The Mondragón was a Mexican battle rifle and the world's first[2]automatic rifle. It was designed by Mexican general Manuel Mondragón and was the first fully automatic firearm able to be operated by a single rifleman.
Mondragón began his work in 1882 and patented the weapon in 1887. It was gas-operated with a cylinder and piston arrangement, now very familiar but unusual at the time, and rotating bolt, locked by lugs in helical grooves in the receiver; it was also possible to operate it as a simple straight-pull bolt action. The caliber was 7mm (.284 in) Mauser and the rifle was available with either an 8-round or 20-round box magazine, or a 100-round drum magazine (for variants produced after 1910

El Fusil Porfirio Díaz Sistema Mondragón Modelo 1908 era un fusil semiautomático mexicano. El Mondragón fue el primer fusil semiautomático y automático del mundo2 el cual fue diseñado por el general Manuel Mondragón. Este comenzó a trabajar en 1882 y patentó el arma en 1887. El fusil era accionado por los gases del disparo, mediante un cilindro y su respectivo pistón, algo bastante habitual hoy en día pero muy inusual para su época. Tenía un cerrojo rotativo, el cual se movía mediante tetones que se encajaban en estrías helicoidales de las paredes del cajón de mecanismos; también podía emplearse como un fusil de cerrojo con acción rectilínea. Disparaba cartuchos 7 x 57 Mauser, alimentados mediante un cargador con capacidad para 8 cartuchos. Una variante automática de este fusil tenía un cargador con capacidad de 20 cartuchos y un bípode, como el BAR; el Ejército mexicano empleó un tambor con capacidad de 100 cartuchos en la versión ametralladora ligera de este fusil, producida en 1910.

Great picture I'm using these weapons in an Irish Alternate History on the Easter 1916 Rising and revolution, these things were sold to Germany before WW1, they tried using them as sniper guns but they weren't suitable for keeping in the waterlogged trenches so they were given to the Luftwaffe. Since they could be fitted with a large ammo drum they were used on airplanes till specially built machine guns were provided.
Imagine what a bunch of Irish revolutionaries armed with these could have done against the British army.
