A [[gun]] built for sustained automatic fire. Machine guns are distinguished from [[assault rifle]]s and [[battle rifle]]s by size and ammunition capacity. Machine guns are divided into three categories: * [[Light machine gun]]s use intermediate-power cartridges, and are usually operated by one person. * Medium machine guns use full-power rifle cartridges and serve in both infantry and emplaced roles. Unlike light machine guns, these guns require a crew to operate, due to their bulk. * [[Heavy machine gun]]s fire large-caliber cartridges-between 12 and 15 mm. Because of their size, they are typically restricted to stationary positions. h4. See also * [[gun]] * [[List of weapons]] Updated by bot Sun, Sep 18 '22, 02:55 |
