronger than Gatling guns. They can fire up to thousand to 1 million rounds per minute while Gatling guns can fire up to 60 rounds per minute. Winner: Machine guns have beaten Gatling guns.
