Pachelbel Canon D, is a beautiful piece of music, I would suggest to use it on a Weapon of War is rather like walking a Women down the aisle on her Wedding Day to "Ride of Valkyries". :)

@Doctorchops As TheJammykiller mentioned the Lewis Gun is air cooled. There are aluminum fins radiating out from around the barrel for cooling. The outer cover is to protect the fins and facilitate the movement of air from the back to the front of the barrel jacket, by design (in theory).
didnt they used to have these mounted on airplanes during ww1 by a rear gunner

@elchoya100 Yes they did... although they were usually in the Aircraft version with a rear spade grip, the cooling fins and cover removed, and anti-aircraft sights.

looks like its prone to jamming. does it jam much?

@matthewcolt1911 Not at all... setting the clockspring tension properly can be tricky and can lead to malfunctions, but when properly set and with quality ammo the Lewis is a very reliable gun.
