Most of the time there is a firing pin, which hits the back of a bullet when the trigger is pulled. The firing pin hits the back of the bullet and ignites the gunpowder inside of the bullet. The bullet then becomes a small unguided rocket and hits something in the direction the gun was aimed at.

No. Machine guns are fully automatic. With Gatling guns, you have put in bullets and crank at the same time but with machine guns, you have to put in bullets, place them on the ground and let them activate and they will open fire. Gatling guns cannot fire automatically, you have carry them and hold them so they can fire.

Will machine guns be able to beat Gatling guns?

Yes because machine guns are much better than gatling guns. With Gatling guns, you have to crank and put bullets in at the same time so they can open fire but with machine guns, you don't have to crank them. Just put in bullets, place them on the ground and let them activate. If you have Gatling guns, you have to carry them and hold them but they are very heavy and also not fully automatic. With machine guns, you do not have to carry them and hold to let them open fire. Some machine guns are heavy and light but they open fire automatically without having someone to crank but even though, machine guns are faster and much stronger than Gatling guns. They can fire up to thousand to 1 million rounds per minute while Gatling guns can fire up to 60 rounds per minute. Winner: Machine guns have beaten Gatling guns.
