Four rifle bodies sit inside every minigun, and no blueprint can be learned. That makes it the priciest loot in your box and a hard keep-or-recycle call.
Hold a minigun and you are holding four AKs' worth of rifle bodies. The row marks it not researchable, so nobody crafts one; it comes from loot, as its item page says, and the calculator only shows what a replacement would take. That bill never gets paid.
That is what makes the recycler tempting. The ordinary one gives back two bodies every time, not on a coin toss, plus half the pipes and a few springs. Add springs and HQM and those are two assault rifles, guns you can repair and rebuild.
Keep it if your fights happen at home. It reloads only near a Level 2 workbench or better and can't be repaired, so it belongs on a roof during an online raid and almost nowhere else. A group that roams more than it defends gets more out of the two bodies.
