This large cumbersome weapon is effectively four stripped [[SRD:Repeating Heavy Crossbow|repeating heavy crossbows]] attached to a rotating barrel. As part of the motion of rotating the barrel, the crossbows are reloaded and ready to fire again, allowing for repeated consecutive use at a decent rate of fire. A gatling crossbow is an ungainly weapon, typically held by a rail. A gatling crossbow can fire 60 bolts before needing to be reloaded, which takes 1 minute (or a full-round action which provokes an attack of opportunity with [[SRD:Rapid Reload|rapid reload]]). 

A gatling crossbow has the [https://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment/weapons/technological-weapons/ semi-automatic] property in the hands of a proficient wielder.

Because it it ungainliness, the user of a gatling crossbow take a –4 armor check penalty while wielding it, and if her [[Strength]] is less than 19 (or 17 for a Small or smaller gatling crossbow), she takes a –2 penalty on attacks with it.
