I think the this section needs to be explained a bit more clearly. Such as that chain guns only have one barrel that all ammunition is feed through and a gatling gun has multiple barrels. -- Simpsons fan 66 07:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
As I understand it the AH-64s "Chain gun" Had three barrels, but was still referred to as a chain gun, how is it then that a chain gun only has one barrel? '''Aryeonos''' ( talk) 02:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
A chain gun is NOT a "type of machine gun". As is mentioned (slightly in error) in the article a machine gun operates by using energy from the fired cartridge to operate the gun. A chain gun does not do this.
Then the article says machine guns are recoil operated. Most sub-machine guns are but most machine guns are gas operated.
The gun does not eject "cartridges" unless there was a fail-to-fire, it ejects casings. A cartridge is a COMPLETE unit; casing, primer, powder, bullet.
