The only thing I'd change about it would be it's horizontal traverse speed (needs to be faster) and adding an automatic reload when out of combat( or something similiar).

Have Grens engage enemy.
While the enemy is fighting your grens, move your MG in and set up.
Oh look, the enemy cant fight your grens now because suppression.
Sounds like your just leaving it alone and expect it to handle the squads that walk into its arc of fire.

it wouldn't really make sense if the gunner was the last one to die, but i think it would be better for gameplay. the chain reaction of soldiers arming the gun and then getting sniped off is horrible. It essentially means wiped squad from high dps units like obers.
The PTRS's are fine as they are. Whenever i'm up against Guard Infantry, I always have to be careful with my vehicles or the Guards will completely destroy them. Good range, good damage and fairly cheap; if anything, the PTRS should nerfed since it's ridiculously good for the price. Even in the hands of Conscripts, the PTRS's are extremely potent.

The problem is that suppressed squads can throw grenades at MGs that are pinning them. Maybe they can reduce the range of grenades while under fire from a MG? This would still allow smoke grenades to be useful but would halt ridiculous long range grenade throws from a suppressed squad.

Why not just make it require less suppression to Pin? And does anyone know if suppression is range related? I want to say no it isnt but I am unsure. If it isnt this may be another good thing. The closer you get to the MG the faster you get pinned.

Or increase the close range damage, 1200 rounds per minute at 6 guys one meter away should be a slaughter, but in this game the damage doesn't seem to change at all.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

There is no second small arms weapon with dps as huge as incendiary rounds MG42 on close range, even obers are far behind. And even without incendiary ammo it does 27.5 dps.

Means nothing as vet 1 won't be available earlygame,And due to huge reload animation.Your sneaky attempt at circumventing the problem is noted with amusement as usual.

I never see Axis taking .50 cals and maxiums left on the field, but I always see them taking back there MG42s and 34s. I wonder why...

Well, Ostheer it is more difficult if we're talking about right after battle since they will lose the squad if it's only three men and they only have 4 man squads. I've see plenty of OKW stealing weapon including maxims/50cals with their Volks while Osttruppen tend to steal any weapon they can find.
