Wow..If you truly think that just because a gun can fire full auto, that makes it a machine gun, you're an idiot. You clearly don't know what a machine gun is. Let me try to put this in terms you might be able to understand. Is the simpsons an Anime? Why not? They're both animated cartoons. Should I go around saying "any animated cartoon is already an anime"? That's pretty much what you're saying about machine guns. Something shoots full auto, therefore it's a machine gun, because machine guns shoot full auto. "The simpsons is an anime, because it's a cartoon. Anime are cartoons, therefore the simpsons is an anime." See how fucking stupid that sounds? (As an aside, the Simpsons is hell of a lot better than virtually every anime (Anime is horrible, but the fans are even worse; they like anime solely because it's anime. Not because it has good plots, story telling, voice acting, etc. Japan doesn't know shit about character development.) Kids these days.
