A minigun typically fires at a rate of around 2,000 to 6,000 rounds per minute, depending on the specific model and configuration. This high rate of fire is achieved through the use of multiple rotating barrels and an electric motor to cycle the ammunition. The minigun's rapid-fire capability makes it a formidable weapon in combat situations.
The original M134, made by General Electric, had two rates of fire - 3,000 rounds per minute, or 6,000 rounds per minute. Some variants fire at a fixed rate, which may be 3,000 or 4,000 rounds per minute, depending on that exact variant.
For movies such as Predator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day, the miniguns used in those films had to be modified to fire at around 1/3 of their normal rate of fire, because - even with blanks - the recoil force if fired at the normal rate of fire would've knocked the actors down as they used them.
