The Maxim MG08 was a German heavy machine gun used during the First World War, and this clip presents its distinctive sustained fire as heard in Sergio Leone's 1971 western Duck, You Sucker!, also released as A Fistful of Dynamite. In the film, heavy weapons help give the Mexican Revolution setting its chaotic, large-scale feel. Soundboard users have since reused the long burst as a ready-made war effect, because a single continuous machine-gun track is easier to edit than stitching together many short shots, and it can be cut cleanly for a reload.
