US designer, John Moses Browning, designed the current .50 caliber machine gun, as well as the .30 caliber m.g. in WW1 (1917). Those m.g.'s were used in WW2. The only new types of m.g.'s were the submachine guns that were developed in the 1920's (Thompson's .45 submachine-gun), and the M-3 Grease Gun. Sub machine guns fired PISTOL ammo. The US used the same machine guns in WW1 (foreign machine guns as well as Browning's weapons), WW2, and the Korean War (which used WW2 equipment since there was only a 5 year time gap between the two wars). The Vietnam War saw the US Army's first use of new machine guns, such as the M-60 machine gun and the M-16 Assault Rifle, which was the ONE and ONLY time that the average US Rifleman (Grunt) was armed with a fully automatic rifle for general issue (standard issue). After the Viet War, the M-16's were converted to short round bursts (no more rock 'n roll-fully automatic fire).

What were the technological advances created during the great war?
During the Great War (World War I), several significant technological advances emerged, including the widespread use of tanks, which revolutionized land warfare by breaking through entrenched positions. The conflict also saw the introduction of aircraft for reconnaissance and bombing missions, as well as the development of more effective machine guns and artillery. Additionally, innovations in communication, such as the use of radio and telephones, improved coordination on the battlefield.
