@joannars That is correct, however the physical machine gun is embedded inside the actual propeller itself, giving the illusion that it is firing in sync through the propeller gaps.
This design allowed for a forward-mounted machine gun to fire through the propeller arc without needing complex synchronization gear, a technological hurdle that plagued early tractor configuration aircraft (engine in front, propeller in the beginning) during WWI.
