自从火器被发明并应用于战场后,人们就一直为提高其威力而努力。1380年出现了一种11管排枪;15世纪～16世纪出现了管风琴枪;18世纪出现了20的管风琴枪,18世纪初在英国还出现了转膛枪,据说这是加特林机枪的先驱。这些武器在战场上取得了一定的成功,但是它们的缺陷也很明显,如体积很庞大、使用不方便、射速低、在野战条件下应用不便等。这促使人们对新式速射武器始终保持着强烈的向往。
Since firearms were invented and applied to the battlefield, people have been working to improve their power. In 1180 an 11-gauge row of guns appeared; in the 15th and 16th centuries there were organ guns; in the 18th century 20 organ guns appeared and in the early eighteenth century there were also rifles in the UK, which are said to be pioneers of Gatling machine guns . These weapons have had some success on the battlefield, but their drawbacks are also obvious, such as bulky, inconvenient to use, low rate of fire and inconvenient application under field conditions. This has prompted a strong desire for new rapid fire weapons.
