The big gun
The multi-barreled Gatling-type gun used by the bank robbers is not a Vulcan. The receiver design doesn't seem anything like that of an M61, and the weapon clearly has eight barrels instead of six (the number on the M61). I remember reading an article on this movie's special effects in Cinefex back in '06 where one of the CGI artists mentioned that the gun's muzzle flash was computer-generated. Another hint is that the shell casings dropped by the weapon appear to be empty .50 BMG shells with NO crimping (as one would expect to see if the weapon were a real gun firing blanks). It looks to me like the weapon is completely fabricated and doesn't actually fire (live rounds or blanks), but was simply designed to drop the .50-cal shell casings on cue, while the muzzle flash is CGI. -MT2008 23:39, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
