Metralleta is the Spanish word for a submachine gun, and the Spanish search terms around this clip show it is mainly found by Spanish-speaking users looking for a ready-to-play gunfire effect. With no clear single film, game or creator attached to it, the sound has spread as a generic soundboard clip rather than a famous quote or scene. Its longer seven-second burst makes it more useful than a single shot effect, so editors keep reusing it for action parodies, shooter game edits and exaggerated reaction videos.
About this sound
A rapid metralleta machine gun sound effect with sustained automatic fire, used in action scenes, gaming edits, prank videos and meme soundboards.
This is a close, aggressive burst of automatic gunfire that fills the full seven seconds with a relentless rattling rhythm. The shots are sharp, metallic and tightly packed, with no voice or music underneath, so the firing stays front and centre from the first round to the last. It feels intense and chaotic rather than clean or cinematic, which is why it lands so well as an exaggeration. Played over an ordinary moment it instantly turns the scene into a fake shootout, making the joke about how wildly over the top the reaction is.
