Discover the terrifying truth behind the American weapon German soldiers feared more than their own “Hitler’s Buzzsaw.” In World War II, the MG42 dominated the battlefield with its blinding rate of fire — yet it was the slower-shooting M2 .50 caliber that broke German morale. Carrying five to six times the destructive energy of an 8mm Mauser round, the .50 BMG could tear through concrete, vehicles, and — in soldiers’ own words — “everything behind the first man it hit.” Whispered about as the Fleischhacker, the “meat chopper,” some German troops even believed it was banned by the Geneva Convention. It wasn’t. Through combat reports, field testimonies, and ordnance records, this film reveals how one American machine gun earned a fearsome reputation that no rate of fire could match — and why its half-inch bullets became the nightmare of the Western Front.
