Jep, it is basically saying a Mingun which shoots Laser rays powered by Micro Fusion Cells.
One can find it in Special Encounters IIRC.

As said, I don't know it exactly.

But I think I already heard from players that they stumbled randomly upon those Special Encounters, where you can find stuff like a Bozar, Gauss Pistol etc. ;)

As far I know there is possibility to find only Gauss Pistol and Vindicator Minigun. Bozar was found in dead guard after WIPE, that was saying the seller.

U can farm Gatling lasers from Enclave, but for real it is much worth than a laser rifle coz it's still have low damage against metal/combat armors and  eats about 10 mfc for 1 burst. Ofc u can pwn 1 bluesuit/leather jacket from gatling laser for >500 dmg...

 hmm i think in that case it will be better to kill 10 bluesuits/leather jackets from laser rifle crits instead of 1 gatling burst

But... this power of 500dmg! ;D
Anyway, I've never though it's possible to get this item, if it's so "easy" to get (just kill patrol of enclave) why nobody is selling/wearing it?

Right! I always like fight for Gatling Laser boost! Penetrate or no burst spread will make this weapon more useful, just listen:

Avenger - 35 hexes - 70-100 dmg to a Brotherhood Armor
Gatling Laser - 40 hexes - 100 - 120 dmg to a Brotherhood Armors,

Avenger - very close range - big amount of damage, but
Gatling Laser will still be 100 - 120.

Maybe? ;)

Gatling laser is even more ridiculous that the M60 - for god's sake, IT EATS 10 MFCs!!! Its painful to shoot one MFC with plasma rifle and miss or not score a critical. Only way i see to balance gatling laser, and that would be great, would be to make it eat SEC. Well, maybe nerf the damage abit, or make it eat 15 SEC but burst only 10 shots.

oh yeah I forgot to say bout gatling. My bad. It used to be my favourite weapon in F2. In 2238 i havent use one in such a long time and even havent seens one that I simply forgot about it while making this thread hehe. :P

Anyways guys. I got my energy sniper/crafter to lvl 21 And I'm pretty much disappointed in it. Rerolling a bigguner that will have 3 charisma and 180 repair + and still be a semi-powerbuild with 2 bursts per turn :/

I don't think a weapon's usefulness should be dependent on armour bypasses. Nor should most armours be so incredibly resistant to energy. Why would the governments of the world produce weapons that were weaker against armour than conventional guns?
