For the most part those type of weapons are rarely fired because it degrades the value. Most people that I know that have collectable weapons, usually have the firing mechanisms removed and stored, and they're kept in pristine condition.
Plus you can't just go and buy a German WW2 machine gun and claim it as a collectable unless its fully and completely deactivated.
