During WWI the US trench guns were very effective against the Germans, to the extent that the Germans threatened to execute any Doughboy they captured with a trench gun in his possession. Allegedly, General Pershing sent a message to the German staff to the effect if that ever happened, he would immediately issue a "Take No Prisoners" order to his troops. And that was the end of that.
