No doubt about it, the MG-34 is the most desirable belt-fed on my list, though I'm a bit surprised the BRNO factory was turning them out that late in the war, when MG-42 production had become the priority elsewhere by that time. The modern-day MG-3 is effectively the same weapon, and still considered one of the Bundeswehr's crown jewels.
I have a G.33/40 that came from the same plant, and here in Europe, the Czechs had a reputation for producing some of the best Mausers (and MGs) of the day; hence, the weapons produced there under occupation were often destined for special units like the Fallschirmjaeger, Gebirgsjaeger and Waffen-SS.

Stand your ground; don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here. -- Captain John Parker, Lexington, 1775.
