Water cooled machine guns have a fantastic military history. Best known for their watershed appearance during World War 1, they forever changed the face of war. Their supreme reliability meant they could be thrust into service decades later, with some even finding use today.
Today, we'll take a look at three classics from the era, including a Vickers Mk I, a Colt Model 37, and the always recognizable Russian 1910 Maxim.

The coolest M1910 machine gun I saw was used by a Ukrainian unit and featured a buttstock of tube steel, an improvised bipod, a telescopic sight and a suppressor. That is truly technology that spans a century.

These guns are legends in their own time , they killed a lot of men , but saved allied soldiers by the thousands !!

Very unique if you're the seller, mixed-up mess if you're the buyer.

If you know history and know about John Browning you will quickly discover that America likely would have ceased to exist without Mr. Browning.
