Anyone want to have a go at this sucker!? This very same optic (same serial number and accessories), I have the pictures to prove it! Sold on this forum, lost in transport, reclaimed, but I lost several hundred dollars on it! Now for sale in Alabama. http://www.mg42.us/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=8061 http...

csxcobra: Your lot will be in the mail today! RichardS: You might wanna save those shopping bags I used for wrapping! Bil is secretly collecting Norwegian Household items (just ask him about that egg-carton!) He might pay a premium for those :lol: Still a few lots left, but stocks are dwindling........

Still a few boxes of 50 belts left! Sold 5 sets so far.

Excellent work Ed!
Just what I needed. I have only found pictures showing the PT34 in the AA-role use so far! This adds a few dimensions.
Note the picture with the bull-neck officer! He has his line of sight through the handle, as it has folded down again as it is supposed to do!

Yeah, strangely enough, it appears so! The early manuals are full of them, but so far I have only found two pictures of the drums in actual use. But given the fact that it actually was a issue item used by the troops there should be SOME pictures out there! Oh well, will still use a few more days to...

Thanks fab, but those are all pictures of the Gurtrommel 34. I am looking for pictures of the Patronentrommel 34 (The saddle drum!)

I am writing an article for my homepage on the Saddle drum for the MG34, but really need some original photos showing the Patronentrommel in use. Contributed photos will of course be credited! Any and all help appreciated!

All correct, but that was probably why the German postwar army made a product improvement and invented the hooked tab! Although it takes a little more brainpower to attach it doesn't snag so easily when shooting!
Even Bil can manage that Darius!

Well, got the sequence wrong....

Some more pics. I can't really tell what the finnish is! Last picture shows three of the different models (might be more!)

Price is down, postage is up

This craddle will accept the Mg3 / MG2 / MG53 and sits on top of the standard M2 tripod (for the M1919A4). It has a recoil absorbing system and a remote trigger mechanism. The trigger can be actuated by both thumbs! Manufactured by the DISA (Danish Industry Syndicate). The tripod and T/E mechanism i...

Thanks! In the mail on Monday.
Still more available though!

same to you Bil, and to the rest of the forum!

Got more than one lot of these. so don't worry Bil! "Enough for every one this this x-mas" (And a "how-how-how")

Offered is a lot of 50 ammunition belts for the MG34, MG42, MG53 or MG3. All belts as-new (used once), postwar made. Priced at 200,- for the lot including shipping and Paypal fees.

No longer available!

I have always wondered why they stamped some of the smaller and more fragile parts at all...........

I didn't know which index to post this, but I am trying to learn about the different waffenamt variations. Does anyone know of a web site that shows pics of the different waffenamt variations- especially the earlier ones? German Universal Machineguns, Folke Myrvang has some pics on page 393; howeve...

....and Amen to that! Well said Artie, and I wholeheartedly agree whit you! Why they both lack the front sight? My guess is that the Sarco ones at one stage came with the parts installed but were "canibalized" for the standard parts, as they themselves couldn't be used as-is. The French copies do no...
