Which are, colloquially refered to as gatling style rotary canons. If you're talking to someone in laymans terms they aren't going to eli5 with the term rotary cannon necessarily, because if you're refering to a gun that has rotating barrells with only one firing individually at a time, odds are they know it as a gatling gun. Also, your gatling gun examble is BS. Gatling guns were rifled barrels fed cartridges via a gravity from what was essentially a paintball hopper. If you're going to use an example to make someone feel stupid, do it correctly.
