No! Machine-guns are long range weapons, they can fire up to more than 1,300 meters away! But the thing is that machine-guns can fire more than 3,000 bullets per minute.

What weapons did ancient Israelite use?

Offensive weapons in use at this time can be divided into three categories according to their range. Short-range weapons were used in hand-to-hand combat and included the sword or dagger and the spear. Medium-range weapons were designed to be thrown at enemies a short distance away. Occasionally spears were light enough to be thrown, but the shorter and lighter javelin was better suited for throwing. Long-range weapons could be thrown or fired at an enemy further away. Examples of long-range weapons include the sling, used to hurl stones, and the bow, for propelling arrows. On the other hand, many other objects served as weapons when nothing better was available.
