Overview |
A Machine Gun is a fully automatic mounted or portable firearm, usually designed to fire rounds in quick succession from an ammunition belt or large-capacity magazine.
In Mortal Kombat[]
Machine guns are used by police and military forces in Earthrealm. Jax Briggs has been known to use a Machine Gun in many of his appearances throughout the franchise. Officer Kurtis Stryker and Jax also had the weapon in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon.
Deathstroke is seen using a machine gun in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. Jax also still makes use of one in the same game, with his 2nd Fatality and his victory animation having him use it. With the latter even having Jax shoot the screen.
In the storyline of Mortal Kombat (2011), Kano and his Black Dragon thugs stole a large number of high-tech & modern weapons including shotguns, machine guns and rocket launchers, then sold them to Shao Kahn, Shang Tsung and the Tarkata, aiding them in the Konqueror's new war on Earthrealm. In Chapter 12, Kabal and Stryker carry around MP5KA4s which they use during said invasion. In later games, Baraka accused Kano of selling defective weapons to Shao Kahn's forces, although Kano refuted the accusation claiming the problem was the weapons were used by Tarkatans.
Originally in the MK (2011) Beta, Jax had an Submachine gun on his back but it was removed later on for unknown reasons.
In Mortal Kombat X, Jax and his daughter Jacqui have variations that make use of machine guns in their Heavy Weapons and Full Auto Variations, respectively.
In Mortal Kombat 11, The Terminator, Spawn, and Rambo make use of machine guns, the Terminator's being exclusive to one of his Throws and an amplified special move while Spawn uses them in special attacks and his Fatal Blow, respectively. The Joker uses a Tommy Gun exclusively to his Party Pooper Fatality.
