Why does a gun put spin on it's bullet when the gun is fired?
Because a spinning bullet travels in a straighter line, for further, than a bullet which is not spinning. So, in a word, "accuracy" is why a gun puts a spin on a bullet. Not all of the guns put spin on the bullet though. Those that do have rifled barrels(grooved on inside). There are also smooth bore guns that do not cause the projectile to spin.
Does the 50 caliber machine gun have a spiral barrel?
