I'm not that familiar with MILHIST naming conventions for guns, but is M197 Gatling gun the best name possible? - BillCJ 07:32, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

First reference http://www.gdatp.com/factsheets/A017_M-197.pdf (links to PDF doc) is no longer valid, 404 error. Replacing with current link http://www.gdatp.com/armament_systems/mbw_M-197.html which contains the referenced 1500 RPM specification.

"Marine pilots initially reported an alarmingly high jam rate (sometimes greater than 30%)" This is not cited, and it's not obvious what it even means. And its not a "jam rate", it's a "rate of malfunction". "Jamming" is an informal term for a weapon malfunction. Anyway, what does "a 30% jam rate" mean? 30% of all shots cycled don't feed properly? That it jams 3 out of ten times you try to fire it? That you can expect at least one malfunction at some point during 3 out of ten missions? That 30% of helicopters have suffered from at least one feed system malfunction at some point during their service? It's basically meaningless unless the context is given.
