"(slang) The MG 42 general-purpose machine gun." I see a few references (mentions, not uses) to "Hitler's buzzsaw", but not "buzzsaw" alone. Equinox 12:06, 27 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

It's not durably archived, but on MG 42 and MG 34 — Battlefield Forums I found "Otherwise, the game would quickly devolve into packs of players roaming around with 100-150 round buzzsaws just chewing anything that moves to pieces.", but otherwise, like Equinox, I mostly find "Hitler's buzzsaw". I did manage to find a single durably archived cite. Kiwima (talk) 00:20, 28 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
In addition, the game "Call of Duty" uses the term "Buzzsaw" to refer to the MG 42. Kiwima (talk) 22:02, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

I am going to call this passed. Kiwima (talk) 07:29, 12 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Kiwima: I don't get it. There is still only one citation. How can you call this passed? Equinox 01:43, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox: I was counting the two cites on the page plus the "Call of Duty" game. However, if you prefer, I have added some cites using the alt form "buzz saw". Kiwima (talk) 21:24, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
