Thanks for the great thread!
Living in CA doesn't give me much of a chance to shoot or view machine guns.So when I do, it is a great treat.
Many years ago I visited the now closed J. Curtis Earl Machine Gun Collection at Falcon Field,in Mesa AZ. What a amazing collection that was.

Have you ever visited the Tojhus Arms Museum in Copenhagen Denmark? If not,add it to your bucket list.
It is suppose to be the largest weapons museum in the world and I believe it!
I visited it BC (Before Kids) ,when I had money. The firearms display began with cannons made of cast iron rods,bound together by cast iron straps.It ended with Honest John rockets and most every firearm in between.
The machine gun collection was very impressive.Almost every variety of machine gun made.Many in the original shipping containers.
The staff had to throw me out at closing time. Those Danes are so punctual!
