GURPS High-Tech Weapons Table 4e pg. 8 has the GE M134 at ST 20 and the Molot NSV-12.7 at ST 19. Most of the comparable Gunner weapons in 4e Ultra-Tech fall in that range. So if Lifting ST is factored in such as the Tenshi’s Lifting ST +3…

Someone with a training regimen specifically focusing on lifting heavy things could probably get access to those same Perks (which I assume are associated with grappling styles) and thus to a level or three of Lifting ST - and [4] is more readily achievable than [10]. Granted, the weirdness of how the Lifting skill works muddies the waters a bit, but at the very least I could buy a non-combat style that included Lifting (and probably stuff like Hiking or whatever Porters use) and gave access to those same Perks. Of course, even without being able to get further levels of Lifting ST, +5 ST is fairly readily achievable for a "strongman" type character.

Mostly in MA it's +1 Lift or +1 Strike. It's also definitely +3 Arm ST. If the TG Styles are legal in the campaign the Lift plusses are probably cumulative (up to 3). The strike plusses should probably do the same. +2 or +3 is what PU2 says for the limits of most Perk enabled Traits There's also a Perk that stacks up to maybe 2 for meeting Min ST levels.

The Huge Weapons Perk I often think of as cinematic (I think it debuted in DF, but it may have shown up in LTC2 as well), but if not using Trained ST, I could see it being justified in a realistic setting, although it probably only works with skills that you have above a certain level. But, yeah, there's a lot of ways in which a Spartan could qualify for using a crew-serviced weapon as a rifle, at least for those weapons on the lighter end of the spectrum (the GAU-8 is nearly as out of reach for them as it is for a baseline human).

If you browse Min STs you'll find "tank" class guns that could theoretically be fired by the right battlesuit/enhanced user combo even though the gun weighs 6x or more than what user plus suit weigh. I find Min ST a stat of limited utility though I don't absolutely ignore it.
