I think your statement is incorrect. It should be
"When I fire Machine guns, you can damn near empty your magazine on enemy aircraft to were there are all kinds of aircraft particles and debris flying through the air and the target keeps on flying."

ha ha, true enough.
Thanks for the testing info and the training video, excellent.
When I have had free time in the past (over the years) I have spent it tweaking IL2 trying to get it to run perfectly, over clocking, experimenting with settings, nhancer etc. It has been like a hobby within the hobby just trying to see how good I could make IL2 run.
I finally have it running\looking pretty good, so it's time for me to start seriously learning how to fly (enjoy) the sim.

Darts information is very good, but I question how the gun sights are modeled in "IL2 1946"...
Here is a study I have started and posted over at the Ubi site.

With regards to the use of machine guns, not all machine guns can do significant damage, but all of them can help you save a teammate of yours: I have set mine at 1.000m convergence and many times I use them to scare enemy planes who hunt a teammate of mine. Though I know that I'm quite far to actually damage the enemy in due time, on the other hand some distant mg bursts help scaring him and disengage from my teammate.

Are gun sights adjustable in IL2?

My personnal experience with the MGs of the 110 G2.
Once I chased a P47 that I damaged with my 20 mm guns. But I ran out of cannon shells and he was still alive and running. His ailerons were cut though, and I could easily continue to fire at him form more or less 75 meters.
Well, I shot everything from dead six and got him with my last of the last bullets. (PK)
I typed <gunstats to know hoq much hits I scored on him.... 800 + rounds. And the plane was not even smoking..... If I wouldn't have get the pilot....
The P47 is really a Sherman tank with wings.

Thats what I'm talking about, Am going to go into virtual reality training and try and get better with MG's, but I still prefer aircraft that have cannon fire, I don't hold the trigger down, when dog fighting, I use it for single shots. To me, a single shot kill is very cool.
