Original Note:
The weapon seen here is a .50 cal rifle, not machine gun. This rifle is a semi-automatic and does not have full auto capabilities. The ricochet is from a tracer round, which ricochets much differently than regular ammunition because of speed, size, and weight. http://modernfirearms.net/en/sniper-rifles/large-caliber-rifles/u-s-a-large-caliber-rifles/barrett-m82-eng/ https://sofrep.com/news/5-things-you-didnt-know-about-tracer-rounds/
