Description

A machine gun refers to any type of firearm designed for sustained automatic fire. This includes anything from the massive, powered gatling_gun to the hand-held submachine_gun.

A light machine gun may be easily mistaken for an assault_rifle, particularly in cases such as this Machine guns can be distinguished by a longer barrel, larger magazine, and the presence of a bipod.

An assault_rifle is considered an entirely different class of weapon.
