The Lewis gun was considered quite accurate for its time, particularly due to its air-cooled design and the use of a magazine that allowed for a stable firing platform. It had a cyclic rate of fire of about 500 to 600 rounds per minute, which contributed to its effectiveness in combat. However, like many early machine guns, its accuracy could be affected by factors such as barrel heating and the skill of the operator. Overall, it was a reliable weapon that performed well in various conditions during World War I and beyond.
