The Gatling Gun was created during the Civil War. It is a multi cylinder gun usually with six barrels it could wipe out an entire squad of 15 men only using 2 men to work it. Although it was a great weapon on the battle field it often would easily get jammed or malfunction is some way. I think the Gatling gun was a huge jump in our military technology. Even today they use a more high powered Gatling gun to wipe out 300 men instead of the original 15.
