Ma duece

Of the CAR-15, M3 "grease gun", M60, GE mini-gun, the Ma Deuce, and the AK-47: The mini-gun. Nothing compares to 2,000 rds/min on LOW speed. For sheer smack, though, it's Ma Deuce.

Limited experience but had a chance to put some rounds through a genuine Thompson M1928A1 once. That was fun with a capital "F" The Thompson was more fun than M3 "Grease Gun" I also got to play with that day.

My only experience in three rounds through a Sten.

Can't say that I've ever met a select-fire firearm I didn't like. Each and every one was a 'favorite' at the time. And each and every one had an intended purpose (some had the same purpose though).
So, my favorite would be the one (or several) suited for whatever chore I had in mind.
I'd like to own an M3 'Grease gun' (while a 'Thompson' is on the top of the 45 acp list, I doubt I can afford one).
The H&K MP5 was 'fun' to shoot and burning up tax payer $$$$s was idea.
The M2 was expensive (my $$$$). Imagine what my dream Quad 50 would cost to operate?

German MG42.

Over the last few years I've picked up a few machine guns ... M16 slightly modified with an Ares Defense Belt-Fed upper. I don't have 2000 RPM but a 100 round nutsack will make my suppressor glow ... in the daylight; also HK registered sear and M-11nine

They are all fun to shoot especially when your getting paid to do it.
I would have to say a KPV is a fun gun but a MK 19 is a literal blast to shoot.
For hand held belt fed stuff I really like an M-60. I have shot a minigun a few times and they are fun, especially at night.
For light stuff a full auto FN FAL is fun but I think a Galil is one of the best shooting full auto rifles out there next to a M-4 with a full auto switch.
For Sub guns a Swedish K and a M3 are a blast but a Soviet PPSh-41 with a good drum is really one of the best Sub Guns I have ever fired.
The Stechkin APS is a hoot too especially 2 of them.
I always wanted to shoot a Maxium gun or some other type of water cooled gun, I always thought it would be fun to hold the trigger down.

And an American 180 was a hoot!!!

For those near San Antonio TX there is a range where one can rent a variety of fully automatic weapons. As an Infantry Officer we got to fam fire all the weapons we might encounter. M-249, M-16 A2, A3, M-60, M-2 and the MK19. I enjoyed firing them all. As a favorite I'd have to pick the M-249 because it was easy to control with just the bipod. The MK-19 was nice because one got to shoot and blow things up at the same time.

I have liked them all equally, but ma deuce was a fav for sure.

I've only shot 2 a Thompson and M2 carbine between then I like the M2 the best

I also loved the mk 19. It will rock a 5 ton, in a ring mount on top.
It's a toss up, but, thump thump thump ma duece...

Ma Duce was a hoot, but it would be a toss-up between the M242 Bushmaster and twin mount 20mm Oerlikon as to a favorite.

MG42 converted to 308. Got to fire 200 rds. A short burst sent about 16 rds downrange. After shooting it I wondered how anyone survived on Omaha beach

We put a building up for the Justice Dept. (FBI) and they had a contractors appreciation day where they had a variety of firearms to try. The old Thompson .45 seemed very slow & mechanical in operation after I shot an MP 5. Fun stuff.

I've only shot one fully auto firearm, so I guess it, by default, would be my favorite. A German MP-40.

M-60

I had to re-read the title a couple times.
Thought it said...'For those you have shot'.
😅
I reckon the subgun would be an UZI... Rifle the AK47 and the top dog.. a Water Cooled Browning.

Even in the military the options for full auto are limited to what you're issued- except of course for someone like Sam whose billet would give him near limitless access to every type of military firearms on the planet.
As a Class 3 dealer I've been able to own or fire a wide variety of MGs, but as far as easy access, dealers (without police letters) are limited to the most common pre May imports- Uzis, Hk-53s, Madsen M50s (there are a lot of them floating around) Walther MPL/Ks, and a goodly number of G3s and FALs.
My favorite is the M12S, and there is a Beretta M12S pre May sample listed on GB:
Frankly, I just can't see the $18.5K. On the other hand, there are essentially no such things as transferable M12S, and if their were they'd be $40K+

M-60 Loved shooting it-Hated cleaning it.

I liked shooting the Mac 10. I’m not sure if you classify it as a machine gun but it’s fun to shoot.
