It's one of the longest-serving weapons in the U.S. arsenal, packing a punch that few forget — whether they're firing the weapon or on the receiving end of its tremendous firepower.

Nicknamed "Ma Deuce" by World War II G.I.s, some who have fired the weapon consider it the mother of all machine guns.
