The Minigun, known affectionately as "Sasha" or "Sascha",[1][2][3] is the default primary weapon for the Heavy. It is an enormous Gatling-style machine gun with a large rotating barrel, complete with a large white underslung ammunition case and two handles.
Firing 4 bullets at the same time at a rate of 10x a second, the Minigun can quickly rip through opponents at short range. However, the damage falls off quickly over long distances and the bullets are subject to a wide cone of fire.
The weapon requires a short period of time to spin up and down before and after firing; during this period and while firing the Heavy cannot jump or switch weapons, has his speed reduced to approximately 47% of his regular movement speed, and cannot move at all while crouching. The spin up can be initiated in midair to avoid losing speed until landing, allowing the Heavy to jump quickly around corners while ready to fire. There is a 50% damage penalty that starts when the gun is revved, decreasing linearly over the course of one second until full damage is reached. Accuracy is also reduced for the same time, with the cone of fire tightening over one second.
Players can begin spinning the barrel by holding down alt-fire, which does not fire any ammunition until primary fire is pressed. This can allow the Heavy to quickly respond to enemies when waiting in one position or to briefly hold his fire without fully spinning the gun down.
The Minigun deals 15% less damage to a level 2 Sentry Gun, and 20% less damage to a level 3 Sentry Gun.

Unused content
- There is a remastered version of the Assault Cannon (Classic) in the game files. In both
v_minigun
andw_minigun
, all the textures from the Assault Cannon can be located. - A model of a shell casing is present in the files as
miniguncasing.mdl
, which appeared in both Trailer 1 and Trailer 2.
Bugs
- Occasionally, when the Minigun is being fired as the player dies, the weapon firing effects and sound are still shown/heard while the player is waiting to respawn. Once the player respawns, the Minigun appears to be firing upwards, it then stops "shooting", and moves up and down several times, then continues in its normal state.
- Holding secondary fire and tapping primary fire with one bullet left causes the Minigun to play the firing animation loop despite having no ammo. This is visible in third person and by other players.
- Sometimes, the Minigun does not spin in client view while revving up. This might happen if revving up the gun using secondary fire immediately after taunting. This can be fixed by re-revving the gun.
- This can also be fixed by firing the gun.
- When holding the primary fire button during a taunt the Minigun's muzzle flash turns invisible.
- Attempting to switch to another weapon slot immediately after unrevving the gun causes the Minigun model to be replaced with the weapon that was being switched to. Only visible client side, on the player's world model.
Trivia
- In Meet the Heavy, the Heavy says that the Minigun weighs 150 kilograms, or roughly 330.75 pounds. A real, portable Minigun weighs around 39 kilograms, or roughly 86 pounds.
- How the Minigun is revved up and fired is debatable. The Minigun poster purchasable in the Valve Store depicts a trigger in the far back handle. In other media sources, instead of this trigger, a small button is often shown on the front handle. Neither of these possible triggers are visible on the in-game models.
- The Heavy claims that it costs 400,000 dollars to fire the Minigun for twelve seconds, presumably not counting the spin-up time. At the claimed 10,000 rounds per minute, the cost of each bullet would be $200. In-game, the Minigun fires 4 rounds every .105 second, or 2,284 bullets per minute. Going by in-game rates, the cost of each bullet would be $875.66 apiece.
- In the Xbox 360 manual for The Orange Box, and in the Meet the Heavy video description, the Minigun is referred to as the Chain Gun.[4][5]
- It is revealed in the Meet the Director comic that Heavy sleeps in a bed next to Sasha and Heavy says that he is embarrassed on how small the bed is.
