Miniguns are commonly seen in the movies, notable examples being [[Terminator 2]] and [[Predator]], where miniguns can be seen exploding multiple police cars or cutting down whole areas of forest. In reality miniguns probably cannot actually cut down trees, and standard 7.62mm ball ammunition would not cause a car to explode, although a [[tracer]] round might if it hit the gas tank.
Various sources affirm that the professional Russian Dmitri Potapoff has come to enter in possession of one of these recently. Because it is obviously a threat to national security, the response of the NRA was immediate and clear : "We demand our government to equip every citizen with a similar weapon to ensure the safety of the State and of their own lives."
