The first few takes were ball-on-a-chain, yes. In the end, the kibble problem (Excuse the Transformers Term) got too extreme, so I went for an option that has more concealable sections.

To be honest, firing at a "Real" Minigun speed is more or less a "Supermode" for this weapon, given how overkill using an RPM of roughly 3000 on simple Beowolves is, not to mention a triple-barreled weapon will still rapidly overheat when submitted to that kind of stress (It's still 1000 a barrel). On average, it fires more like a standard gun. Sorry I didn't mention this earlier.

The Box Magazine is I'd estimate, based on the M249 SAW (Once again, the basis for the weapon's gun form) a 200-round Box Magazine in reality. In an anime-style series, where Bottomless Magazines is in full effect, it's more or less an excuse to go full auto for an hour like Rambo. As for the other problem, I've added a "Rail" to the box, which has the ammo essentially going in a "Snake" pattern inside the box instead of just being piled in, and a similiar rail that goes from the box to the chamber instead of the regular "Loose" belt.

If you want, I'll bring my current concept art out (It's still in the preliminaries because I thought I'd need some other opinions on it before finishing it).
