What is the most used machine gun?
the AK-47 is by far the most used machine-gun to date, it is estimated that 1 billion people have been killed with this weapon in armed conflicts ranging from Africa to Eastern Europe to the Middle East to Central Asia to Southeast Asia… Except that the AK-47 is not a machine gun, if you want to get technical - it's an assault rifle, whereas a machine gun is a support weapon, usually crew served. In which case, it would probably be the PK machine gun, followed closely by the FN MAG.

What was the American machine gun in World War 1?
Americans used mainly French machine guns such as the 8mm 1914 Hotchkiss mg and the Chauchat (light machine gun) which was apparently very unreliable due to grit and mud jamming the gun. The reason America had such great machine guns from then on, was the need to have their own machine guns but also to eliminate French unreliability. America then made machine guns such as the Browning 1917 mg and the BAR light machine gun (for walking fire) which soldiered on through to the Korean War. Cheers Big John
