An automatic (rapidfire) weapon first developed in the late 19th century. The recoil from the first bullet fired resets the mechanism to fire again. The next bullet is pushed into the barrel from the magazine - either by gravity (as in early weapons) or a tensed spring. Revolutionised warfare by making it notoriously easy to mow down large numbers of attacking infantry at decent range, was very handy when conquering spear-armed peoples. Went on to a much longer and bloodier history as the design was refined.
Comes in a variety of calibres, weights and rates of fire, from sub-machine guns (use pistol bullets to reduce size and weight) to light machine guns (use assault rifle bullets for compatability and to reduce size and weight) and heavy machine guns (sheer firepower, no compromises).
SMGs and LMGs are meant to be carried. Anything larger, and you're doing a Rambo.

The M2 machine gun, the original and the best. Used by the US from WWII right through to now. Ever wondered why the MGs on the top of Sherman and Abrams tanks look so similar? They're M2s.

Get the machine gunmug. The next step up from being a Lokyr. Someone who generally spells names wrong and likes to argue about goldfish and the like.
Jim: Dude, you're so rude to me and you keep spelling my name Jym. You're a total L-Gun.
Tom: Sorry dude, I just suck at life basically. I wish I weren't an L-Gun

Get the L-Gunmug. Similar to Finger Pointing. A knee-jerk reaction to assign
blame to someone in a team setting for a series
of mistakes, unmet goals, etc. that cause a serious
failure. Once the Blame Gun has been pointed
and fired, the victim may be let go, written up, demoted,
shunned, etc. Ironically, often times the shooter is as
much to blame for a failure as the victim.

that big account."
Moe: "The boss pointed the Blame Gun at me, but
I convinced him it was Fred's fault, so Fred
got shot instead."
Joe : "Well played."

Get the Gun and runmug. When one flexes their bicep muscles and points (or acknowledges aforementioned muscle) and states: "These are not for violence...they are just to send a message."
Some douche bag that spends way too much time at the gym and thinks that girls enjoy large biceps, but small calves, points at his biceps and states "check out these guns" or "welcome to the gun show"...these said people are lame, lack wit, and are the definition of dbags. However, a clever girl (or gay man) could potentially say in response to said DBag "These are my flare guns. They are not for violence...they are just to send a message."
