Re: 1st model MG42 Bipod?

I have some of the early 34 legs like those used in that early 42 bipod. Now to look around for the rest of the parts. Always wanted one of those early front ring brakes and of course on of the slab cocking handles. There I'm dreaming of buying a lot of stuff again. I need to sell not buy. Well mayb...

Re: MG-34 belt pull strength is weak - normal?

Try it out or swap out the fcg with another one. I've had interesting ar15 fcg sets before. Also almost all of them have had t...

Good to see your post. Hope all is going well.

Yes, there is a large demand for 3 and 4 cut receivers right now. I've seen the hop in sale after sale. Wish that I could have bought several from Dan.

Re: MGZ 34 Lens Filters

Hard to find. As far as the price that does not sound high from what I remember seeing the last set sell for.
While I could use two sets I'm not ready to buy a couple of sets.
