The Ironhead Autogun shares the same structural profile as the [[Ironhead Heavy Stubber]] and the [[Ironhead Boltgun]]. It is a two-handed heavy machine gun that is designed to be a heavy weapon because of how big and bulky. It is used by the [[Drill Master]]s and [[Drill-Kyn]]s of the [[Ironhead Squat Prospectors]] from [[Necromunda]].

As a natural twin-linked weapon, the Autogun unlike conventional Autoguns, is very unwieldy to carry. But this is alright when you come in packing with lots of [[dakka]]. As it is twin-linked, conventional wisdom goes that this should be put in the [[combi-weapon]] category, however, the reality is that this Autogun is somewhat similar to the [[Storm bolter]], as it is not two weapons duct taped together, but a single weapon system that just so happens to have two barrels.

What this means is that rather than firing each barrel separately in tandem via a hotwired single trigger mechanism, the gun fires two rounds at the same time, due to the fact that the entire firing mechanism being fused together. To compensate for the sudden increase in firepower, the Ironhead variant sports a huge drum-fed cylindrical magazine; holding a shit ton of ammunition at the expanse of weight. Fortunately for the Squats, they just so happen to be strong enough that such cumbersome weight is a non-issue. This design stays consistent with the rest of the Ironhead's weapons, even their ''pistols'' sport the same double-barrel, drum-fed magazine design.

Compared to the Heavy Stubber or Boltgun cousins, the Autogun does not fire as fast as the former nor hit as hard as the latter. The only thing going for it is that it is very cheap to manufacture and does not cost as much, allowing your Squats to launch a hail of cheap yet potent [[dakka]]. Yes, it is a bit underwhelming as it sounds, but this is still a SAW you are looking at.
