That gun alone could prolong the .22 shortage for years to come.

Well at least now we know where all of the .22lr ammo is going...

I always thought this was the most fun one could have with a .22 I want one bad.

[ItWasntMe]

Yah, both those videos are neat.

I could start the next big .22 shortage of I had one.

I used to really want a scale m2 in .22lr. It would have been a hoot, and gophers be damned! But with the cost of .22lr now, it's much less appealing. Feeding a full auto machine is what's stopping me from getting one.

The other working scale model I always envisioned was a MK19 grenade launcher in 12ga. entertaining even with wood or rubber pellets.

Like this?

Kind of, but it would have to look the part perfectly, and the cyclic rate would have to drop considerably to match the MK19. Belt fed shotgun without the perfect scale model would be wasteful, IMO. If the model truly looked and operated the same as it's 40mm big brother though, you'd have a really neat piece that would not only be fun to play with, but would start some seriously cool conversations.
Kinda makes me wish I had a machine shop and an SOT.  I'd make scale models of everything I could track down prints for.
M1919-.22lr
M2-.22lr
M16 (a true scale version, not a damn caliber conversion)-.22lr
MK19-12 GA
M134-.22lr
etc. 
The scale would be set by the cartridge. So ALL parts would be miniaturized to match the new round. Basically, if you did a Thompson smg in .22lr, it wouldn't end up as dramatically smaller as a M2, due to cartridge size difference. My pet project in my head for the last decade..

like the 1919 here

Rather than a 12ga MK19, you could do a 12ga MK18, the crank fire predecessor to the MK19. Roughly the same fire rate, in a non-NFA (being manually operated) Vietnam era package. A Scale MK18 would be quite a feat of engineering too.

Would that end up being a DD?

[steve2md]

Probably, since it'd neither be designed to be fired from the shoulder nor meet the length requirements. I suppose it could be done in .410 to fix that problem though
