"The Fire Inside" is a replica of a Japanese Hotchkiss Machine Gun, which was the standard heavy machine gun deployed during World War II by the Japanese Imperial Army. Nicknamed “the woodpecker” by Western Allied soldiers because of the sound it made while being fire, and the “chicken neck” by Chinese soldiers due to its avian appearance.
