Dealer price on TNW MG 34

Does anybody know the dealer price of a TNW Mg 34?

Im looking at a used one with some extras and trying to decide if its a good enough deal to hock some of my less used/played with weapons.

Thanks

e-gunparts (numrich) shipped mine out today. I ordered either this weekend or Monday via the net. Ive had few probs with them as long as I order off the web and dont talk to the phone idiots.

Straight out from the side would have been cooler, but then NEW MG3 drums are $19 from Robert. THe newer nylon ones are probably more resistant to damage and wont rust either. I also like how the latch on the feedtray works. Again, its far from a perfect solution. If I had my way, the drum would mou...

Everybody's happy with the system. Since we're all friends nobody gets screwed over (that bad). We all agree that whoever; A. lays out the cash. B. Gets stuck going to UPS when its 'sig. only'. C. Has to listen to the others continual whinning/nagging/bitching while vender 'X' is taking their sweet ...

The base is bent. I took the whole thing apart last night 'cause I was pissed and planning an little 'red wrench' massage. I can to my senses and decided I wait on Robert. Ive got enough projects cooking that I decided I didnt need to add one more half completed one to the mix. Im gunna spend my tim...

Thanks for the info guys. Im gunna start with 308 simply because of 'gun' time limitations. I just cant always get time to clean guns the day I shoot them. Ive played the corrosive game before and unless one is real meticulous, something will rust. I occassionally shoot 8mm but its only on those, "I...

Taking the plunge - help me from doing something stupid

The PLAN: 1.Order 2 kits (one for me one for my co-conspirator) from Dan - WWII receiver, post war 308 parts. 2. Order manuals from J. Baum and read them. 3. When kits arrive, contact huntsinmtns for internals work, ship parts to him for mods. 4. Mig or stick weld the receiver s- really just get it ...

Well Crap!

I thought that would get your attention. In my new quest for an Mg 42, I talked my single gun buddy into ordering 2 mg3 'pods from Robert. Both arrived nicely packaged (at his house - keeps the wife happier that way -- :D ). So we open up both boxes and as the 'purchaser' (and conspirator) my buddy ...

Thanks for the Ural link.

Im a bit worried about Chinese bikes though having spent hours trying to 'fix' machine tools that were poorly executed - my time wasnt worth it (and I work cheap!). Any good feedback/experience from US riders/owners?

Thanks Tom. See you over at 1919a4 all the time. What type of top cover/feed tray will I need to run nondisentegrating belts? While M-60 links would be fine, I'm imagining my linking monkeys (age 4, 5 and 7) getting izzy 1919 links mixed with m-60 links - lol what a mess. Of course the 5 yo can link...

Ok Im buying either an MG 34 or 42 - advise me

Like it says Im getting a kit and have a few questions 1. Mg34 vs. Mg42? Looks like the 42 will be a less expensive build? 2. Receiver welders/ bolt/ internal mods - are there folks that will do this for a fee. Who are they and cost estimates? I have heard mixed reviews on C2 builder's welding - Im ...
