One round per second in a standard military machine gun? That's a
pretty
low standard. Machine guns typically have much higher rates of fire
than
that, about ten times higher.

Probably from the same reporter that covers aviation accidents, highway
traffic snarls, bar mitzvahs, etc. Not well versed on the subject. Even
the heavy M2 Browning .50 fires at 600rpm.

Also, compare/contrast with the GE gatling gun of the '60s.
