Image description

Maxim .303 inch machine gun, 1895. Machine guns gave Europeans a huge firepower advantage in colonial battles. Journalist George Steevens heard the Maxims ‘growling savagely’ at Omdurman in 1898. He noted that ‘it was not a battle but an execution’. Known as the ‘Extra Light’, this model was intended for cavalry use.
