I saw this Rube Goldberg monstrosity on a weird news forum today.

On that basis, not even sure if it is a real weapon or a joke.

If it is real, any idea of the maker?

It reminds me a bit of the mitrailleuse-something that sounded like a good idea on paper, but proved to be impractical at best.
 
City fighting is about the only useful application I can see for it.

Unfortunately my request to apply for a grant (and not the grant itself) for funds for a high speed camera to explore chain fires/sympathetic fire was turned down by the college.
