Machine Gun (Rapture)

The Machine Gun is the ultimate spray-and-pray weapon, firing a rapid spray of bullets. Very effective against groups or a close range.

The machine gun remains an effective weapon throughout the game. Coupled with antipersonnel ammo, the machine gun can quickly kill any Splicer. It is also effective against Rosies when shot at a distance; however, Bouncers, with their melee attack, generally kill the player before enough shots are fired. Unlike most of the other guns, the machine gun does not pair well with Electrobolt or Winter Blast, as the gun's bullets are weak individually and the target quickly revives before much damage can be dealt.
