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.

The way a machine gun is used depend on what type of a machine gun it is and what attachments and controls it has. Machine guns are generally divided into light and heavy. The FN Minimi/M249 is an example of a Light Machine Gun (LMG), and the Browning M2 .50 caliber machine gun is an example of a heavy machine gun. Machine guns can be portable or mounted. Mounts can be mobile or stationary. Machine guns can also be mounted on vehicles, boats and planes. LMG are used to provide fire support for a team of soldiers and are usually carried by one solder.
