A '''machine gun''' is an automatic weapon that is capable of a rapid rate of sustained fire.
The predecessor to the modern machine [[gun]] was developed in 1718, by James Puckle, an Englishman. This gun, known as the "Puckle gun", could fire around nine bullets per minute. However, the Puckle gun was a flintlock weapon, and cannot be considered a machine gun in the modern sense of the word.
